The location where something is manufactured and who designed it or owns rights to the design, trim scheme, etc. are two different things. Just because two items "made in China" does not mean they are the same thing. These planes on eBay are knock-off's, copy-cats, fakes or whatever you want to call them. They generally are not as good as the real thing especially when it comes to hardware, covering, etc. There definitely is no comparison when it comes to service after the sale. That doesn't mean they are necessarily bad airplanes considering the low price, just not the genuine article.

I personally choose not to buy this stuff due to the fact that most of it is stolen from someone else. I don't judge anyone who does buy it but just keep in mind what it actually is in most cases and don't go thinking that it's the real deal.
