That's why I said "sold by Amazon". The drop shippers are all third-parties. Instead of the item saying "Sold by Amazon", it'll say something like "Sold by [some third party] and fulfilled by Amazon".

Stuff sold by Amazon themselves is generally okay, since they're directly responsible for it (no third party they can blame for any issues).

I try to avoid Amazon where possible though. B&H is pretty good for electronics, and I know I'm not going to get cheap Chinese knockoffs when I search their online store.
