My wife and I purchase a lot of things from Amazon. We're taking a more critical look at what we buy ever since we had a baby.

We bought our car seat and stroller from Amazon, and we were honestly not sure whether it was certified for use in Canada. I shouldn't have to doubt any purchase I make online from a reputable retailer, but it seems Amazon no longer makes the cut for me.

For what it's worth, the car seat _did_ have the right stickers, but stickers can be faked too...

There's an absolute ton of fake climbing gear on Amazon, claiming to be legitimate brands and certified. Furthermore, goods from different suppliers are often mixed together in Amazon warehouses. So buying from the brand's own account doesn't necessarily mean it came from them!

I would strongly advise not getting any safety equipment like a car seat through Amazon.
