Probably because these are backdoor or fell off the truck items. Just my guess anyway.

. Also if you do your tooling in a nation that does not totally care about copyright laws, what stops them from just doing another run later.
I bought a buck brand knife from epay for $10. They retail here for $70, (I bought a usa one for my brothers birthday). Looks identical except they don't say "made in the usa".... I'm sure Buck knives are getting money out of those sold on epay.
It is really quite a solid business plan. Someone else pays for the R&D, advertising, brand recognition, and tooling to get you setup! ...
