Amazon = evil.

I've quit and rejoined Amazon.com before due to their evil practices, and I recognize the need to save a buck in this sad economy.

But take a look at this and its links, and then maybe you will be more inclined to check out the available alternatives before hitting "Place Your Order" with Amazon.

Is it really worth a buck or two to support such a company?

  1. I read a virtually identical story from a local paper about their warehouse in Chattanooga, TN.

  2. What hurts is that I've learned abebooks.com is owned by Amazon.

  3. to quote the employee in the article "I will never shop Amazon again".

    Thanks for posting this I'd not heard about it and I'm horrified that I ever bought anything from them, especially books for kids in prison, something ironic about that.
