Amazon Dupes Disney AGAIN👀 - Amazon Essentials vs Real Disney Store Items to See Who Does it Better
About this video
(Note: this video’s caption track is in Arabic; this summary is written in English from that track.) RJ says he was browsing inside a merch research tool (named in the captions as Merch Hunter) filtering brands when he noticed Amazon Essentials — Amazon’s own brand — appearing alongside Mickey Mouse and Star Wars listings that seemed to be selling. He clicks through Mickey Mouse shirts listed at $12.99 under Amazon Essentials and compares them with the official Disney Store’s own Amazon listings, where a Mickey Mouse and friends retro-style shirt is $18.99 — and he mentions other official Disney price points up to $22.99. He notes the cheaper listings have limited color options and checks reviews, where some customers say the color looked faded and the picture wasn’t as clear as expected. He says he is genuinely confused: he wonders whether these are misprints or returns being sold cheap, some kind of merch collaboration, or artists who made a deal with Amazon Essentials. His core question is how it makes sense for Amazon to sell an apparent Disney design at $12.99 against Disney’s own $18.99 listing, seemingly undercutting Disney on its own platform, and he asks viewers to share any explanation in the comments.
Key takeaways
- He found Amazon Essentials listings using Mickey Mouse and Star Wars designs priced at $12.99 while browsing a merch research tool’s brand filter.
- By comparison, he shows the official Disney Store’s own Amazon listing for a Mickey Mouse design at $18.99, with other Disney items up to $22.99.
- Reviews of the cheaper shirts include complaints that colors looked faded and the image was not as clear as pictured.
- He offers only guesses — misprints, returns, a collaboration, or an artist deal — and reaches no conclusion about how the listings are legitimate.
- His central puzzle: Amazon’s own brand appears to be undercutting Disney’s trademarked designs on Amazon itself, and he asks viewers to explain it.
