  • The title is accurate, but it is also poorly worded because of that possible interpretation.

    You’re getting downvotes because people aren’t willing to admit their brains picked the the stupidest interpretation of the headline and just went with that instead of actually thinking about the more likely way it was meant, or reading ANY of the article to verify. They’re reacting to defend that initial assumption, instead of acknowledging that they made an incorrect off the cuff assumption from the headline and just moving on with their day. They’re doing exactly what MAGA does, that they criticize them for constantly, and a source of how we got into this political shitstorm of a system in the first place.








  • Amazon handles fulfillment for tens or thousands of third party sellers.

    Unless the item you’re buying says “sold by Amazon” under the Buy buttons, it’s coming from a third party. Prime shipping only means it is coming from the Amazon warehouse, not that Amazon is selling it.

    It’s been a major issue for years for commonly counterfeited brands, because apparently Amazon’s warehouses don’t differentiate and all those items are dumped in the same bins, so real products get mixed with fakes and third party sellers get hit with returns, reviews, and even bans for fake products. Apparently Amazon puts the same generic item barcode on all of the items, and once they’re mixed into in the bins they no longer can track individual products back to the original seller.
