Is this a clone taifun gt?

[nubcake]

Received a taifun gt in a trade. Would like some help to see if this is a clone. He serial number is 6000+ and the screws on the deck are not identical. One has + and one has + with a cross X in the middle as well :S

Sorry but how can you tell? Are the screws to the posts supposed to be different?

 

[roxynoodle]

I have one

One of your post screws is stripped. Just be careful with it.

The screws are supposed to match? It was supposed to be a week old. Looks like I got duped...

Someone used the wrong size screwdriver or really overtightened it or it left the factory that way. Mine has a stripped head on one screw, too. Its been ok for me. I'm just careful and don't overtighten it.

What size screws are they, I have plenty of M3, M2.5 and M2. nubcake I'd send some to you but I'm not sure that it wouldn't be easier to find them in Malaysia
