Default Counterfeit Bows on Ebay

Every so often I peruse Ebay just for the heck of it. I've occasionally bought something, usually an accessory. I've noticed that lately there is an abundance of bows with "names" on sale. Many are described as "stamped" with famous-maker names, such as Pfretschner or Morizot, etc. Right now there is a "Louis Bazin" for $325. Recently I e-mailed a seller of a "famous-name" bow, and asked if he/she would guarantee that the bow in question was authentic. The response was "I guarantee only that the bow is stamped with that name". I'd like to know how people are getting away with this crap. It's infuriating! Caveat Emptor.
