Since when does Amazon have an association like that?
- eropple 9y agoI wouldn't say Amazon does at all. Even their cheaper stuff, like AmazonBasics, is pretty solid. The companies on their marketplace, on the other hand...well, I dunno how effectively other people really divorce Amazon from "Amazon sellers", so maybe the earlier poster has a point.
- jbob2000 9y agoSince their site was full of knock-offs and half of it ships from China? Every time I shop on Amazon, I have to cross-reference with like 8 different sites to make sure I'm ordering the right thing and that the price is fair.
- erik-g 9y agoYou don't _have_ to shop on Amazon. But I feel like being a cognizant consumer is your own responsibility. By that I mean I don't have to cross-reference with 8 other sites, I feel like the prices are fair, and as best I can tell I have avoided buying cheap knockoff items. I hear this complaint a lot (here, especially) but have yet to see much evidence of that.
- bdcravens 9y ago> half of it ships from China A good filter to start with is only products fulfilled by Amazon, and a step further, only Prime products. Granted, the due diligence still sucks, but I spend several thousands of dollars a year on Amazon products, and aside from the products that I know are cheap (like $4 phone cases) I've never had any issues.
