Amazon is an enormous marketplace, with departments from home and garden to automotive and industrial. The marketplace is made up of items offered by a variety of different merchants, both companies and individuals. If you're buying from an individual, the person likely doesn't have the reputation that a large and established company does. You can take a peek inside their seller profile and look at what other buyers have to say.
