As if the things the US produces aren't predominantly made in China already. Cutting out the middleman can't hurt, especially if the middleman behaves like a mob boss.

I actually stopped buying from Amazon and went to either the producer's site or Aliexpress. Literally the same products but without the middleman.

I once needed to claim warrantee on a broken charger and after navigating all the dark patters Amazon just referred me to the producer's website. It's not even convenient.
