Because Western rivals are mainly retailers first, and marketplaces second.

So their goal is to try to squeeze as much from the end customer as possible, sometimes even with absurd price differences in physical locations vs online.

Promotional events are absurd with how they manage pricing in order to claim big discounts, it's almost insulting.

The general feeling is that these guys are out to get us, while on Amazon you don't get that feeling. And I'm not a fan of Amazon, I just find retailers turned marketplace despicable.
