that's pretty remarkable, 'losing' all ur kindles upon closing ur amzn acct! Dumb question I know, but I don't imagine they send you any partial refund, as they should?! U pay their full asking price at the outset to 'own' the book, or "intellectual property", then they can just pull the plug, & keep the price u paid?!
'SMH' as the interweb dweebs say!
Giving up amzn is principled & all, but it's a great loss to you the buyer. Not only can you find virtually everything imaginable there, not available @ your local retailers, AND u can compare products side by side, read reviews, have questions answered; but there's also the
convenience of ordering a dozen/whatever disparate odds & ends, & the shipping progress emails are also
'conveniently' consolidated.
And it's hard to imagine that, in the end, amzn won't still "win" similar to how big box Walmart & Costco & Home Depot pretty much "won" over the former main street hardware/variety/etc stores... small fry activists who boycott
(amzn/etc), be damned.
