i hate amazon as much as anyone, but...really, just cancel prime and dont use them unless you absolutely have to. Order direct from companies themselves if you can. Shop local. You can't rely on the FTC to do anything and i doubt this will go anywhere. you are much more powerful than you think you are.
That feel when your Etsy purchase comes with an Amazon receipt in the package :(
I had this happen to me on eBay as well. I paid a few extra bucks to avoid buying from Amazon and instead got the item mailed to me directly from Amazon. This is against eBay's policies (you need to have the described item on hand) and may be against Etsy's policies too
That's if Etsy shit wasn't expensive as hell. It's not practical to ship at
