Ironically I'm back to using amazon.com solely for it's original use case - buying books.

Except it's terrible for that (if you care about the condition of your books) because they did away with their book-specific packaging, and now just toss books in a box or bubble mailer with no protection. The majority of the time they arrive banged up. You may as well buy them second-hand for cheaper.
