• "the Trust Urban Primo 2,200mAh Powerbank, which we purchased from Amazon Marketplace, was so badly put together that when charging, it started to smoke and melt."

    Hmm. Did Amazon respond to this?

    "Amazon told us that sellers must follow selling guidelines and those who don’t will be subject to action, including potential removal of their account. The products in question are no longer available."

    Doesn't sound like they test anything then. So Amazon are basically ebay when it comes to cheap Chinese shit. Awesome.

  • I wonder how they can sort that out? Not sure it's possible to test all 606,000,000 items that they distribute...

  • They batch test, they sub-contract testing, they only buy/supply from vendors that have already tested their products. There's tonnes of ways to avoid selling dangerous shit to consumers.
