a question about phake electronic goods....
 

Are there such things as..
f a k e Macs
f a k e cameras
f a k e ifones
f a k e ipads

etc etc

can anyone share your opinions...? thank you x

Yes there are ⊗⊗⊗⊗ iphones, ipods, ipads. If there is a product that is profitable then most likely there are ⊗⊗⊗⊗ versions of it available. :mod:

Therefore it is at your own risk to buy and sell onwards.

Dont ask where to find them or what to sell as a profit-maker. Sorry but that's not the forum's role :peace:.

GOOGLE is your friend.

Before you sell these, if thats your plan, please consider having a supplier that:

Has warranties
gives refunds
gives replacements
fixes returned items that has malfunctions

Once you have found a trustworthy electronic supplier that can handle what is mentioned above you are set to make some money, but i'd stay clear of branded electronics, and sell the nonbranded ones that doesn't resemble anything from a major company. Still profitable, just takes a little research.

I've found iphones that are perfect but lacking the logo and software. This is the problems that arise when you send your product off to China to get made so you can raise your profit margins.

:thumb: keep the advice coming like it is and the thread will be helpful.

Anything with a built-in premium because of the brand name is likely to have a knock-off version available.

Forgetting the moral and legal arguments, QUALITY is the big issue. Especially with electronics. I own a real iPod, and it was expensive, but Apple products are also VERY HIGH quality.

I once also bought one that I knew was probably a knock-off (it was advertised as real, but the price was way too low). It LOOKED like the real thing, but it didn't work with iTunes, the sound was not nearly as good as the real thing, and after about three months it stopped working altogether.

Ok,,,,First off,,,,You will NEVER,,,EVER,,,Find a F A K E Electronic product that will fool the Consumer,,,

Take Ipads,,Iphones for Example,,YES They are Built in China

Then they are shipped here,,,,Where the Software is added,,,EVERY One of them

So you can get the EXACT Same Looking Iphone or Ipad,,,but you will NOT Get the Same Operating system,,,and the Moment you Power the Unit up You Will Know---EVERY TIME That the Unit is NOT Authentic,,,,

Then There are ALWAYS Quality Issues,,,The Units May look the Same but the they are NOT Built the Same,,They do NOT FEEL The Same,,,You CAN Tell the Difference,,,VERY Easily,,,

Lets also NOT Forget the Warranty the F A K E will Not have an Apple Warranty that you can go ONLINE to register your Product,,,,

Oh and NO Itunes Software,,,an Apple with NO Itunes,,,Who Ever Heard of such a Thing???

And there is Much Much More,,,With EVERY F A K E Product out there,,Not Just Apple

So if you are Even CONSIDERING Passing off the F A K E for the Real Thing You will NOT Get away with it,,,

But do NOT Worry,,,Club FED has Plenty of Beds available at its Various Resorts around the Country,,,

Hey I wasnt planning on selling phake stuff, never have never will.
I'm asking because I'd like to buy somethings that are offered and dont know if the phake versions existed...

Thanks for your info re how the dodgy ones work.

Yes, a big apple fan here myself. Everything is bought from the apple store, besides the fact you know what you are getting, I also love the service and the buzz of an apple store.

But I'd like to upgrade and there is a guy offering the latest pro book 17' for USD600.. plus postage.

I forgot to mention, he said that there is an international warranty...
too good to be true?

Yes: Obviously "To Good to be True" !

BUT: Not for a NON-Genuine one. :)

Ahhh... my head told me so but the greedy little pig inside said buy buy buy.
Will hold on to the 600 bucks me thinks.. :D

guy also has ifone 4 for 280USD 32g :>

i would even bother buying any electronic goods from china they are all ⊗⊗⊗⊗ and for the iphone 4 its a scam who on earth would sell a iphone 4 for 280 usd come on look at the real world nobody sell that for that price unless it ⊗⊗⊗⊗ or you being scam for your money, trust me nadia don't fall for it, it sounds too good to be true, it probably is

yep.. I figured... He had a whole list and specs LOL. I will keep saving for my MacPro!

I like the part about the "international warranty"!

If it breaks down, they will fix it for free, you just have to pay the shipping charges BOTH WAYS to and from China!

:pound:

99% of ALL That ⊗⊗⊗⊗ Sh!t is nothing but JUNK Anyway,,Avoid at ALL Costs,,better off Buying Used if you MUST Have an Apple Mac (Something I will NEVER Understand)

there are so many out there my teacher bought ifones for her and her kid and to her suprise when she got them they were spelled exactly like that also the apple was a pumpkin and the icons looked like a 3 year old kid had drawn on them so be very careful

Personally, I hate all Apple products. I think there is something better on the market in every aspect. I had the Touch. What a complete waste. Screen was so small watching a movie was useless. I sold it on Caigslist for near what I paid for it. Well, actually I finagled one for free but still. I use a Sony Walkman. The sound is superior and it's drag and drop. Plus I can record on a whim which comes in handy as I am learning guitar and can listen to how bad I sound. Just MO. I think Apple has brain-washed half the population into becoming herded sheep to follow commands. Well that's my paranoia coming back.

not hating on mac but when i asked a mac boy why he didnt use windows he said it made him feel stupid and i can understand that at some times lol

ilove my apples, a sucker for anything pretty :-P plus their photo edit capabilities are great.

true to think about it it made my music video maker alot quicker instead of using 8 video editing programs plus learning them on windows god i miss my mac D:

but anyways :focus:

Hi Greens, I pm'ed you x
