I have never seen this. It just doesn't happen that often on US Amazon stores. There entire thing, at least in the US, is over blown.
I agree with you, however Anker is a well known brand
Anker is a cheap knockoff brand?
It's not, they just hadn't heard of them
It happens every single time I ever search for anything on Amazon in the US. I have to search through pages and pages of shit knockoff items with fake reviews from other product listing created by "brands" with names that look like a cat walked across the keyboard.
Most the time the items are unrelated to what I'm actually looking for and are only showing up because their titles are "CIGNHKA Road Bike saddle seat chair seat comfort adjustment bike seat mountain seat, gravel, ideal, perfect use universal, black." And then the description has even more word salad.
If you bother taking the time you can find 17 other brands selling the same identical item with the same markings and the same specs (sometimes with the same reviews) with the only change being the name on the product.
If I didn't live in a very rural area that Amazon somehow still covers with their free shipping I would never shop their. I only shop on Amazon when I can find a specific item from a specific well known brand.
Nah, my search results look this like this. Even when I search for a specific brand, very rarely does that make it to the top of the list. Far more often than not, I have to go digging for what I want. It sounds like you have a different experience of Amazon and I honestly envy it. It used to be great
