      Been like that forever. At least eBay gives honest results.

      Another fucked up feature is how some products show price per unit, or mix units, or simply don’t say.

      1. The listings under Prime indicate overnight delivery until you actually check out or

      3. Returns by Staples is a mess. If the cashier makes a mistake, they say you never returned the item. We are now having to take pictures of returns like we work for Amazon.
