I’ve gotten into the habit of never buying anything from Amazon before first running it through a review analyzer. I used to use reviewmeta, but that stopped being maintained, so I had to switch over to fakespot.
it increases the hassle and amount of time to make a decision, but I’ve run into too many situations like yours. And it’s enlightening how many products get fail or bad ratings after being analyzed. I’ve just started ignoring a lot of things with more than 10k-ish reviews. even if I know the product is good despite the manipulation, I don’t want to encourage it further with a purchase

FTFY. I don’t even have an account there.
I only use it for 2 dollar Amazon prime video + gaming sub that I got when Apple App Store glitched.
