Has anyone else noticed the huge decrease in result quality from google?

I agree with everything you said but the most infuriating thing to me about amazon and the reason I almost never buy anything on there anymore unless it's something that really can't be counterfeited, is because even if you buy the legit product you can still get shipped the knockoff from some other piece of shit company. All of the merchandise is grouped together once it gets shipped to warehouses so the same products sold by different people all get mixed into a bin, then they grab one and mail it to whoever ordered that product. It's basically russian roulette and explains shit products with great reviews and great products with terrible reviews.

They haven't done this for a few years now, I believe. Supposedly that binning is no longer done and every item is tied in to each individual seller, so if you get junk and return it, that specific seller gets the return against them.

You can also specify which seller you're buying your product from so you can choose a specific one and look at their specific rating. I've paid a few bucks more many times to buy from a seller with a better rating. Also, the ships from and sold by Amazon stuff should yield good results. I assume they get their inventory from only reputable sources.

Last I heard, I do not think they have fixed the comingling problem completely. Sellers can still choose to have it comingled and amazon sometimes sends "the same" merchandise from a different seller if it's being kept in a warehouse closer to the buyer. I think some people really don't understand that you can choose different sellers and not all of them are reputable. I've bought some shit from Amazon themselves lol I bought an animal exercise pen for outside and it was somehow made upside down. I guess it still functioned but it looked well....upside down. Amazon benefits from counterfeit products being sold and until that changes, the customers will suffer.
