Has anyone else heard anything about this?
Our club has some of the dodgy 25yd targets. They don't actually look all that bad until you put them next to a "to-spec" target at which point they're quite obviously inferior, which is presumably why they didn't pick it up earlier. You'd have to be looking reasonably hard to tell the difference.

It's unfortunate that they won't sell the off ones for practice, but I suspect they're afraid that someone would inevitably end up putting stickers on them because they haven't got the message. Given that the Competition Secretary's job in most clubs is somewhere akin to herding cats, they're probably right
It may also be that they are (presumably) returning them to McQueen's as Rejects in return for ones that have been done properly, in which case they're not theirs to sell.
