It's a bit like going to a local shop instead of ordering online, Amazon or otherwise. It takes more time to go to the shop, it also costs something (in order to get there in person, or to pass a phone call), it also means having to meet people (which can be an issue when you're not much into meeting people). It can also be longer to get the stuff from another shop.
It's a choice, and it's up to anyone to decide what they want and can do. I still use Amazon but I try to use it as little as I can. Which is already a huge change.
