I’ve been trying to avoid shopping on Amazon for several years. For computer parts, I look at Newegg. For pet stuff, Chewy.
But what about all the miscellaneous stuff? What other websites do you trust when it comes to shopping online?

Got any recommendations for websites that aren’t sketchy?
I learned years ago to avoid eBay and Craigslist. They’re more hassle than they’re worth. People suck.
Maybe try eBay again? I gave up Amazon three years ago and have almost exclusively used eBay. Never had any major issues. And if there were any issues, the seller was super responsive. Also can sometimes save a lot over Amazon on certain items. And I always look for refurbished/used to save a good amount.
The only scam now is people basically listing Amazon items and just ordering them for you from Amazon.
You’ve got it all wrong! They’re the best. IDK where the idea that either are sketchy came from. Maybe that there isn’t a social media profile attached to the ad on like on Facebook Market?
Folks on both sites are just folks trying to sell stuff. There are scammers trying to sell scams too, but that’s everywhere.

The idea came from personal experience. I used Cragislist and eBay all the time when I was a teen and in my 20s. Got tired of dealing with everyone and their bullshit. Too many liars. Too many scammers. Too much drama. Never again.
Facebook market, but same issues with people. But dealing face to face helps somewhat. I despise it and don’t use FB personally, but my wife does and unfortunately that is where local sales happen now.
