> I'm not American, but what do people like in Amazon, as in the retailer?
I'm not American either, but I use Amazon.fr occasionally. It has going for it:
* it's a trustworthy site. If I order something, I'm 100% sure I'll get it or get my money back. If I'm looking for something rather niche like an ESP32-S3 microcontroller, it beats buying on it vs a random site I've never heard of before that it will have longer delivery times and might be a scam or might have nonexistant support
* it has a large catalogue. I can buy coffee, kimchi, small electronics (PWM servo motors), larger electronics (toaster), power bank, USB C charger, mouse, outdoor furniture. It's easy to buy all sorts of stuff off it without hunting specialised physical stores or a ton of different websites. (of course for some things I know and already trust various websites or stores, so I buy off them; but for more generic or niche things, Amazon is pretty good)
* support, returns, delivery are all very good and there is barely anyone that is even close.
