I bought it at The HUB, Low Yat.

Plan to buy but not yet buy. I only ask the shop to perform the test. The computer screen look too big. The shop owner had no clue as he keep try to adjust the computer setting. I suspect TV setting but no idea as for now.

Is it true that there are a lot of fake M1000HD monster HDMI cable in the market, saw one selling for 200+ only, n look exactly the same even the packing n the cable

yup be careful with monster cable especially on ebay

Sorry bro. I didn't know you took that joke so seriously.

I think you should be able to tell the counterfeit cable by looking at it. It cannot be exactly the same.

I haven't seen the fake one before, so I can't tell you the difference.

To be safe, avoid buying M1000HD HDMI cables at very low prices.

Buy from a reputable sellers (like me ) to ensure you are getting the real thing.

All the Monster cables I'm selling are 100% genuine.

That should be the way as a reseller answer a question, anyway thanks for the reply. To be frank i saw my friend bought a M1000HD HDMI monster cable n he ask me to try to figure out whether its fake or original.I really cant figure out which is which even by going to the web site to find more details still i dont see its fake becos seems to me everything the same n he even test on his avr n seem performing better than his normal HDMI 1.3 cable but the price he pay for is only RM230 then only i suspect it might be fake, but the test, the cable the box i seem really cant tell its fake or original. To me it might be fake or original i cant tell. Thats why i am asking sifu here how to figure fake or original. Since u are the forefront Monster cable reseller u might enlighten us more ( DigitalTech )

i think this statement is wrong, if one is confident the expensive monster HDMI are ori's then a retailer can play the trick import fake and repriced to Orinal prices.

That is another problem, even if we trust the retailers, ( how do we know the retailers themself are not conned to be getting fake ones as originals ) as you yourself commented so.... how do retailers know they are not getting fakes as well...

Is there an assuarance, certificate of guarantee that its an QRIGINAL ??? or maybe any serial Numbers??
so if one really insist in getting expensive Original's will really be assured they invested in an original...

You got a very strong point of view there bro, thats why i am asking how do we know fake or original, until now there is no straight forward answer. Moreover i was surprise my friend bought one n we really cant tell its fake or original becos there is nothing like serial no or some special marking to check on it. Only surprise is the price but that doesnt mean its fake also.

As you know, fake products are getting better and better, and it's not easy to tell the fake apart from the genuine. Also not many people will have a genuine Monster Cable to compare to.

Anyway, can I ask how you can be sure your cables are 100% genuine? If you are buying from a supplier in the Far East, can you be sure they are selling to you the original?

Totally agree, how do we differentiate fake or real Monster HDMI Cable?
Not sure if this is true Monster Cable are produce/ made in China but with certification of the quality matching Monster Cable requirements. Can someone answer this?

And is it true there is a M2000HD HDMI Cable in the market?

Well, I come from wire harness industry..

To be frank, even some renown electronic comsumer product brand (cant disclose the name here) is buying cheap HDMI cable from PRC and ask us to change the packaging and sell as their brand.

So, go figure...

From what I understand, there are high grade counterfeit from China produce in masses mainly Monster M1000HD & M2000HD HDMI cables.

You can google it. I think they are supplying to those ebayers in the US.

Just to clarify my standing and credibility as a Monster cable online seller, I am getting the stocks from an authorised Monster reseller in the US. They are getting the stock directly from Monster Cable in California.

If you really still not convinced on the authenticity of the cables by the online sellers, then you can buy it directly from Monster cable website or Harvey Norman or SenQ. But the only drawback is that you will have to pay a hefty price for the same cable.

You have the options. Choose the one which you feel most comfortable.

I thought there are only 2 major manufacturers of stock hdmi cable in the world, Copartner and I forget the other. I believe the other companies buy the stock cable from them and terminate it themselves or OEM to others.

I once emailed to Monster asking them how do I differentiate a fake Monster Cable and even they the Monster people can't give me straight answer. All they said is to buy from authorized seller/dealer to avoid fake cables
