> I don't consider selling cheap junk as a scam.

What about selling cheap junk while claiming it is a high-quality long lasting premium product?

while it may be legal, and may be hard to outlaw, it is still a scam

Someone can tell me the product they own and want me to buy is top quality, its up to me to believe them.

Its also a bit of a fool me once situation. If I believe their quality claims and buy a product to find its junk, shame on them. If I keep going back expecting quality, shame on me.
