Fake Iridium plug at 20K miles

This is a screen shot from a video made by Ivan at Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics.

This fake plug apparently came from Amazon and got only 20K miles. Title of the video is on the photo.
Buy from reliable sources.

that sucks. getting goo quality parts can be a challenge for anything.
Couple years ago I needed plugs. Parts monkey dropped them on the floor and then couldn't understand why I would not buy those. Dropping plugs can do all kinds of damage. Cracked porcelain, and more. drop it, throw it away.
I had have seen them shake brake fluid before handing me the bottle. REALLY!!!!!!
I needed a throttle position sensor a few years ago. Parts counter person person told me they fail a lot? She said " we replace one in our cars every 6 months or so"????????? WTF? Then she tried her best to sell me the $19.95 one instead of the $65 one. She couldn't understand why I would pay more. Sometimes you actually get what you pay for, sometimes not.
Poor quality parts are so common. As much as I don't like to pay dealer prices, sometimes its worth it.
thermostats were a real problem for a long time. Haven't needed one in a long time, after I bought an OEM one.
