Victorinox items on eBay
on: July 21, 2021, 03:47:28 AM
Is there a reason why so many Victorinox items on eBay are being sold from Russia and the Ukraine?  I assume these are probably counterfeit items?

That's good to know because I purchased some 91mm Plus scales from him a few weeks ago.  :tu:

I was just wondering because when I searched for plus scales on eBay, the only sellers were in Russia and the Ukraine.  Is there a reason it's only those countries?

The pair of SAK's I bought from a seller in Russia were perfect.
The reason so many specialties come from Ukraine and Russia is unknown to me.

One of the many reasons I love Victorinox is that there is't really copies that are being pushed as the real deal. And the difference between the Victorinox and the cheapo chinesium stuff is so obvious, even on pictures.
