Such a great way to put it. Amazon doesn’t care about the quality or reputation of the stuff they (through random foreign listings) sell. Unless you know ahead of time exactly what item you want, shopping on Amazon is just paying a premium to sift through the bargain bin.
- calvinmorrison 4y agoThe biggest indicator missing is value. Like, 5 stars for a 30 dollar vacuum pump... if it works a few times I would give it five stars. For a 300 dollar one. It better pull the needed mmhg perfectly and work for years. There's a use case for both
- leeter 4y agoIf I have to buy something on Amazon I've gone out of my way to make sure I'm buying from them directly lately. Too many issues with them pulling crap like this when it's a third party seller. But by forcing them to be the seller I force them to also be subject for that transaction to my state's consumer protection act. That seems to cause them to care more because suddenly they are on the hook because they are not just the marketplace.
- greedo 4y agoThat doesn't protect you since Amazon commingles merchandise.
