I don’t think m that’s happening in EU. Most of the clothes I see on Amazon are the same as I find on Temu. Only the prices are higher on Amazon

I'm not sure what you mean. Temu has nothing to do with this.

* people buy something on Amazon, return it due to defect or just don't like it

* product is currently sold in lots via auction by Amazon via bids, wholesale (not on amazon.com, but via other channels)

* 3rd parties buy the lots, sort, and re-package and sell on Amazon

As Amazon joins all listings for "shirt brand $x colour $y" into one product listing, this means that the original seller of the shirt, even the brand owner, now is competing with its own returns.

Not sure how to make this clearer.
