Don't feel bad. I love Amazon. For so many decades it was so hard to buy specialist or unusual books in Australia. First we had to find out about a book then order at the local book shop, wait a month or so and then pay a ton on money.
Then came amazon and they had the most amazing catalogues and everything was available to Australia for the first time and it was cheap and fast.
