How is this different when using other online markets. With Amazon you at least know you get it and know you can send it back if it's broken.
How about don't use online markets, especially near monopolies. When I buy Carhartt jeans from carhatt.com I get them just as fast for the same price. I'm not worried about having to send them back because they are counterfeit, and I'm not putting any more money into Bozo's pockets. We've gotten so addicted to the convenience were willingly participating in the exploitation of our fellow people for the profits of a leach. It not even as convenient as it used to be, even before you add in the number of products you have to return.
It's pretty fucking hard not to shop at near monopolies when they have a near monopoly and buying from the manufacturer costs an extra 50% because of the extra shipping. Not many products, even brand name one, are high enough quality anymore to justify that. In fact, Carhartt is a prime example of that; for example, they stopped making their shirts out of cotton and make them out almost entirely out of trash-grade scratchy polyester now.
I already refuted your "buying from manfacturer" bullshit with carhartt.com. Go peddle your boot licking elsewhere.
And I explained why that "refutation" is horseshit. If you expect a nation full of people who can barely make ends meet to pay more for the same product and worse service, you need to compensate them for the cost difference. If you're not willing to do that, shut the fuck up.
You explained nothing, but apparently you enjoy the taste of shoe leather.
