Drake, True, the age old adage applies: caveat emptor! I have received thousands of emails offering RE products from companies unknown, locations global, and Gmail address abounding. Also, cost per Watt is so minor an issue compered to buying good performance modules that produces better ROI.

Is this happening much? What is the evidence that this is gong on? I've seen ads claiming SolarWorld modules at over $0.30 / Watt cheaper than the REC modules which I get good pricing on. I don't know the companies. For all I know, they could be counterfeit. They have definitely been advertised as cheap at times as the very lowest end of the Chinese imports. When something seems too good to be true, it usually isn't.
