This is a great first step but the review system needs to stop commingling too. I get a bad produce can be bad from all sellers but then you would see that when you try to buy from someone else.

Good point. I’ve also seen where there are completely different products as different SKUs of the same product listing. Just yesterday I was looking at some chopsticks, and when I went down to the reviews, everyone was talking about a wok. Sure enough, I could buy a wok from the chopstick listing. Insanity.
They also need to fix the problem of (good) reviews for one product getting transferred to another (lower quality) product.
I actually created a review to warn people that most of the reviews were for a different product (even provided photos, showing the old/new; showing the huge downgrade), and Amazon nuked my review because:
> After carefully reviewing your submission, your review could not be posted to the website. It appears your review had feedback on the seller.
Yeah, so Amazon won't let you post reviews warning others about this either. The review itself was about the LISTING not the SELLER.
It seems like it is easy to get good reviews on some product then just switch the product completely different. Do they not have ways to prevent that??
