Well, this sucks...

[spacetime]

We all kinda knew it was gonna happen sooner or later. Not sure if this is okay to post here but thought I'd share the info so people can be aware of this terrible disaster.

Let me know if you'd like it deleted.


LINK REMOVED.

I don't think it will hurt Rob's sells and there are a lot of people who can't afford to drop 100's of dollars on some of these mods. A problem we as consumers created!

Great! Notice the description in the "more info" section? Word-for-word from Rob's main page!!

 

[spacetime]

I agree but still sucks, looks like they even ripped the description right from his site.

 

[jhawk]

I didn't even look at it to be honest lol

Problem I see now is that you will have people buying fake Reo's, that pretty much looks like a 1:1

 

[NancyR]

It does suck

I don't know where this company is physically located but since Rob has a patent, if they're in the US I'm pretty sure he can smack them upside the head.

I saw this on reddit earlier and posted in the "general" section but, asked for it to deleted because I didn't know if it was OK to post this type of info. After thought was maybe just post it here and send a PM to Rob, as a heads up.

Operating in Shenzhen, China

Not startling most clones come out of china

Funny it took them so long. I guess there seeing the obvious swing in popularity to bottom fed devices and figured they copy the best one..

I doubt thats even an accerate photo of what there selling cause it looks like a reo.. even has a ss 510 with adjustable center pin.

Hopefully they know they can't call rob when there's a problem!

Yeah, I was kinda skeptical on posting it myself. I don't wanna lead the blind down a forbidden path.

Maybe I should change the thread title or something. Whatever you guys think is best, just let me know.

Rob knows..this is not new.

You'd think they would have cloned the LP.

This picture dates back to as early as November 2014:

No Joke

Old news and more advertising for China. Clone on Wayne.

 

[dbrandt01]

The price for a Reo is well worth it for the family environment and the great customer service from Rob. I'm not against clones, but that is one I'd never get.

 

[Filthy-Beast]

I think they even stole the pictures. That looks like Rob's new adjustable 510 in there.

 

[Misantroll111]

I cannot talk a really good mandarin and I don't think they will ever answer if I call, but then I have Rob, soooooo.......
