There are also some that do not care if their product even makes it to the destination.

I started buying 50 lb. bags of bread flour from Amazon during COVID. One of the bags was reported as delivered although it never showed up at my house. I went through the claim process and eventually got a new bag for free. Two fucking years later the original bag showed up at my house, with packing tape crudely placed over a couple of large holes. The flour was filled with mouse turds. I wonder what godforsaken corner of an Amazon warehouse that thing was sitting in for so long.
