It may be because one of the most proactive Ebay fake spotters is based in the the UK
Per capita the fakes should be split 80%-20% between US and UK respectively. But yes, anecdotally, it feels the UK has a higher proportion.

Why is it that UK Ebay in particular has an exorbitant amount of fakes compared to the US version? |

A lot od the European fakes also have the eBay UK listing posted here for reporting purposes to make it easier to report for those of us who have English as a first language. WatchFred finds a lot on eBay Germany but provides the UK eBay link for that reason. |

One reason is a lot of UK holidaymakers visit mediterranean countries where cheap replicas are on every street corner. Much harder to find fakes outside of Canal Street in USA.
