Amazon has mastered the art of selling cheap, crappy goods. At some point Walmart was the leader in this strategy but now Amazon has taken over the lead. I am increasing dreading to buy from Amazon because when you look for something you get 20 different listings of the same looking product with sketchy reviews. Their search also seems very manipulative sorting and showing and hiding of filter criteria based on probably an algorithm that benefits them.
- listenallyall 5y agoBut the quality of name brand goods has declined. The cheap, crappy stuff isn't all bad, some is quite good. I think more people are abandoning brands as they realize they paid a premium for a non-premium item. I think more people are embracing no-name stuff (with a return policy) than "dreading" it as you describe. (and yes, Amazon's algorithm benefits Amazon)
