You're just shuffling the effort of finding a good quality cable upstream to finding a good quality retailer.

Well, yes. The difference is that once you find a trusted retailer, you don't need to put in the same effort every time you need to buy something. You just trust them to have vetted their products for you.

That's okay. I use retailers way more often than I buy cables. Find a good retailer and you can buy several products from them over time, not just one.
