Amazon has severe product development issues for their goods marketplace, up here in Canada the wind is saying that Amazon's quality is always somewhat questionable with white-labeled resellers that are offering goods available through AliExpress or Wish but at a steep markup. Amazon has shifted from a company that sells highish quality goods of a wide variety to selling goods of random quality of that wide variety which simply can't compete with the markup they're placing on their products. Again, I only know Canada's market over the last few years, but Amazon doesn't really bring a lot to the table - concurrently their cloud services are pretty good... but becoming indistinguishable from their competitors and their price transparency and customer support is crap.

Amazon is the premier marketplace for counterfeits and relabelled crap from alibaba. I don’t know why anyone buys anything from there. I’m at the point where I’d rather buy most things from Walmart.
