Yup, I was under no illusion that Dreo was founded by Mark Smith in NJ. Dreo is the shortened version of Dreoykang&sdkjgsdhkg\*\*##wang. ---

> [@ASV\_Vites](#): > > I’m just saying that the quarterly reports point to Advertising as their profit center. I would venture to believe that the majority of that comes from desperate sellers that come and go. The fact that fewer are coming will hurt I presume. Not only that, is the great and ever-useful campaigns that get drained with obvious sabotage (this morning I have a beautiful $140 spent with $0.00 sales). Amazon doesn’t care Is the beautiful loop of how many people get a loan (likely financed with my reserve money) to pay for those campaigns It’s one joy after another ---

As an American manufacturer I am glad the new sellers have dropped. All you see are cheap products undercutting everything that was already out there. Competition is higher and margins are lower. It’s really not fun as a seller anymore. After all my costs are calculated I’m lucky to make 10% profit. Is it all really worth it anymore? ---

I see the problem this way. Instead of the platform being filled with grey market trash from dumpster divers and 2am CVS tweakers arm stuck in the clearance bin, Amazon has shifted to a CCP private label dumping ground. We have stopped adding products to the catalog and thanks to the massive tax increase in the form of tariffs, we will not be hiring new or replacement employees. Todays TACO announcement did not change anything for us, so we will have to wait for a carne asada, carnitas, or in our case a curry TACO. ---

@ASV_Vites Vornado is a US-based company that originated in the U.S. They sell their products through various platforms such as Amazon and Wal-Mart but they are in the United States. (They even have an antique fan museum which I have visited). ---

> [@Racing\_Stripes](#): > > Vornado is a US-based company Yep. And at least some of their products are dropshipped (by Vornado) from somewhere in the midwest (I think Iowa, but don’t remember exactly). You can buy from Lowes, HD, or Walmart, and from any of those, they’ll have it delivered. I’m not sure if any of their products are available on the shelf anywhere; their humidifiers and filters certainly are not (and work great, once you over-ride the “Low Water” float that doesn’t float). ---

They are based in Andover, Kansas, east of Wichita. I bought one of their fans at Wal-Mart a few years ago. It’s the best fan I’ve ever had.

Amazon does not break out 1PS and 3PS sales on their sales calls, filings, reports to investors, PR, etc. This allows them to run 1PS at a loss to grab market share (an anti-trust violation) at the same time raking in tons of 3PS money (without looking like they’re gouging sellers). This alone tells me the goal is to sell everything themselves one day, as soon as they figured out how to make us redundant and raise their 1PS prices without losing too many buyers. i.e. Walmartify the platform.
