counterfit HDD & SSD | Buying

I am amazed at the number of "branded" counterfeit items eBay allows to be listed. Twice I've received branded items that were bluntly counterfeits. The last item was a Toshiba-branded 2.5" external HDD listed as "Toshiba Mechanics Drive". The item arrived in what appeared to be a genuine Toshiba case but what was inside was shocking! It contained an unbranded memory stick and a steel bolt as a weight to camouflage the scam. I took pictures and reported the scam to eBay, eBay refunded me but TOOK NO ACTION AGAINST THE SELLER! The seller is still listing their counterfeit Toshiba HDD drives as well as newly listed Samsung HDD drives that are also counterfeit. In fact I found at least a dozen other sellers listing these Toshiba & Samsung fake HDD. It appears that eBay does not care. I'm waiting for Toshiba & Samsung to sue the pants out of eBay for allowing these scams to continue. As said, I reported the counterfeit (with pictures) to eBay but the seller is still listing and scamming. DISGRACEFUL, SHAME ON YOU eBAY!
