Easy to tell thats a fake. Just look at the fuel and oil caps, the stickers, the bolts in the top cover and recoil cover, and the operator presence lever and throttle trigger. Few more things are a dead give away. Cant see it in the picture, but they have a yellow wire behind the recoil instead of a blue one and all the serial numbers are the same I believe.

Did you do report this item? I can say for sure they don't seem to care about keyword spamming but counterfeit they should be pretty concerned about. What with the fake pocket books/hand bags the legal precedent is pretty well established, at least to my understanding. Maybe they would only act if the manufacturer complained. Reporting would help the buyer at a later date with a complaint one would think.

Ive noticed some are doing a better job in the fuel and oil cap area, but as you mentioned there are several other areas to check. When the description sometimes read 25:1 fuel/oil ratio thats a dead give away to a fake.

its been going on so long it aint funny, ya chase one counterfeiter off and another pops up. Its going to be up to the buyer to protect himself.

I'm not sure I would recognize the saw as a fake from just the picture, that one looks pretty decent to me. But location being in china and the broken English are clues enough I wouldn't touch it. I feel bad for the people that get suckered into those.

I doubt ebay cares as long as they get their fees...
