I mean, yeah, the secret is to not get purchasing advice from the same people who are selling you the product.

Remember the days when we came home from school and played Super Mario Bros. with that mouse? Yea those where the good times

[beefboy]

I remember looking for a keyboard or something and I found an item that said it was a best seller in "trumpets"

[Fallzee]

This is so true.
I get Rubik’s Cubes and there’s different types of them that turn smoother/faster.
And one of the best ones wasn’t a best seller, but one of the worst ones was a best seller🤦‍♂️

[zaccds]

Amazon has more "Best sellers" than the New York Times.

[FunningRast]

It’s Amazon and the third party sellers doing this not the product manufacturers like Logitech (unless they also run a third party seller account like Anker > AnkerDirect).

“Don’t choose Amazon Choice, choose Best Sellers”
Okay
“Don’t choose Best Sellers”
Oh

Once went looking for a book to read on Amazon and found a best seller book saying it was the best seller in adult diapers. I was confused reading that best seller tag and didn't get the book.


Also bought a best seller fidgit spinner. It sucked and broke in less than a week. I had to clean the oil used to help it spin off and replace it for it to spin better. I gave it to a friend who glued it back together and has it. It was way better than it was before it broke.

If I had an Amazon product, I would photoshop the “best seller” logo in. 😂

[Furret_engi]

"how can there be 2 best sellers" new york times: ya see...

[spaghettisaucer]

One time I found a best seller monitor in the washers for a specific thing

[kodinamsinh]

Thanks for telling me about this, was looking for a decent mouse for my NES

[OreSmelter]

I remember seeing an amazon's choice product but a big part of the reviews were negative so I stopped trusting these badges.

[zachcreighton]

I once saw a mouse that was the best seller in “pet formal wear”

"Mac Gaming MIce"
The most cursed combination of words I have ever heared in my life.

[CrispymexicanDUCK]

"How is Amazon allowing this?"

Because it's Amazon. They get paid either way.

[rickpontificates]

Most of what I buy from Amazon is AS PROMISED when it arrives. Very occasionally, I get scammed. It happens so rarely that I buy with confidence (but always keep your guard up anyway)

[aaplies]

Imagine doing this in real life.
“No no no. Go to the nintendo gaming accessories from the 1980’s section”

[prime_hq]

*"Why is Amazon allowing this?!"*
Amazon: 🤑 Money💰

"That best seller badge is a scam"
"A more accurate representation is the Best Seller Badge"
