You know it's a knock-off when...

I took a trip to Philadelphia to hang and party with the locals...um, two years ago. I'm just a bit behind on posting about my US travels (or all of them, for that matter).

We toured the city, including the Chinatown area, which had some amazing stores. At the dollar store, we learned that many knock-off products are available at low, low prices.

We saw the item below. I can understand why the price was low. What the heck is a "Sharpei" pen? Is it wrinkly, like the dog? Or did someone want to cash in the Sharpie brand of permanent markers but didn't want to infringe copyright too much?
