Amazon's search ability sucks though.
You have to really really work to find legit items similar to what you want if it not a specific brand name item.
Amazon also allows sellers to list cheap oem copies of products right on the genuine manufacturer page.
For example if you want a phone battery from motorola specifically, you better buy it from amazon directly because all the other sellers on that page are cheap oem knockoffs that may not even have the battery temperature sensor inside. If the product directly from amazon goes out of stock, then a fake takes the place front and center.
Here's a specific listing with this problem but there are thousands out there: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002MZZQVY/ http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002MZZQVY/ Says "genuine motorola" but the product being sold by the vendor is completely fake, cheap oem copy.
