If any of you purchase broadheads online through Amazon.com, Ebay.com or Alibaba.com please be sure that the seller is an legitimate, reputable dealer and that you are purchasing the actual licensed product. There are several sellers who are offering counterfeit Flying Arrow Archery, Rage, G5, Muzzy, RamCat, Bloodsport, Dirtnap, etc. broadheads at incredibly low prices. PLEASE NOTE THAT THEY ARE FAKE.

These counterfeit heads cause problems for everyone who is a legitimate manufacturer or dealer because they are undercutting everyone's prices. The fake heads WILL NOT PERFORM like the real heads do, are less durable and can usually be identified because they come in colors that the real manufacturers don't produce.

Since Amazon, Ebay and Alibaba are technically brokerage houses, they can't/won't do anything to control what is sold through the sites or who is doing the selling.

Let's all band together to help keep our economy and the archery industry rolling! PLEASE, I IMPLORE YOU, ONLY PURCHASE BROADHEADS FROM YOUR LOCAL DEALER, CHAIN RETAILER OR DIRECTLY FROM THE MANUFACTURER.
 
I have seen some counterfeit Rage heads that the ferrule was so soft (aluminum) it bent sideways, and you could bend it back straight with your fingers. These were off of EBay. There is no way that head could have withstood the impact of shooting a deer without failing miserably. It would have probably exploded into pieces, and wounded the deer.
 
I'm currently in China and just listened to a presentation on counterfeits from the Chinese market. In my opinion I'd just make the consumer choice to avoid any online deal that sounds too good to be true.
