China fake bars with squared corners.

They are also packaged in that Chinese ravioli type sheet.
Silvertowne never packaged them that way.

They probably don't have enough personal to police the different sites.

There's a few more listed by the following counterfeit sellers:

Hmm, the second link above from sellit17 should remain unreported.

It is a pretty good PSA, even though the listing is a violation as well.

I've called mints to report Counterfeits before. They don't take it lightly, but I imagine that it's shear resources available to police this stuff. And who in China is going to police it? The problem of Counterfeits will get worse as soon as the price goes higher, and they will get harder to spot certainly
