Personally experienced this. I bookmarked a keyboard I was interested in purchasing in a month or so. When I went back it was a completely different item with the same reviews. Just today in fact, I was looking for an office chair seat cushion and found a very telling reddit comment from 3 years ago[1].
I know Amazon has a bulletproof return policy for the most part but I don't want to be hassled with returning everything. This just results in me just not using Amazon. You may be able to justify it for large purchases because of Amazon's return policy but for something as mundane as a can opener or seat cushion? Just shop elsewhere.

- travoc 5y agoYou don’t have to return it. Print the return label and attach it to whatever you want.
- BoysenberryPi 5y agoI try not to make a habit of so brazenly committing fraud.
- ratsmack 5y agoI believe that is what most people would consider as being dishonesty and fraud.
- TheSpiceIsLife 5y agoTwo wrongs are two wrongs no matter which way you slice them. Still, it’s an amusing comment. Amazon is complicit in aiding a third party to commit fraud. Not all of us are just, up right, mature adults, of sound mind and strict morals. Sending them back a steaming pile of dog shit is kind of amusing.
- estaseuropano 5y agoNo, because some minimum wage worker has to unpack it. You don't tskr revenge on the people responsible, but on a poor sob that just wanted to earn a living.
- TheSpiceIsLife 5y agoWhy should they care, they get paid the same for packing / unpacking the fraud.
- jacob019 5y agoDon't be an asshole.
- TheSpiceIsLife 5y agoUnless you’re a giant corporation run by giant arseholes aiding giant arseholes to commit fraud.
- AlexandrB 5y agoWhen a corporation does it it's not "being and asshole", it's "maximizing shareholder value" and is viewed by some as a good thing.
- moneywoes 5y agoWrong, they look at your life time value before accepting blind returns
- placer 5y agoYou’re not on Reddit. We actually frown upon dishonest and unethical behavior here.
- anonnyj 5y agoI received a different bike light than I ordered on Amazon (a literal Chinese knockoff) and submitted it for a replacement because it worked poorly. What I got back was another Chinese not-what-I-ordered knockoff, but it worked well... So I kept it. Even though I came out happy it further inched me to my current position of "never buy from Amazon".
