• Amazon removing description from used and other third party items

    From Pluted Pup@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jul 15 18:45:56 2024
    Amazon has removed description from every third party
    purchase I've made. The description may be critical,
    whether it is used or new, a partial set, an item
    differing from the ephemeral description Amazon may
    attach to it, condition, etc. They still allow me
    to see who I purchased an item from, at the moment, but
    customer-hostile Amazon has revoked third party
    description from the list of orders. The last I
    see of the amazon description is when I bought the
    product, if I didn't now have to do my own file keeping
    for every third party purchase.

    This is yet another Amazon downgrade.

    Amazon has deleted seller descriptions for books too!

    Seller descriptions are a vital part of the used
    market and sometimes with new books too.
