Not all of these suits are fake. Speedo, Arena and others license the use of their name to local suppliers who make suits specifically for their local markets.
If you are looking for a tiny suit, even a brand name sold in the US, chances are you will be dealing with an Asian retailer, as the US brand would permit only suits sold in the US to be sold by US vendors.
Actually, there are exceptions. I have a Tyr suit that was clearly tagged for the European market, that I got in a grab bag Swimoutlet sale. It's considerably skimpier than the Tyrs sold for the US market.
Part of the fun is in the chase. I think Arena and Asics sell suits in Asia sized similar to Aqux and Seobean.
