Same here. I stopped buying commodity electronics items (cables, power supplies, headphones, etc.) on Amazon, because of all the fake products that claim to be 100% original.
Even the Amazon basics brand does not live up to its standards. I recently bought an Amazon basics USB/Lightning cable, "Apple certified". The lightning plug was so lose, it fell right out of the iPhone.
- nommm-nommm 10y agoIt's not just electronics, Amazon is full of fake everything and because they allow commingling of inventory a fake can be sold and shipped by Amazon.
- lsaferite 10y agoThis was an eye-opener when I first heard about it. I cannot fathom the thought process that allowed them to do this. It's such a black mark on the brand. FWIW I order a LOT from Amazon.
