> The better analogy in this case would be to an AmazonBasics USB cable
What's the story here? I purchased on (that failed quickly) and then another - which also failed - and gave up on those. I've actually never found a USB cable (that I often use as a charge) that I liked, but I've never set out on a quest to do so...
Is the AmazonBasics USB cable a well-known lemon?

I've only bought AmazonBasics lightning cables for a while now, they work great IMO. I've had maybe one or two fail out of a dozen or two that I own, and its failure was caused by pinching from my car console.
Are there issues when anyone can provide a product? Yes. But this would certainly not involve Amazon opening the storefront to allow selling any sort of drugs, but rather them sourcing generic product themselves and selling it as private label.
I would have no problems trusting this product to be genuine, just as I have no problems trusting their other private label products. It's a different sort of issue.
