What is the purpose of telling somebody to do exactly what they just told you they already did, and insisting that it will work when they just told you it didn't? Your comment is tantamount to gaslighting.

Hi there - "gaslighting", seems a bit extreme? I'm just offering some help. The thing with Amazon is that it's super fragmented and you have to complain through the correct channels. After six years I'm still struggling to navigate at times. General Customer service team members' KPIs are to just close tickets, that's all they care about. Go to the Product page and click "“Report Abuse”" on the reviews. Or email the support team and ask them to escalate the ticket to Seller Performance. Also complain to seller-performance@amazon.com

  I have done all these things myself, and I still see the seller accounts live, or name changed. Around 10% of items I’ve ordered have been either fakes of name brands, didn’t match the photos, or had a seller review scam thing going. It’s not an outlier, it’s standard.
