Shit, Amazon’s already doing this with other stuff. They have a giant counterfeiting problem across the board, and internal systems that only make it worse by fulfilling an order from one vendor with stock from a different one if that happens to be closer to the customer.

I first started hearing about it around the 2017 eclipse, when people ordering glasses designed to let you safely stare into the sun got fakes that wouldn’t do the job properly, but it seemed to already be pretty widespread by now.
