Honestly, it’s mostly the returns process that I feel make Amazon a better place for “direct from china” stuff. I do a lot of electronics hobby work and I can buy the same part from Amazon, Ali Express, or direct from fly by night companies in China. The latter two are generally cheaper, but the quality tends to be more questionable at times and I can’t really “return it for my money back” like Amazon.

Not without tariffs, sadly
