I'd be interested to have more detail than the tweet to understand the specifics.
If they are saying Amazon is producing and selling these themselves, then that's a big deal. If they got a shipment of them that are counterfeit and are selling those, then it's a slightly less big deal IMHO, but still a serious problem.

- Marazan 10y agoYes, Amazon is producing and selling these. That is what makes this so outrageous.

- billpollock 10y agoThat was the case with Linux Command Line. It appears to be the case here as well
- thirdsun 10y agoThe problem, as I understand it, is that Amazon mixes inventory from various sellers as long as its the same product. Or appears to be. It makes sense on paper but obviously doesn't work when counterfeit products slip into the stock. If that's the case, ironically enough counterfeit sellers might actually end up having original products shipped / fulfilled by Amazon, which might add to the confusion, e.g. positive customer reviews on a bad listing.
