What I've noticed is if there's 1 product, 500 sellers will buy the product on Alibaba, create 500 different "brands", and when searching Amazon it appears there's thousands of products but it's actually a handful of the same product white labeled by many different sellers. The actual number of unique products in many categories is quite low but there's thousands of listings.
