Lots of spyderco counterfeits on the bay

[Cap’n Smudge]

Seller sun_bo**** has multiple counterfeit/fake spydercos for sale on EBay.
Usually the counterfeits are shipping from China. These appear to be shipping from New Jersey.
Thought Sal Glesser would want to know. Maybe this is all old news. Like I said, I’ve seen plenty on the bay but they are typically shipping from China. These are not.

All that means is the seller bought a large lot from china himself and is shipping from the US.

PS your link isn't linked to the seller, takes me to a generic Ebay motors page.

I get that. More importantly, it allows prosecution under US laws.

Well you have some work to do if you want to make a dent on the counterfeit sellers on ebay, even if it is only the ones shipping from the US.

I think all he's trying to do is bring awareness to the situation...

 

[panoz77]

Is anyone not aware that counterfeits abound on ebay? Link still doesn't work for me.

Ever-helpful panoz.

Ever-helpful panoz.

And this contributes what? Other than getting reported for trolling?

Link still needs fixed OP.

Evidently, not everyone is privy to fakes being sold on the bay of fleas...

There ya go.

What, all of the $20 Spydercos I have been buying all this time aren’t real? The ads say they are authentic...

I hope this clown in NJ gets shut down for good. You can’t really stop the entire Chinese fake (everything) market, but keeping even a tiny bit of the crap out of North America is a good start.

Hope some of you are reporting him. I would, but I cancelled my account years ago. I refuse to buy or sell anything thru that site.

Y’all will be wanting to be taking those fleabay links down before the mods get here. Naming the seller is bad enough.

 

[Bloody Fingerz]

I’ve reported ones like this multiple times but nothing seems to happen...

 

[Cursum Perficio]

A mamba for $42. How obviously wrong can it get?
Nuke the sellers address from orbit.
It's the only way to be sure.

 

[Sal Glesser]

Hi Odog,

Thanx much for the head's up.

People selling clones should be blamed no question about that. But those who buy them really think with $20 you can get the real deal?

I wish this kind of stuff would stop. I hope as a Nation we can find a fix to this before it hurts the real makers of these products.
