More than 90% of ‘genuine’ Apple chargers and cables sold on Amazon are fake
Over the past year I&#x27;ve gotten increasingly frustrated with the overall Quality of the Amazon shopping &quot;experience.&quot;<p>I used to be able to trust Amazon. I could simply type in the type of item I wanted, search for the highest reviewed &#x2F; rated and click buy.<p>Now, I have to:<p>1. Wade through the Ads and crap products to find what I actually searched for.<p>2. Read all of the comments, perform some type of judgement whether these are fake reviews, sponsored reviews, etc.<p>3. Figure out if it is &quot;Fulfilled by Amazon&quot; or sold directly (I only recently realized all of the &quot;Fulfilled by Amazon&quot; items get commingled, so I&#x27;m getting basically god knows what).<p>4. If Fulfilled, now I have to research how reputable the selling company is. Just yesterday I found a company selling baby formula, whose domain name was registered last month, and via a privacy service!?!!? If you can&#x27;t list your business address, I&#x27;m not buying from you.<p>5. Now I need to determine whether the sold by Amazon item is fake or legit. Lets hope some other sucker buys it before me and posts a good review.<p>At this point, I would rather just goto Target or Walgreens, CVSm etc and buy the damn thing. Taking 20-30 minutes to research every purchase is getting very old.<p>...But hey 2 day shipping for $8&#x2F; month right!
