Same. Amazon is just another ebay at this point.

Both have everything you can ever want and more, but way to much hassle to know if what I buying is legit and if it’s from a legit seller.

Amazon used to be my first option for years and now is my last.

For most non-brandname electronics and gadgets Amazon is just an Aliexpress frontend with a different skin. You can get the exact same stuff from Aliexpress, usually cheaper.

For well known brands you can find decent deals on Amazon sometimes - unless it's a knockoff/fake.
