I understand that people are mad/annoyed at copiers but saying "China is the worst", and "I'm sure it's a piece of. S... Like the rest of THEIR stuff", sounds harsh and borderline racist to me. Just enjoy your authentic GG product. No need to get so worked up about it. And in regards to the comment "like the rest of thei s...", I'm sure you used "chinese" product during your early vaping career, like attys, cartos, Ego etc. I don't like copys, but if I would get upset eveytime I see a LV knock off bag or a GG knock off, I would be miserable. It's a waste of time. Let's just enjoy the real deal and ignore the copies gracefully. BTW, this is in no way a personal attack (Serpent, you know I owe you) but let's just be a bit more sensitive before kbocking down a country as a whole ;)

I agree with silverrock and I believe that some of you are overlooking certain aspects of this thread. Yelling "Chinese" and "China" is just not professional, and it just makes some of you no different from those hardcore religious mongrels who create wars and conflict. Have some respect and handle this situation more professionally instead of acting like immature kids.

Big thumbs up and hugs for you two silverrocks anddokbilee... The world needs many more people like you to be a peaceful and harmony place.

I do agree with you, never treat people with hatred, beside we are talking about some Chinese companies, not the entire Chinese nation.

Thanks Vinny. I just want to see more posts about improving the GG products, innovation, and methods on how to take care of "our" GG products, rather than seeing threads like these where people inflate their pride and spread words of hate.

If we talk more and act less, those "chinese" companies will win in the end.

you're wrong, if something gets suck you can say, if a country invades the world of counterfeit products and almost always made ​​in total disregard of safety rules for the buyer (said toxic materials and highly dangerous) using labor with wages from hunger and no health or social protection that man has conquered in the west after hundred years of hard battles, i say do not they make my interest - that of the common man - and therefore i give my despise.
if all this produces additional benefit to powerful economic lobbies and mafia, my feeling is a lot of despise.

You seem to have a rather strong opinion about "Chinese products". I rather buy local but unfortunately that seems to be almost impossible in most cases. I'm sure the Blackberry I'm using to type now was made in China. Let me know how you are able to live without products made from China. I think we need to be a bit more sensitive and not disrespect a whole country. This is about a mod made in China trying to look like a GG, let's not get carried away here. Take a good look around your house and I bet that more than half of your stuff was made in China. This isn't a politics 101 but a mod sub forum, let's keep it in perspective. It's just another mod.

Thank you for making my point a bit more clear by stating that we are not talking about the entire nation but some companies :)

So if someome comes in your house while you are sitting on you couch and proceeds to remove your belongings, you should just kick back and "gracefully" let them do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This thread is not an attack on chinese people. It is an outrage of theft that has been going on for so long without an uprising or protest, that people have not only become numb to it, they are accepting of it....and participate in it!!! And the more people participate, the faster the world economy will be driven into the ground. This isn't just about GG people!!!!
This is a common Chinese practice of business and you want to say how unprofessional WE are being....common.

If you don't voice the site of injustice, you will be swallowed up in it and not even realize it before it's too late.

Ι mean that we cant stop complaining about copies because we will forget from where we start in a while my dear and copies will ruin the world:)
I don't really understand what you mean Imeo. You know that I love your products and probably would still smoke if not for my Stealth; I don't like copies of any kind. I'd rather have ONE nice purse than 10 knock off's, same with watches or mods.Would I get upset if somebody stole my songs and pretended they wrote them (not that this would ever happen), of course. Everybody that who knows a bit about mods is aware that GG's are outstanding products and in a completely different league than the copies.

The best we can do right now is showing to the world that china copies our thoughts and we all blame that. If you have a better way to suggest we can here dok.:)

The bad thing is that if all copies comes from a country then you blame the whole country Vinny. Of course noone says that all Chinese are like that!! But we have to name those blatant copies, so we name them China

I agree dok, we have to act more and thats we are doing every day as you already know. But keeping things right is another matter too. If noone complains about anything then bad people will take advantage of the world. Look at the politics. If noone complains then we are all dead because they will do whatever they like. We dont live in a peaceful world even if we would like to:)

"Made in China by the lisence of the company" is different that "China copies everything" my dear Silver. Of course we use China products but we must not use China stolen from another country products. I dont buy anything that is made in China and it says "Armani" just because they stick a label on their product
You seem to have a rather strong opinion about "Chinese products". I rather buy local but unfortunately that seems to be almost impossible in most cases.

silver dok and Vinny, you have points here but I think you miss the real deal. GG people are very kind, very clever and very proud. So you are. So lets see in depth this issue. And the issue is that those China people that copies GG and everything else are common thiefs and thats it if you agree

This is getting out of context and I will not go back on my word about this issue being handled unprofessionally. I agree, it is wrong for some of the companies (who are not just the Chinese but also Americans) to constantly create imitations and therefore commit theft but America and other countries are also to blame. Some of us even support the Chinese by buying their products unknowingly (Apple products, and pretty much 90% of all electronics in your household), and therefore we help support their economy and these imitators get a share of it.

What I'm trying to say is that constantly making threads such as this one in the GG section is not helpful. We might as well make/rename this place from "The GG" to a Anti-counterfeit section. At most, what we are doing is promoting their products by making these threads.

Again, I would rather see threads about improving the GG products, innovating, and helping new GG users instead of introducing them to these hateful threads. This thread is no different from those squabbling politicians who get nothing done other than spreading their pride and condescending nature.

why is it hateful to call a thief a thief? you cant just always stand by and let people steal from you...in the end they might think its ok because noone complains.

It's not about being hateful, the point being is that we don't need more of these threads. Do you think these imitators care about people who complain? Do you think they care about this thread? The answer is a clear NO. Making this thread and more of it is no different from standing by and watching. It doesn't take a genius to tell what is real and what is fake.

Tell me, what is this thread/post accomplishing?

there are different ways of doing things, thank god we still have the ability to judge those done well and those done evil, to recognize the originality of the idea from the mere reproduction at low cost.
thank god we have the opportunity to take advantage of the fantastic imeo creations and i not want to miss this wonderful opportunity.
golden greek do it better!

There are 100+ other channels on the GG set my friend and most are exactly what you would rather see...I enjoy those as much as you. But I don't see how discussion of a real world problem that is directly related to ecig products as well as the health of the world economy will hurt the community. It's not about spreading hate, but rather awareness of the consequences of the continued path of supporting these business practices, wherever they are occurring. It just happens that China is by far the most aggressive with these practices. And to be fair, my concern is not really with the companies but rather the people who so casually and knowingly support them without thought to the long term effects.
I'm certainly not trying to convince these companies to stop stealing because it's wrong but if I can convince a potential buyer to think about a bit, then how is that a bad thing?

That is never a bad thing, and yes I agree & share your concern about those who support them without thought. But if you look at the first two pages of this thread, you can clearly see what I'm talking about. I have a few really good and dependable Chinese friends who are aware of what is going on and are actively trying to stop it. Seeing those few "generalizing" posts puts a bad taste in my mouth even if they were not intended to be.
