Once I bought from Amazon a pack of 4 or 5 USB cables from a seller which had good reviews. Once they arrived, they all broke in a matter of 2 weeks. I mean every single cable in that pack was busted after 2 weeks of use.

Based on my infuriating experience with the product I posted a 1 star review stating that all cables broke. After a week or so of posting that review I started to be spammed by the seller with offers of a 10$ or 20$ refund and a brand new pack of USB cables provided I recanted my review. By spam I mean the seller sent the same canned response about 7 or 8 times repeatedly bribing me to recant my review.
