They deem many products to be interchangeable so they will take &amp;quot;Fulfilled by Amazon&amp;quot; stock and commingle it with stuff from third-party sellers.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.amazon.com&amp;#x2F;gp&amp;#x2F;help&amp;#x2F;customer&amp;#x2F;display.html?nodeId=200243180&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.amazon.com&amp;#x2F;gp&amp;#x2F;help&amp;#x2F;customer&amp;#x2F;display.html?nodeId=2...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;I use Amazon a lot but I do not trust them at all.</text></comment>

Amazon is shady as fuck and an untrustworthy retailer. The way they treat employees is beyond atrocious. Amazon makes Walmart look ethical and honest in comparison.</text></comment>
