You don't see those same reviews on Modernbikes, JensonUSA, biketiresddirect, Merlin, Chain Reaction Cycle, etc x 10!!!! too many Legit sellers with legit positive reviews of Shimano parts. Now enter Amazon with LOADS of bad reviews on Shimano parts.
There is definitely something funky and odd going on. To Ignore Amazons practice with China sellers and allowing the scams to continue is LOUD!
You can quote all you want and it means nothing to me. I'm delineating my personal experience and Amazon has been superb both in quality, delivery and for the extremely rare problem, return service.
