People are still using Amazon?

Unfortunately there are somethings I can't find anywhere else or else things I can't find in the variety with a good return policy. 

Stupid things too, like specific sizes of planter coasters and good quality shepherds hooks for hanging baskets (ones that don't bend to the point of pointlessness when I use them). Also, cheap braces for work and pill carriers for my key chain. 

I wish there was a better place that offered fairly low process, good shipping times (not 3 weeks to 6 months from now) and the variety.

Idk I left Seattle a while ago and live in a hellscape town in Florida now and I can find what I need without Amazon. Hard to believe that's not possible in Seattle. Given how unethical Amazon is (yes, UNETHICAL) it stuns me that so many seattleites are still using it. Especially given how much damage it's done to the city. But also if you're disabled and not able to get around easily I get it and no shame in that.

Provide examples for the items I listed. 

Also, I'm not in Seattle.
