so many brands on amazon are just junk. the whole concept of branding is worthless because the same stuff is being sold by "different" brands. i rather stick to known names
Doesn't that support the thinking that brand names are actually worth something? I agree, if I'm shopping for something like a USB cable most of the brands are companies I absolutely don't give a damn about. However, if I'm shopping for a cable I don't want to have to figure out which one actually has enough copper to support the amperage demands, so I'm likely to just get one from a trusted brand like Anker or Monoprice and be done with it.
