> Ouch! Obviously not re-badge...

**Ouch indeed. If something looks too good to be true.....

For the record: A mate travelled to China late last year (he is a tech) and 
I instructed him to find and purchase a Rigol 'scope for me. The prices 
asked were not so different to those in Australia. Further: His girlfriend 
is Chinese and performed all negotiations for him. He was unable to obtain 
one at what I consider was a reasonable price (IE: Around $500.00 for a 
model which sells for around $1,800.00 in Oz).
