  I was thinking they were all guilt of this within the first paragraph. You use to have to beware on eBay, but the Amazon marketplace is just as full with counterfeits and bad products that it's like the new Wal-Mart. Newegg and Reverb both do the marketplace thing too, but their volume seems to be low enough to be hit with unsavory shops. I heard about the problem with Google and locksmiths and was very careful the one time I locked my keys in my car without a backup a few years ago. I refused any locksmith that didn't quote an absolute price and found a local one that only charged $60.
