Walmart's online store is a mess of 3rd party options now too. I went looking for hair clippers at the start of the pandemic and all I could find were no-name brands offered by third party vendors on their website.
- cjsawyer 6y agoWhat’s left? Target and Best Buy?
- acomjean 6y agoI've had good luck ordering directly from companies. For me it was Nike, a yoga mat company, and some local toy retailers and a frame company. I still buy stuff from amazon, but not critical stuff. I knew things were going bad, when rock climbing gear was being counterfeited.

- bcassedy 6y agoYeah I've had good luck with Best Buy.
- jacques_chester 6y agoWell then. From my comfortable seat outside the arena, this seems like a squandered opportunity for Wal-Mart. (Also: is it Walmart or Wal-Mart?)
- lotsofpulp 6y agoYes, unfortunately even Target is getting into the 3rd party seller game. Which I wouldn't care about as long as I have an option to filter for only items sold by Target (or Walmart or whoever) and them stating they don't commingle on their website. I just go to the brand's official website nowadays and pay whatever they ask so I don't have to research what channel it's coming from.
