Amazon, Walmart, Target do a lot with their store brands. It becomes more and more tempting to buy just from those because I (presumably) don't have to worry about counterfeits (where Amazon co-mingles everything that's supposed to be an "Apple") or review rigging like this.
What ends up happening a lot for me is fraud fatigue: I go to buy something and after 20 minutes of studying I don't buy.
Quality doesn't even stand there either... I bought some amazon branded speakers (cheapy ones) that I used at work, didn't really need much... liked them... bought a couple more, all dead within a few months of use.
There's no quality control on anything anymore it feels like sometimes.
