I am surprised an auction site that big can't stop something as obvious as a seller of a U.S.A. product with hundreds of items listed as being U.S.A. manufactured in their auction listings, cross-reference to and investigation of an identical listing with a different manufacturing location in their listing. It is such a simple program and would stop this blatant counterfeiting.

I reported the item, but it still sold.

And others will blatantly ignore trademark etc. laws and allow this junky stuff to be sold. There are a couple of countries that totally ignore such laws and create problems for other country's businesses and employees. Ticks me off!
 
I have reported several listings on eBay and not one of them were taken down. I will not buy Spydercos on eBay anymore for this reason. At first it was the PM2 that were the common fakes but I have seen fake/"replicas" of various other models show up on certain other not so great online stores.
 
It's gotten so bad I buy Spyderco and other American name brand knives only at authorized dealers. Buying on the secondary market can be a crap-shoot since even a trusted, legitimate enthusiast might buy and pass on a fake unknowingly.
 
What can we sell to these countries that is a counterfeit of their exports? Alls fair in love and war!
