I got bitten by this bundle of reviews thing. Amazon was made available in my country some time ago. I went on there to buy video capture device to help convert my parents old tapes to video. I found the device listing I was looking for, with good reviews. Placed my order.

Then a counterfeit showed up, completely different from the spec sheet and the image on the listing.

I filed a complaint, but they wouldn't give me my money back unless I paid to ship it back to half way across the continent, where they sent it from. Despite them just sending me a piece of electronic waste rather than the real product. Nor would they do anything about the listing.

Never looked back at their scam website again.
