Are Amazon becoming too powerful? I try to avoid using them to buy things but seems they want to monopolise the world shopping market

It becomes difficult to avoid them when they're occasionally the only place that sells the exact thing a person needs.

I was looking for a particular bathroom LED mirror a few months ago. I knew I had to spend a pretty penny to get it, but I was getting ridiculous prices from specialist local places in the region of £300-£400. I went on Amazon and found an identical mirror to the one I was looking for at £150. Difficult to scoff at that when money is tight these days.

But, yes, there is a danger of them becoming too powerful and controlling.
