I missed the link, but if its what I think it is, then yes I have seen it too.
Trouble is that items such as a copied 'Maxs' are ACTUALLY being bough by firms in the UK. I was on a getout last week and a fairly reputable company had a fair few of the 'Maxs'.
The people who make them are strange. Out of interest I e-mailed them to ask about prices (I was interested..........just interested - I promsie!). The next morning I had three or four people randomly add me to MSN messenger from the company, but no e-mails.
When I preceded to ask who the hell this random person was, I had the response "ITS JULIA FROM CHINA!!!"
Very strange.
