I worked in a factory, that for economic reasons started buying heavy lifting cradle straps from China. The tag said rated for 10,000 pounds. They ripped apart at 2800 pounds. A couple of our maintenance guys almost lost their lives because of this.

I own dartzeel amp and preamp. I was checking out pricing and noticed dartzeel amp selling for $650 on ebay. I checked into this and they make it look externally the same but obviously not internally. The sellers were mainly from China. If they can make the amp look real I bet is would be an easy process to fake a cable or anything else for that matter
