So true. I just had two Meanwell PSUs from Amazon delivered and the package was indistinguishable from the usual AliExpress job.

Are you saying they were fake? I've started getting all power electronics from Digikey, Mouser, RS, Pollin etc. because of paranoia over a crap power supply or SSR.
Likewise. A friend was almost killed a few years back by a counterfeit SSR purchased on Amazon. I would love to see them take some legal responsibility for the lethal garbage they let onto their platform.
No clue, just received the package. I was just surprised the at the packaging.
