The reason for this is the reputable products are all sold out. The usual response would be to increase prices to keep them in stock, but currently amazon bans sellers who do that because of price gouging laws, and so sellers list their stock on other platforms instead.

No, I've bought oximeters on Amazon in years past and there was no General Electric, Sony, Samsung... It was all knockoff no-name low quality.
I don't think General Electric, Sony or Samsung make standalone consumer pulse oximeters.
The point is, there was no recognized & respected brand that sells a high quality product. Just a bunch of fly-by-night operations.
