People have to do due diligence to check that they are getting the best value. I don't assume what is presented to me is automatically the best. This suit seems like they expect the seller to promote the best deal without them doing any price comparisons which is ridiculous.

Fair trading laws are broad and complex and vary widely by place to place. There are many restrictions on trading practises which mislead customers. Amazon employs a myriad of practises designed to do exactly that. Some of them detailed in the article. I’m sure they think they’re skirting the law to the legal side, but experts are going to determine that now.

Yeah you're overpaying. Half of everything on Amazon is cheap plastic shit made for pennies that 50 different Chinese companies then reskin with their weird sketchy company name and sell for 10000% markup.

Yeah but it's got a ton of bias for action, if the only action that matters is profit. Day 2/3/4/5 whatever day you want it to be!
