Amazon selling expired Gatorade?

Amazon Resale advertising Gatorade powdered mix that expired more than a year ago?? This is live as of 3 p.m. Pacific on July 7.

That does appear to be the case.
Eww.

Amazon checking expiration dates?

Something like this would not bother me to use but if I purchased it I would want it to be fresh. It would be a good case to get an easy refund and not have to return.

Probably a listing that was never updated or couldn’t be updated due to various issues sellers face. Which is why you should never put something in a listing that would need to be updated.

If my theory is correct, what a great way to help conversion :rofl:

Interestingly, that expiration date isn’t in the listing, it’s on the seller info. The other sellers don’t show an expiration.

I’m more surprised that a grocery product can be sold by Amazon “Resale”…

I am surprised that Amazon allowed the seller to set up a store using Amazon’s own name as part of their store name.

Pretty sure that it’s Amazon itself.
Apparently they just changed the name from “Amazon Warehouse”, which as we all know, only offers “Used” items.

Then I guess we should applaud Amazon’s honesty for listing the product’s expired expiration date?!

Yes, it was Amazon itself selling this. I have purchased coffee from Amazon Resale, but the expiration dates are always very far in the future.

That listing is gone, so I guess someone bought it. It’s probably OK to use, but I’m surprised Amazon would sell it. I buy this Gatorade powder regularly for my husband, and the discount was low enough that I don’t think the date was just a typo.

Friends don’t let friends eat at Amazon.
