Amazon turned out really weird. I feel like the idea of Amazon should be consolidating reputable retailers together, but they decided to open the floodgates to random people and now it’s little better than wish.com. Maybe they should split the site up and push all the random sellers onto a different platform.
I trust nothing on there anymore, it is very difficult to wade through the crap. All I want is a 3m HDMI 2.1 cable and I don’t believe what I’m getting.
Hey man, I’ve got your cable right here: 10m 5m 3m 2m 1m HDMI 1.4 2.0 2.1 cable male female for Xbox 360 One Series S X PS3 PS4 PS5 Wii U Switch Apple PC iPhone iPad 4K 4:4:4 16:9 1080p 60Hz 120Hz.
Yep, just bought a new pixel directly from the Google store on Amazon. They shipped me a refurbished one that was carrier locked to Verizon. It’s been 3 weeks since I shipped it back and they still haven’t checked it in n for a refund. Prob never buying anything worth more 200 bucks from them again.
Bet it wasn’t google, it was something ‘xingwang productions’ calling themselves google.
Raspberry pi had loads of these during the shortage (still does, I think)… the listing has ‘Raspberry Pi model 4B’ and ‘Visit the raspberry pi store’ and ‘#1 best seller’ and you dig a little and find it’s a reseller who’s shifting at a markup.
Amazon do nothing to prevent companies masquerading as others.
The problem is Amazon puts everything with the same SKU in the same bin. So your “xingwang productions” Pixel phones are in the same place as the official “Google Store” stuff.
I basically stopped buying on Amazon unless there’s no other way to get what I want (or it doesn’t matter that much) because of this. Definitely not touching any food, skin cream, etc from there or expensive electronics.

It’s like chinavasion but with better marketing.

It used to be the safe alternative to eBay… Nowadays maybe it’s the opposite
