MAXSAT refunded me

just for the record I did get them to refund. Probably me suggesting that I might involve trading standards as they were selling fake goods helped. Note - they did not refund the shipping costs or pay for me to send it back so I am about £15 out of pocket. I have now bought one from Lavatronic and it has ended up costing me a bit more but at least I now know that I definitely do not have a fake Amiko Alien satellite receiver which will be bricked at some future s/w update.

Why is the word "clone" acceptable when it really means fake ?  (in the case of Amiko Alien satellite receivers). Ebay have not stopped people selling these fake boxes.
