I'm sure this whole thing is because of the wooden plug craze that we're now seeing. There are a lot of really talented plugmakers out there and some plugs are selling for crazy prices at both retail and on ebay. Most guys will be loyal to the originals and some might switch over to try the knockoffs. If they're bad quality, they'll get a reputation and won't be around very long. If they're decent, they'll probably sell mostly to people who aren't serious plug junkies like a lot of us on here. I like fishing quality wood and even some plastic (Superstrike).
This is how I look at it. If I can pick up a Tsunami knockoff for $15 or a Hab's Jr. for $18 - $20 (I think that's what they were selling for at SWE), I'm going with the Hab's Jr. because I know it's proven.
