    All kinds of garbage coming out of Asia with "Ferrari" on it. I was given a polo shirt by a friend who travels to China that she paid less than $10 for. The embroidered logos just don't look quite right (not sure if it's really a horse). I couldn't really wear it anywhere.

    Ebay always has a lot of ripoff logo merchandise for sale.

    My thoughts exactly!!

    At some point, Ferrari SpA may want to change their logo to a --- Public Defender standing under a street lamp.......

    What's worse is that they appear to be in a van or truck of some sort - why?!

    I am not surprised at all. It all went down the toilet when Ferrari decided to go to bed with PUMA. Most of that stuff is cheesy and over flashy.

    Counterfeiters flood the market with product and they're difficult/impossible to track down and prosecute. It's like whack-a-mole. eBay doesn't give a crap because they're making money hand over fist and there simply aren't enough lawyers to fight it.

    Your question is kind of like asking how do drug dealer's get away with it?

    Orange = "TV red"

    Actually the last years of the Tommy Hilfiger supply chain made this revision.

    ALL of the Puma stuff is "orange"......it's quite noticable when side by side....

    They're obviously bootlegged. But in general, I don't think Ferrari produces anything with its name written vertically because of their specific font.
