This would only work with the assumption that the owners of the product listing would update the version of the product in good faith. It would only be in their interest to do so if the current version of the project would get better reviews than the older version, and what I would imagine normally happens is the old version is made better to get better reviews and is then modified to be cheaper and worse later on.
Huh? If someone acquires a garlic listing and uses it to sell can openers without updating the listing, it won’t work, because everyone placing orders will think they’re buying garlic, not can openers. The scam only works because the listing matches (approximately, anyway) the sold product. If you start sending can openers labeled as garlic to customers, your return rate will be very high and there won’t be any profit.
