    IIRC the FB post stated that the cloner had cracked the Yihi "algorithm" and they were checking out as genuine when code checking. I know nothing about computers to even know if that is possible. One tell tale sign was the 510 top cap had a very slight gap between that and the body.

    Maybe @Per - Pink-mule might be able to discreetly slip you a coupon code. Although they probably had their bums smacked for selling them too cheap in the first place lol

    They're going for around £169.00 at several UK vendors- I'm not good with $ but I guess $205.00 is still cheaper.

    Uk price equates to 263 USD!! Pink mule is 180USD after tax is removed which we in Thailand qualify for with 14 USD shipping. 194 USD and buying from an authorized dealer is definitely the way I would go. And actually have ;)

    How do you get the Tax removed??
    It's actually immaterial for me, having already bought 2 second hand units, but it's still interesting.
    It seems that I probably could have bought new for the same price!! Duh!

    Wish I'd known all this about 3-4 weeks back.
    Never mind, live and learn.

    Interesting article- damn close clone, that will certainly fool a lot of folks. Without actually opening the unit up I really don't think it is very easy to tell them apart.
    Better take care, if you intend to buy one of these things.
    Makes you wonder if all the outlets selling them at very good prices, are really selling the 'real McCoy'.

    As you say, without actually seeing it and checking the software it would be difficult to tell

    If you're buying it at much of a discount off of the Yihi recommended retail price, chances are good that it might be a clone.

    From 15 July onwards, they're etching the serial number on the mod, itself....
