How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits

I just stumbled upon this website and they have branded products such as Nordost and Audioquest at about 10% of the normal retail.  How is this even possible and if they are indeed fakes, how come companies like Nordost do not sue them? Truly puzzling.   https://www.aliexpress.us/w/wholesale-nordost.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.search.0

Is the "Nordost" wire sold in bulk?  The banana plugs and spades sure are.  I have seen some pretty nice rolls of wire available.  So, if this is true, is it infringement?

It is if they are using the Nordost name.

Chances are they are exactly what Nordhost makes but not "authorized" by them. It doesn't matter anyway because the "real" Nordhost cables won't sound any different than these versions. You're mostly paying for the name.
