Walmart, cosco, and a hundred other stores sell a wide range of stuff too. (on their websites, even if it is available direct from the manufacturer's website or other websites).

Is the problem "registered in China"?

No, the problem is that this stuff is absolute junk sold by sellers who face zero accountability even if they put rat poison in your skin care cream, who can keep returning to the platform by making up new nonsense brand names like "FOPEAS" that don't even have a website, as fake and low effort as it might have been if they at least tried to pretend.

This issue is highly specific to Amazon and has been documented in great detail.
