The difference between a white label (drop shipped) product and a counterfeit made at the same factory on a different work shift is impossible to discern.
You literally can’t know if what you’re buying is original or not anymore.
White label isn’t the same as drop shipped. Sometimes white label products are drop shipped, but not always. And not everything that’s drop shipped is white label.

You literally can. Lots of white label products either aren’t covered by a patent/copyright, or were designed/licensed by a Chinese company. Chinese companies do design their own products.
I get the white-label / drop shipping distinction. It’s why I mentioned them both. I also get that chinese manufacturers can make new stuff too. It’s why I didn’t say shit like “china never innovates or makes new products, they only steal”.
I’m pretty sure most of the stuff on Amazon is from white-label manufactures, not counterfeit.

It’s very much a thing. The smaller the company you’re purchasing from, the more likely you’ll find a counterfeit product of theirs available for cheaper. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/06/how-us-small-businesses-are-fighting-counterfeiting-in-china.html
