Although I have never used McMaster but use Amazon most of the time, I definitely agree. And it's not even really related to taxonomy. The amount of disorganized information on Amazon is frustrating and many times leads me to believe that something is just fake, drop-shit, subpar quality, etc... There's so much "WxHxD: 2", "color: yes", "weight: 34.6 inches" that I just end up buying something else or not at all
My favorite recent Amazon search: looking at LCD displays, one was categorized as “Style: Women’s”
Was this a classic case of review laundering, where a blouse was replaced with a computer monitor? Or did some code somewhere overlap with attributes that normally apply to clothing?
Whatever it was, the categories and filters on that site continue to degrade.
