(32,814 posts)doesn't get is that if Amazon is shut down tomorrow, another online retailer will take its place. Amazon is like the Walmart of the internet, but I still order from other sites too.
Shoppers want convenience, great prices, fast shipping, and excellent customer service if something goes wrong.
Also, parents who have to choose between shopping online with same day delivery (or 2 day delivery) or going to the store with unruly kids (and possibly ending up in jail and/or YouTube if their kid has a meltdown) will choose the online shopping option, regardless of taxes, etc.

(58,785 posts)Amazon is certainly the biggest service we use. So I have to say we love Amazon.
This revolution-level change of course means new problems, not just solution of old ones. But being able to shop incredibly vast markets from my porch and have consumer-rated things promptly delivered to my door is a tremendous enabler of good lifestyle. So is the vast improvement in quality of manufactured goods as a result of user ratings.
I couldn't find white miso of any quality in my town last week, so I bought an excellent brand on line and it arrived 2 days later.
The days when some surprised visitor to our home would ask if we've read all these books and we'd say basically yes are over. The days when I sometimes fill insomniac hours happily shopping good books, bouncing via recommendation to recommendation on an adventurous range of subjects, are here. We'll never have read them all.
Same for some gasket my poor husband needed for a mower aging with him that isn't available locally. No more long strings of calls and long drives to the city to purchase, with always the possibility of coming back without. In a few clicks it was on its way.
Much as I regret losing the local blacksmith and all that came with that, I'm not regretting the revolution that has made all this possible. Yes, it brings problems and adjustments. Next come solutions. But only some of them before we let other problems get shamefully bad first, of course.
