Ironically, I now take advantage of Amazon in order to buy at BB. When I see something I like on the shelf, I check to see if the Amazon reviews are good. If so, I can buy it without the same level of nagging doubt about the product’s authenticity.

Same here! Amazon's a cesspool of Chinese knockoffs buoyed by for-pay reviews, but any item that's also sold at Best Buy must be legit (since BB went through the trouble of sourcing and buying it), so Amazon ends up being a great place for real reviews.
