After receiving a “Logitech” webcam in sketchy packaging from Amazon last year, I promptly returned it and ordered the same model from Best Buy for local pick up. The retail packaging was completely different and the webcam itself felt heavier. The price difference was all of about $15… well worth the peace of mind.
That was likely my last electronics purchase from Amazon.
I've had a similar experience with Amazon. These days it's pretty much books or things I can't be concerned about if they are knockoff. Electronics? No way. Too high of chance for grey or black market quality stuff.
