LOL yeah cos its DHL Express but I think they are covering much of the bov cost with that too haha - that's the eBay game nowdays. The best ones are the iPhones for like $9.99 and shipping is $300 - I guess doing that reduces their selling fees, etc. lol. Gotta do what ya gotta do to survive these days...

Ok enough of my eBay ramblings lol - anyone else say its real too? I thought it was kinda cheap thats why am checking with you guys

the fact that it's out from out of the country screams fake.

I have indeed verified with hksusa that this is fake. However, I did find a pretty good deal on some real ones on yet again eBay lol - this guy seems very legit and even in his feedback they say its authentic plus he is right here in U.S.

If you guys are interested, here is the link - not a bad deal I think, for a real one :

I just got one from ebay a few weaks ago not sure if its from the same guy but thats what i pretty much paid for mine, works great and the instructions looked real and so does the packaging, i got a free hks key chain because he had to back order them because of the sunami in Japan.

Seeing that its 69 bucks and free shipping im going to go out on a limb here and say FAKE !!!. You dont get real products that cheap. thats below dealer cost on that BOV. People dont sell stuff below cost thats real end of story
