I’m reposting the stuff I made on Reddit.
To a better, Redditless future!

        God I haven’t used amazon in years. And even then i used it mainly to find something or get an idea. I was looking for a fun gift for my nephew and it’s absolutely disgusting. FUN KID TOY, HD 4K RACE CAR NEW ITEM FORTNITE MINECRAFT.
        That’s most descriptions and the ratings are beyond useless.

          Yup, all 1, 4 and 5 star ratings are basically useless. They are either bought by competitors to lower their rating or bought by themselves to raise the rating. I’ve seen documentary about this stuff. There are groups on Facebook and Telegram (that’s a massenger like WhatsApp) where you get product XY for free (mostly trash from aliexpress/Alibaba) for a 5 star rating.

      Not really, depends where you live. I also know many things are factored in Amazon pricing, like shipping, It’s just a joke.
