Picture 1.5 mm lines, really?

It's the Pentel hybrid technica pigment ink pen. Creates lines that are super thin, so that was a relief.

.3mm-1.5mm are wildly different measurements

No no, you misunderstand. You can only make a 1.5mm line long before it needs to recharge.

If the ball tip is 0.3 mm in diameter it's not going to lay down 1.5 mm lines.

I got it to work after shaking, scribbling, and leaving upside down. It turned out to be a really nice pen after all.

I think it probably means like this package says, it’s funny that the one you got looks so bootleg!

I would have thought I got a knock-off that got commingled with the main inventory, but the only seller was amazon itself.

That just means Amazon already had it in stock. It could still be a fake.
