> You can probably tell at a glance that a “Chanel” handbag going for $20 at a flea market is fake

Amazon sells these exact items with Prime as well.

I don't believe this one bit. There are blatant fakes being shipped through Prime. They're not flying under the radar or bait and switching. Go on Amazon and search "Yuangu belt" -- you will quickly find Gucci & Hermes fakes being shipped through Prime. Are you telling me their "counterfeit measures" could not detect this before allowing it to be sold with Prime?
