Because it takes two days to get to me, then I have to contact support and get a refund and send the item back, then wait another two days to get the item and hope it's real. Or wait two days to get the item, then still have to drive to the store to get the real thing.

And in the meantime, I already used the cable and it burned my house down and now half my family is dead. But yeah, I can get a quick refund no problem.

Why do I care? What kind of ridiculous question is that?



Amazon has never wanted me to return anything, but I guess YMMV. Refunding stuff over the live chat is a breeze.

Sure, you might want to exercise caution with some product categories and time sensitive things.
