I wonder to what extent the clients care. Either way its still paying for a fantasy.

if a person pays for a Nike product and receives a counterfeit, are we saying no harm no foul if they don’t realise?

Nike determines what counts as a Nike product; it they are selling it, it is not counterfeit; It may be poorly made or made in ways you didn't expect, but nor counterfeit.

No, i'm not.

Good. Your initial comment makes no sense.

I'm not retracting my original comment, i just don't think your analogy is related to what i said and in many ways is the opposite of what i said.

If you don’t recognise the parallels then I don’t know what to say really. All the best.

To use your own analogy, surely you must see there is a difference between someone attempting to purchase nike shoes and being tricked vs someone intentionally seeking out counterfeits (e.g. to get a deal)

My comment is wondering to what extent the clients are "tricked" vs to what extent they know (or suspect) its not the real OF model and dont care as long as the fantasy is intact.
