I love Amazon, but refuse to buy supplements from them at this point. Fraud via co-mingling is real, and I’d rather burn down my house from a crappy wire than ingest powder from an unvetted source.

I went back to the old brick and mortar for my protein powder (though I’d also be willing to buy online from non-marketplace sources that take ownership of the supply chain).

Again, I love Amazon. But if they refuse to take responsibility for whatever arrives at my house no way is it going into my mouth...

There are things I refuse to buy on Amazon. Anything ingestible is on that list. I tend to steer away from brands that clearly are just a small set up shop. Often times I will buy something from another website because I just trust that place more.
