Boeing is responsible in the same way a car manufacturer is if a car is sent out with defective parts. Aren't the plugs supposed to stay in. Car owners aren't expected to disassemble their car doors or engines to verify everything is in place. Which car exploded when rear ended? That's not the buyer's fault.

The thing is that Amazon has more negotiating clout. The original manufacturer may be selling to get X profit after bills and such. Amazon can get it made cheaper by negotiating it with other things being made, bringing the cost down. The issue is that they'd never have known this was a niche without the massive data trove to sort and sift. The main issue is the breach of trust and ethics on Amazon's side of the house. Keeping agreements is a bedrock of capitalism too. No trust, no trade.
