I would like to know if this is an authentic / real HKS SSQV Black Edition on eBay :

Here is a pic as well from the same seller :

 

it looks real i dont think they can sell fakes with the real name. did you see the shipping its $50.90

 

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.

 

Yea I went thru his whole feedback and nobody (that paid for it), complained and some even said it was authentic and not fake So I settled for the ones he sold Can't wait to get it

 

thread bump

so.. is this real or fake?? looks awfully damn good, about to "buy it now"! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_W0QQ...KQ3aMEWNXQ3aIT

 

bump before i buy this ish!

 

i have a real one.. but the box looks a little off to me..

hold on, let me look at my box and compare.


edit: yea, my box looks the same, my colors are faded, but that could be cuz i have florescent lighting in the garage

 

that and the fact its on ebay

 

hks is so heavily faked these days i would only buy from a listed distributor. with the closing of hks usa parts are even more rare

 

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

 

that link didnt work for me, but if its that cheap, its a knock off.. I paid 250 for mine locally at a shop.
