You never have to worry about it being junk, though. When I order fasteners, metal parts to be machined/used in fabrication, or just misc. supplies from McMaster-Carr, I know whatever supplier they are using will be high quality and the part won't be a counterfeit. It also seems that they tend to stick with US manufacturers if possible.
I agree. Amazon over-indexed on being the world's biggest store and chose to do zero curation. I'm thinking they thought reviews would solve for bringing quality to the top before learning how badly gamed they'd become. Now about half of what I get on Amazon has to go right back. So much junk.
