I'm not seeing 5 million baht's worth of gear in the photos. Would it be cynical of me to wonder where that stuff will be this time next week?

The worth of the confiscated gear is likely assessed through the cost of the real article v the copies siezed.

Things people can do with numbers to make it a bigger bust than it really is, eh?....................thumbsup.gif

Funny they always raid shopping malls for fakes, but never factories. Seems that manufacturing fakes is ok, just selling them is not.
