Similar experiences. I dropped Amazon at renewal in January after the ad announcement. The items I ordered went from two days to four days to several weeks to never existing and the products were more and more "fell off a truck" crappy knockoffs - the same reason I stopped using eBay in the 2000s.

Bonus, like you, I find myself making next to no impulse purchases anymore since I can't just fire up Amazon on a whim.
