I don't think people are getting that yes, all these power supplies have been stamped with CE, ULC...and whatever else. The point being is that they are not actually certified, regardless of what the power supply says.

If someone was to happen to someone who purchased one from a retailer, it would be the consumers choice obviously to pursue a lawsuit. Which could entail jail time and lots of fines.

And a note to everyone that sells them: now you know they aren't certified in Canada, your walking on hot water IMO.

And how often does this happen? What exactly would you be sueing for? Doesn't there have to be some damages suffered or loss of some kind?

I used to work in big box retail, and was best friends with the head of the legal dept. They used to get lots of consumer lawsuits (mostly slips and falls), but never heard of a lawsuit over a label. And we used to buy a lot of stuff from China (almost all of the hard goods).

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
