We are firing on all cylinders

And yet, reviews are still horribly broken and have been for years. Also counterfeit products and books are everywhere on the site.

Amazon is going to have to fix those hugely important things before I'll buy the Kool-Aid that they're "firing on all cylinders", which is just CEO pep talk.

The marketplace makes me use Amazon less now. I don't care if there are 40 5v-DC power bricks and 10 of them are 10% cheaper. I care about vetted products and the confidence I'm buying the product I'm looking for.

Honestly for little stuff like that I'd rather go straight to the source from aliexpress than bother with Amazon as the middleman
