It also makes Amazon a lot less enticing to shop on. If I want cheap shit, I'd just as soon get it cheaper direct from China (Temu, AliExpress). If I want brand name products (IDK - do they even exist anymore?) I need to go to like Best Buy I guess.

    I find best buys store brand "insignia" to be a good middle ground for not being cheap garbage, and being something I can carry straight back and demand a refund if it's crap
