Wow, this is why I am so skeptical about buying my hardware one eBay unless I can really see good pics of the hardware not some stock shot or far away blurry pics. Nice find on the article.

Those pics can have came from some other order.

Oh I know trust me I have been burned before but it is a calculated risk. I usually buy from sellers that are either power sellers with 98% or higher feedback or new sellers with 100% feedback. I recently picked up a 2610XM maxed out for $35 and a 2950 switch for $30 that were legit.

Playing the game I guess. I also order from CiscoKits when I need for Interface cards and cables though since they are the most counterfeited on eBay in my experience.

This is a problem I don't see going away anytime soon unless Cisco keeps all of it's manufacturing here in the US.
Just my opinion.
BTW Veritas how do you keep finding these articles like this all the time? You find a lot of interesting stuff.
