After years of denial and stonewalling, Amazon has admitted for the first time that they have a problem with counterfeit products. This primarily affects the Amazon Marketplace.

As a personal victim of getting counterfeit goods several times from Amazon (and eBay), I thought I'd help spread the word a bit farther. Apparently counterfeit board games is a big thing.

    They apparently refuse to offer it for download in the original German, you can only get the crappy English translation

    A cheaper alternative would be to go with Trump's reinterpretations, which are available for free online. He doesn't have the presence of the original German speaker though...
