I canceled Amazon Prime last month given that I’ve lost all trust in getting a functioning version of whatever I’ve ordered. This is some next-level shit.
I haven’t had a prime sub in 5 years. It’s not been worth it in a while.
What good is the convenience of having everything on the same website if I have to determine if it’s fake or not?
People are such scumbags on Amazon. If you aren’t paying attention and just quickly go to rebuy something like deodorant (like I just did) you can end up spending over $50 for 2 sticks… I had to actually go to the manufacturers page to find what I was looking for as I guess they changed packaging and all the assholes are charging insane prices for the “old style” package.
Is there a text version? Or if someone watched the video, are these drives sold by Amazon or by third party sellers?
Yikes. Back to Newegg for me!
Newegg is inundated with 3rd party sellers so it’s basically a crapshoot as well.
Sadly yep. Micro Center is just about the only PC component supplier I’ll buy from nowadays, but I have to drive like 4 hours to get to my nearest one
This has been a problem on Amazon for ages. Unless you can confirm the seller on the Amazon listing is authentic, you should never buy any storage devices on Amazon, ever.
It doesn’t even matter if it’s a trusted seller. Amazon puts their returned items back with the new products and they stock the items from every seller together. You can have 10 sellers with a genuine item and 1 with a counterfeit item and have a chance of getting the counterfeit item from any of them because they all share the same stock.
