knockoff "jdm" honda badges?

i was wondering if anyone has come across the cheap red "jdm" labeled honda badges on ebay. Why are they sold at a much lower price than the legit honda badges? are they made differently? any info would be cool. thanx!

They're way different than the legit ones and it shows, those ones are just cheap plastic and have a tendency to trap moisture inside them and fog up.

the red "filling" usually looks like crap and has fingerprints in it.

I'm pretty sure you answered your own question.
They're called knock offs for a reason, they're usually cheaper than REAL products.
Would you pay $500 for a knock off Mugen product or REAL Mugen part for the same price?
