Chill guys, it's just a misunderstanding..

If that imitation sells for RM100+, those sellers can GTFO... Well LYP shops are known to scam ppl for their accessories anyways, not the first time.. Last time during the 1st iPad, there's 1 exact same 'leather' casing where I saw in eBay for RM50, they were selling for RM200...

Smartcover, either get original or don't get it... Even the original one scratched my gf's backside of the iPad for a bit after a while because of the clip on/off magnet... I really wonder what damage the fake one would bring @.@

I don't see iPad as luxury item, it's not even the most expensive tablet on the market.

Yes some accessories in lyp are very expensive even for china one.

I scout for Sony nex cover last time many shops selling for rm150-200? Then I bought in eBay for rm70 including registered postage from hong kong.

It is lar. Luxury item : An item that is not necessary for living, but is deemed as highly-desired within a culture or society.  The ability to purchase or finance a luxury item is directly proportionate to ones' income or assets.  In other words, as people move into higher income brackets they are more able and more likely to purchase more expensive luxury goods. 

Luxury items are also known as "positional goods" because they signal that the owner has achieved a certain position or status within society to be able to afford them. 

Not everyone can afford these tablets. U can get a pretty good specced pc at the same price that does a lot more than the ipad.

agreed... All those designer's clothing, they're not called luxurious goods for nothing, even if I can afford one or two, they're still called luxury item no matter what @.@.. Millions of people have them also, still that doesn't change the fact it's designer's clothing...
