Calling them “dupes” is the lingo used in fashion and makeup, idk about elsewhere. I think the distinction is that a dupe is a knockoff instead of a counterfeit.
if you want to pay extra money to buy the “real” product from the actual brand’s website to avoid giving amazon any money, then go ahead. i’ll buy the cheaper thing that works just as well
AmazonBasics is just dupes of popular products. They see what sells the best on their website, copy them, and sell them for a slightly lower price.
When did we stop calling these “clones” and start calling them “dupes”? I guess I’m not up to date on my lingo.

Yeah, I mean dupes exist for a reason, because it works. Amazon has done far worse things to dislike them for.
