Crow, I can't agree with you there. I've heard counterfeit liquors etc are a real problem, but we don't realize how big a problem it is because we rarely find out that we're getting ripped off. The govt. in many cases is the one who's being ripped off the worst as the tax stamps are counterfeit as well and they're not getting their share.

As consumers we might sense a difference in the taste of our Scotch, but as long as we're satisfied by it we don't think it could be counterfeit.

The point is, it could be going on all around us and it's doubtful we'd know it if the counterfeitters are doing a good job. I think if it became public knowledge that a lot of counterfeit things were found in out local stores the demand for a scanner that could identify counterfeits would be quite high.
