Would be pointless, the only people at risk are people like you who don't read the reviews until after they realize they got scammed.

Amazon seems dodgy as fuck, you constantly see reviews of people talking about how they got print on demand books when the page is for a book published by a legit publisher
Idk how people aren't paranoid when using amazon and don't check and double check the seller

If you called them and explained the situation you'd get a refund and an apology but you won't because you're scared to talk on the phone and will do some mental gymnastics to cope with the fact the you lost $14 from a scammer because you're too scared to call customer service

I already received a refund and I work as a delivery driver for rural arkansas and talk to randos all day, I was a tripped out festival hippie in NY for 10+ years before moving here.

Every book I order from Amazon is always scratched up and dented little cuts /scrapes/rips. Idk why when I first ordered from them they were pristine. Now they always look like they were kicked around on the floor a bit before it was put in the box

The only bad experience with Amazon I've had is when I ordered a book and got a different one but it was pretty funny so I didn't care. Apart from that they're usually on time and better than other book sellers.
