The fakes would be easy to spot. Just look for the "Made in China" sticker.

Thats my boss and the company I work for. He has been in China since last Augast. Basically every time he turns up to a customs check point at an airport or else where they turn him away. I've now heard plans of smuggling him over the border, but I doubt that will happen.
So I might need a new job soon. It would be nice to be able to afford robot parts again (I spent less then $200 on parts last year)
