Right? It's ridiculous. Why does Amazon let random, unvetted third parties list products under the Apple brand? I can't even find the authentic cable on Amazon.

Right? It's ridiculous. Why does Amazon let random, unvetted third parties list products under the Apple brand? I can't even find the authentic cable on Amazon. Here's another: https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MD819AM-Meter-Lightning-Cable/dp/B014LFT8H0 https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MD819AM-Meter-Lightning-Cable/d...
Same $19.99 price as an Apple original. Amazon lists "Apple" as the brand. But read the reviews--2.5 stars over 379 reviewers. First review: "Fake Apple cable. Doesn't work."
Under "Other sellers," Amazon.com is listed as an alternative, albeit for $5 more. That one is surely authentic, right? But what if the inventory is co-mingled with that of the other sellers for the same product?
- dahdum 8y agoAmazon will sell the counterfeits just as willingly as through a third party, from my experience at least.
