Where does the "over $1B" figure come from?
> premises controlled by SOW have resulted in the seizure of [...] items with a total estimated MSRP of over $502 million
> premises controlled by JALLOH have resulted in the seizure [...] items with a total estimated MSRP of over $237 million
So that's "just" $739M, and as the press release concedes:
> The street value of counterfeit goods typically is significantly lower than the MSRP
...but we're valuing them based on MSRP?
