I’ll agree Amazon it’s the best company for many reasons. However everything on Amazon isn’t from China. If someone is interested in buying a product like supplements or anything in the natural medicine family, contact the company. Ask them are there products sold on Amazon, Walmart, Target & other sites. I’ve done this a lot over the years. Most companies do sell on Amazon. Many that are small use Amazon, Walmart etc to sell because they don’t have the staff to sell independently.
I live in a rural area & have one natural food store/herbal store. They don’t have most of what I’m looking for. They don’t take returns!
I also don’t trust some brands they sell. I do my research on everything. Just because a product is sold by a company with “natural, healthy, herbal” etc that doesn’t mean all their products are organic, non gmo, don’t have fillers.
Iherb, Vitacost, Tao of herbs are all good sites to purchase supplements & herbs. However they also sell mediocre products. In the end every company big or small is more concerned about the bottom line than the customer. It’s the American Way!

This is a point that gets brushed aside in the "help the mom and pop store" narrative.
I lived in a city where they voted against highways in one part of town. This left the corporations to exist on the outer sides of the city (where the highway was).
This sounds good, but in return, smaller companies didn't want to set up shop because of access. Many of the mom and pop stores that existed previously were so nepotistic and nasty, it had us begging for corporations just to provide an even playing field in our neighborhood!
The lesson I learned was both structures have merit, but when either one becomes selfish, I might as well be dealing with the mob!

It's not a narrative. Make your own website and get off of Amazon. Shopify, Wix, etc. This is a shill post and I have no idea how it got stickied. Just link to the Stamiron website.
a representation of a particular situation or process in such a way as to reflect or conform to an overarching set of aims or values.
It's by definition a narrative.
As I said, I learned both structures have merit, but when either one becomes selfish, I might as well be dealing with the mob. That's not an exaggeration, and those who can read between the lines know what I'm saying here.

I stickied it. It was funny, and useful. I wanted to share it with the community. Once the debate came up for buying it, I had to show my research.
If you hate Amazon that much, you can buy it direct from Stamiron yourself if you choose to buy it at all:
In addition to that its gross that a mod is sticky-ing an affiliate link.
That was submitted to me by one of our users a little bit ago. It helps a Christian based drug rehab program.
Might I remark, you've been incredibly unhelpful in this discussion. You made accusations with hearsay and no facts, and now you're trying to smear me in your other comments because I called you out on it.
I'm glad you're here, but you've got to quit your blue-haired ways. I'm not going to ban you, or do anything stupid like that, but I'm going to give you a stern "knock it off".
From Amazon you say? Probably 99% filler. From China. No, I think I'll pass.
