A. 1. Research before purchase: Before buying, read reviews and check ratings from other customers to gauge the quality of the product. Look for patterns in reviews that mention quality issues. 2. Request samples: If possible, request samples or view the product in person before making a large purchase to ensure it meets your quality standards.

B. 3. Establish a return policy: If you receive a product that does not meet your expectations, ensure you understand the return policy. Document the issue with photos and reach out to customer service for a return or exchange.
