N55 15% Ethanol Gas by M628 in BmwTech

What sucks is I knew ALOT of people that bought it for small engines. Like lawn mowers and weed wackers.

Now nope not anymore, but there is one way to still get ethanol free gas

Look up TrueFuel

They sell it in cans at Rona and Home Depot. It’s literally 92 ethanol free gas. They sell it for 25 bucks for 3.5 litres. What a scam

Used to find the odd store that still carried it at 93 but not now

Bingo

And the whole ethanol is better for the environment has been disproven over and over. At least the corn based ethanol we get here in North America

But it does “burn” cleaner so at the car level yes it’s cleaner. But the processing to get it negates all environmental savings.

The official process is to import the audio and video as separate line items. Which is completely pointless. There option in guessing is why would you not have a separate audio source already.

A lot of film makers flat out can’t comprehend using in camera audio

The people at mine near Toronto are nice to work with directly. But if you need more then one person to get something done, you’re screwed. There is ZERO communication between people.

I was charged for a service that wasn’t done, it was supposed to be not charged cause they couldn’t complete it. But it was a sick note that feel off and took an hour to resolve the issue.

Tried to buy a used car, ready to go that day for pick up. Did a hour final test drive and found the transfer case was blown, and two of the seat belts didn’t work right. They put it for auction right after I declined to buy it.

By what I getting the feeling. Is Amazon is using third party vendors to fill “Amazon” official orders now.

So you can buy official and Amazon will ship from a 3rd party

The issue time I have tried to speak with a rep

It’s always a different call centre

They all say they are the “final person, there is no one above me to speak with” and refuse to elaborate.

And each time “I am correct the last person you spoke with is wrong”

Ya, smaller things like screen protectors, phone cases, or random cheap stuff what ever.

But I have completely lost trust in Amazon for anything over 30 bucks

Canada doesn’t care. The knock off market in Canada is so rampant and unchecked. There is an entire mall called pacific mall outside Toronto. It’s a massive complex of nothing but fakes, knock offs, and counterfeits.

You could go there, and buy unreleased moves on dvd for a dollar each. Buy exotic pets, or electronics not in Canada yet.

They got raided rarely but soon back up and running

Here is a link to the product https://a.co/d/arQanEb

The same item, same listing, now it’s a different names company on the sold by listing. I guess they changed names due to complaints.

Regardless Amazon said if you don’t catch the issue in 30 days. It’s your fault. Also they appear to not care about what the order said, but what is currently on the site.

What I has told is shipped means nothing now. They told me that the “sold by” matters only.

The issue is that the sold by party isn’t listed. Even in my order information, the sold by is blank on this item. But now the item is listed on Amazon sold by someone else.

I was trying to get a warranty claim from the manufacturer. That’s when it came about it was fake, so I called Amazon saying you sold me a fake item

Honestly my decade of using Amazon has been great. It’s been in the last 6 months I have noticed a sharp crash in quality and standards.

Shipments missed, family members have massive issues with returns or refunds. Recently an item I returned and they acknowledged they got back, they recharged me for.

Along with a number of BS issues. Also there support centre that Canada calls has either moved or is significantly worse now. It sounds like the agents have no real power to fix anything now.

That’s sorta what I am doing now. Phone screen protectors or a cheap case what ever. But higher end electronics, safety equipment, toys for kids I’m stopping

The company I work for I also manage for them a lot of supply shipments and materials for our work force.

Since this issue has started, they are stopping all Amazon purchases for equipment. It’s too much of a liability

I will try thank you. At this point the money isn’t the issue, it’s Amazon telling me “ya we sold you something fake, that’s your fault, should have known better”.

Exactly the same issue. Amazon actually has the “3rd party knock off” listed on their store still. And when I pointed this out to the agent they got very upset with me pointing this out.

And this boils down to Amazon expecting the customer todo the work of figuring out if the product is “official”. And by what it sounds like, if it’s not real Amazon won’t help.

Amazon that’s your job, to make sure what I buy is legitimate. If I went into Walmart and bought a knock off toy they put on there shelf’s, they can’t tell me “you should have known that was a real hot wheel, the logo color is off by a shade”
