Nothing new- You get fake nvidia cards in Delhi as well. Not to mention some people relabel cheap motherboards like kobian. Such stores don't give a proper bill (maybe a challan but thats as valuable as a tissue paper) but people don't see that. They see huge capacity for a cheap price and hence common sense goes for a toss, irrespective of the fact they are educated or not.

Yap. May be you're right. That's humanity...
Just hope this kind of information can help to fight back the counterfeits.
How about the retailer stores? Is it common to see fake items?
