I canceled Amazon Prime last month given that I’ve lost all trust in getting a functioning version of whatever I’ve ordered. This is some next-level shit.

    This has been a problem on Amazon for ages. Unless you can confirm the seller on the Amazon listing is authentic, you should never buy any storage devices on Amazon, ever.

      It doesn’t even matter if it’s a trusted seller. Amazon puts their returned items back with the new products and they stock the items from every seller together. You can have 10 sellers with a genuine item and 1 with a counterfeit item and have a chance of getting the counterfeit item from any of them because they all share the same stock.
