So tell me, how does the average consumer spot an illegal product listed in Amazon's catalog?

There are some companies that have stopped selling with Amazon marketplace because of the counterfeit items being sold there.
As for how the consumer is to know when something is fake, it's not always easy. But in this case, it's trivial if you know what to look for. You can see bogus publisher, exclusive to Amazon, no DRM, straight quotes, full line for section breaks, UK cover, and not showing as an eBook at the supposed publisher's website. I am surprised at some of the responses in this thread given how I've pointed out the evidence to prove that it's not legal.
