It's a total rip off.

This is why the fakes exist and will sell millions of units world wide.
I completely agree which is why I have absolutely no sympathy for companies like Ming Cycle or Brompton whining about fakes.

Take it from George Lin: If you want to prevent fakes then forget about IP rights and build a product worth it's price. Novel design and quality workmanship can't be faked; So if that's not what you're selling then your prices better be low!
