FAA Slaps Amazon with $350k Penalty for Shipping Violation

I've had them ship a flashlight that came with an alkaline battery labeled as if it had a lithium battery.

I've also found that they wouldn't ship the 8 oz version of a popular homebrewing sanitizer (Star San -- it's phosphoric acid and a strong detergent) to my address, but they shipped the 32 oz version just fine.

As a customer, the annoying thing is that they don't make it easy to request a review of this bogus database info.

Yeah, that happens randomly. I think the 32 oz version of Star San is from a different vendor that is probably not shipping it properly. Or vice versa. (I too have 32 oz of Star San ;)
