For example, it would be no problem for Samsung or Apple to provide UL safety test documents. But if the online store was going to be a middleman for some generic charger like zzazz or Brikkstek (both are names I just made up) they'd either have to prove that zzazz did the safety checks already - or the online store would have to first get a couple of units themselves and send those units to UL for testing.
Obviously that wouldn't catch a piece of garbage that just stops working after a week, but that's not what I'm talking about.
Like if the charger falls apart and exposed the 120V components, or it lacks fuses and is thus a fire hazard when it fails - obviously it would fail UL testing. UL is just about it being safe including when it fails - it must fail safe.
