This crap has sent me back to physical stores. If they have it in stock, I don't have to wait for it to ship, I just drive there and pick it up. Same with returns too, and exchanges. Same day.
Plus, I can trust that the company itself has probably looked at and tested the products, and has a real product and not a fake. I doubt I'm the only one going back to brick and mortar as well.
It's even worse when you go to the manufacturer's website, order it directly there, and then have it delivered using Amazon fulfillment still despite trying to avoid it.
