Same as if you bought a bad soda at a bodega, or Advil that had been adulterated: the manufacturer, not the retailer.

Setting aside the various snarking about lawsuits, I could imagine this being a more complicated question in that case--Pirate Joe's being an "unauthorized reseller" might be legally significant with respect to liability.

No, you sue everyone. Everyone who has been involved. Truck driver almost killed Tracy Morgan. Did he sue the trucker? No he sued walmart.

Correction: you sue the wealthiest people who can be construed as involved.
