Just ran into this on Amazon looking to buy a vacuum cleaner, the initial search top search results where all refurbs being sold back by the Amazon refurb service and cost more than the retail price of the same vacuum directly from the Shark store. I had to sculp my search to actually get to the real vendor store (Shark) on Amazon. You need to be a query engineer to overcome the perverse search algorithm that goes out of its way to sell you junk and knock off's. It didn't used to be this way and how much revenue is enough revenue when it comes at the expense of the consumers. I can't imagine how difficult it is for regular consumers who haven't developed these skills as part of their job to navigate these sites now.
