Not very related story:
Several years ago, I remember finding on Amazon this featured brand of headphones. They had wooden cups and they were marketed as being eco-friendly, high-quality and built in the US. After a 5-second search on Amazon itself, I found the exact same headphones, sans branding, being sold by a Chinese seller for a fraction of the price.
I used to work at Amazon back then as well, so I tried to find a way to report this as it seemed pretty dishonest to me. I couldn't find anything, of course.
