Walmart Sells Fake 30TB Hard Drive That's Two Small SD Cards
The marketplace-ization (is there a word for that?) of every retailer feels so short sighted.I’ll throw out an example I’ve noticed lately - furniture manufacturers. Search for any item on Crate & Barrel or West Elm’s website and you’ll first see a handful of exclusive pieces that are clearly built for the brand. Keep scrolling and the search results gradually become a bunch of generic third party items that you can find in a dozen different places, often for lower prices elsewhere.I get it, Crate & Barrel sees this as an opportunity to monetize their brand without having to do all that much. Unfortunately it leaves me with a lot less trust for a brand that used to represent a quality and reputation.
