My customer here in town has found and is now in possession of a pair of counterfeit Focal speakers bought from.........E-Bay, the scammer of all scammers. Focal USA is now aware ot this and is working hard to rectify this problem. The bogus speakers look every bit like that of the real Focal speakers, but sadly looks are deceiving. Just goes to show what lengths a scammer will go to make a buck. E-Bay has continually been and will become a even larger problem in this industy as it is a dumping ground for stolen and non working equipment as well as of course, the knock off equipment like we have just discovered. If the deal is too good to be true....it usually is.
