Unfortunately I can't comment below this point, in the thread I started.

You're making the point I'm making. While I don't (to the best of my knowledge) purchase counterfeit items, I don't pretend that certification is anything other than certification. Hopefully certification comes with standards, and aren't self-reporting... but that's not always the case.

Too bad so many of those marks are fake on Amazon.

Are you aware that at least CE is 'self certification' ?

Only when a case goes to court, it will be determined if the certification was rightful or not.

JFYI, there is CE and C E.

That's just a joke that arises from self-certifying 'CE', like 'QC passed' it's just a label that doesn't mean anything but makes some consumers feel good, just because you get used to seeing it and it looks like it must be good even if (or only if) you dont actually know what it means.
