I have been ordering the same Crocs from Amazon for about 8 years now. I don’t think I have ever received counterfeit Crocs from Amazon. I basically go to “my orders” page in the app, search for the last order and then reorder. I do have to make sure they have not jacked up the price because the price fluctuates quite a bit for that shoe I buy. And I make sure the ratings for the third-party seller are very good before ordering. They can definitely have Alexa automate this entire workflow (“hey the shoes cost $20 more than last time. Do you still want them?” Or “the shoe is only available from a different third-party seller. Do you still want them? This third-party seller only has a 90% positive rating”).

How do you find out if the third-party seller you're choosing is correlated with the product that they choose to deliver, or if they're co-mingling inventory? You used to be able to get an answer from support in about 30 minutes or so, so for several years I spent the 30 minutes per order to try to find out, but recently they've claimed they can't say.
