The fundamental annoyance I have is not only Amazon's (apparently) preferential pricing, but the e-Packet from China pricing.<p>As a consumer I can see the advantage to me, but it seems wildly unfair to Mouser / Digikey and the 1000s of much smaller businesses in the USA to have to pay more to ship a small parcel from Denver CO to somewhere in CA, than an e-Packet from HongKong to e.g. Plattsburgh, NY. It has to be hurting the ability to compete of lots of US based businesses...
