I was wondering as well. Also about whether the items he sells are genuine. 
As I follow trends in counterfeiting closely as part of my job, I can tell 
you that everything, from the most trivial household item to luxury items 
like Leica cameras, can be counterfeited, and IS counterfeited. And I do not 
need to tell you which country is the world leader in that business?

Cheers,
Nathan
