illegal. problem for the original producers is finding and suing the fake suppliers by tracing the source to another country, so it'll probably continue for a while.

Selling them is illegal, buying them is not, even if you know they are fake. Same goes for bootlegged movies/music.

Selling fakes is illegal.
They may be second hand. But that's unlikely.

Yes, it's very illegal. They are infringing on patent rights.
