Fakes are still most often sold at flea markets and discount stores, although some have made it into mainstream retailers.

I will simply not shop in dollar stores or flea markets for new products anymore. They are all cheap Chinese knock-offs. I just assume they are all poisonous.

It is not worth a couple of bucks to take the risk.

Used to be that you could buy real close out stuff at dollar stores. Then it was only when they opened a new one and wanted to lure in customers. Now they’re just junk shops.

I rarely shop at them any more. The only things I check for are seeds and reading glasses.
