because I don’t want too much competition when shopping. But I buy soooo many returned unused items from Amazon Warehouse at an insane discount. I have several beautiful lamps from there, I got an unopened 14 inch thick king sized memory foam mattress for like $400, I bought a huge rug for $35, I buy shoes this way, etc…. I use dealforager.com to search for whatever I want and sort by highest dollar amount off and go from there
