Clone Versus Authentic Discussion

[ricks]

You can control buying a clone with the Original name on it by not buying it and telling the dealer it's wrong. Already some one was screwed buying a clone for real right here on EFC. The authentics are not over priced after all they did all the engineering to make sure it works right.

I refuse to pay for something overpriced. Most people say they are way over priced. More people are buying clones because they are over priced.

I really don't get why they put the name and markings on these clones in the first place. Wouldn't it be less work leaving them blank???

You over paid then. They put it on to make money. I've seen them advertised using the authentic name and no mention of clone.

It does state "styled" and is reasonably priced. It is true some people try to pass clones off as authentics.

Styled... got anything else?

Oh please how technical you want the ad to read. Any new vaper looking for a rebuildable would be fooled by that ad. Styled and then the name svoemesto on the atty. It's like buying a Samsung style smartphone with the name Samsung on it. It's stealing the name plain and simple.

Still says clone to me. Says 1:1 and anyone that knows how expensive the authentic is and sees that price will know it's a clone.

So what Happens if I walk into a Vape Shop and they have this in the Case. But they Don't say that it is a Counterfeit?

And what is the Purpose of that "100% Genuine Product" seal if it is not to Deceive?

If someone does that and gets away with it shame on them but that has nothing to do with me. I will continue to buy clones that are made just as good as authentics for a lot less money.

I don't care if you Want to buy clones or Counterfeits.

I was just Wondering why someone would put a "100% Genuine" seal on something Isn't?

Because that is how criminals make money. It is how the world is today, everyone out to make a buck.

My clones have Tobeco on the box. No fake seals or the box.

You called me a liar, now you find more excuses. Time to eat some crow. No matter what you say the fact is it has a authentic seal on it.
