- noasaservice 4y agoWrong. If I buy something from walmart.com and it happens to be a 3rd party seller, MY MONEY STILL GOES THROUGH WALMART. Or at least that's what my credit card statement says. No matter how much contortions Walmart/Scamazon/Newegg want to distance away from 3rd party sellers, they are endorsing the 3rd parties when they allow them on the site.
- kortilla 4y agoCalm down. I’m not endorsing the third party listings. I’m pointing out that’s what this was to explain how Walmart made no purchasing decision at all here.
- noasaservice 4y agoWalmart made the explicit choice to: 1. Allow this scammer on Walmart's platform. 2. Allow this scammer controlled access to Walmart finances 3. Allow the scammer to access the list of buyers of this scam coming from Walmart Just because the actual item is a data-gobbling scam from another company, does not exonerate Walmart from enabling and furthering this fraud. And Walmart materially benefits from fraud, given their cut.
- Havoc 4y agoNot familiar with walmart's store front...but looks pretty direct to me. I don't see a 3rd party seller listed or any indication that I'm in "marketplace" territory here: https://www.walmart.com/ip/M-2-Mini-Solid-State-Drive-High-Speed-30TB-USB-3-0-1-Original-Computer-Portable-External-Drives-Hard-Drive-SSD-TYPE-C-Mobile-Compatible-PC-Laptop-Mac/147971415 https://www.walmart.com/ip/M-2-Mini-Solid-State-Drive-High-S...
- kortilla 4y agoBecause it’s not currently available. When an SKU is available from a 3rd party it shows that it’s “fulfilled and shipped by third party name”.
