MostlyHarmlessWhy does Amazon say things like “Only 2 left in stock - order soon”? No, YOU order soon; you’re the store.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's implication of scarcity to encourage impulse buys. The whole "fear of missing out"/"when they're gone, they're gone" thing.
Which, for the vast majority of products, is complete bullshit.
Whiskers 🇦🇺@MostlyHarmless Yes haha. But increasingly I have noticed #Amazon just becoming an intermediary in the supply chain and goods are shipped direct from the manufacturer - often in China.
It’s a cunning strategy with many benefits
