Amazon and ebay have become overrun by shoddy knockoff garbage and snakeoil sellers. Absolutely no effort by either company to maintain a decent reputation and prevent abuse like sellers switching the product number every time there is a rise in negative reviews. The whole point of a middleman is to add some value in the form of quality control, its why I don't buy direct from China eg aliexpress [no filter and no real recourse].

@roryregina 3 жыл бұрын

Try Aliexpress. "Led 99000000LM Torch" for $21+ $4 shipping :) or you could go for one of the competing ads and get one for $19 and free shipping. I swear they just look at the other latest listings and add a ridiculous number of lumens to their listing title so theirs is "better". Repeat that enough times and we end up with the above listed lights with 99000000LM powered by a cree XM-L T6 or P70 respectively. And who do they get to do all the terrible photoshopping for the ads?
