Hai all.

Want to share my experience buying fake Bose OE Headphone at Low Yat Plaza.
The shop say the headphone is original.
Cheaper price as the headphone is 'underwater' (tax free)

At first i really hesitated to buy.
Then i decide to buy it after the RM250 cheap price offered by the shop.
After several time listening to the music using the headphone,i am not satisfied with the sound quality.

At first i donno there is authorize Bose dealer in KL.
I got several friend having this Bose OE headphone, but all of them bought it from overseas.
I 'googled' and found authorize Bose dealer Malaysia.
I visit Atlas hifi in Sunway. I bring the headphone,compare it with the original.
The sound quality is so FAR different. But the built quality is almost 95% same.
After some checking and comparing by the Atlas hifi person, they confirmed my headphone is FAKE.

I call the low yat shop.
They said 'sy punya supplier cakap ini barang original ma. diorang cakap original, so sy pn cakap original laaa. apa bole sy buat? Barang tak boleh refund, u dtg kedai tuka barang lain laa..' bla bla bla bla bla (i think i had cursed them, but i dont remember as i was really2 mad)

I was really really disappointed! With no hesitation, i bought the genuine Bose OE from the Atlas hifi! (RM680)
Yes, the price is a bit expensive. But i really satisfied with the sound quality come with 1 year warranty, free service and one-to-one replacement if there is any manufacturer defect.

Now i am very happy. Thanks to the very 'WOW' sound quality engineered by Bose. Everytime when i travel, this headphone is always with me.
I am thinking to upgrade to Noise Cancelling Bose headphone in the future but the price is more more expensive sad.gif

To all my music lovers out there, beware of FAKE product, with the technology now, people can almost imitate everything!
Sometime it is better to spend more for better quality and satisfaction.

I hope this post is useful for all of u out there. Sorry with my bad english.

BTW i am not here to blame all the shop in Low Yat Plaza. Just aware of some that sell fake product.

Thank you!

Attached is my Bose OE Headphone picture. On the left is FAKE, on the right is genuine.

of course the sound quality is different, the price is more than 300% different!

It is like buying a Myvi and complain it is a fake Camry. whistling.gif

If there is an underwater camry in the first place. drool.gif
even if there is, it is call tax evading and contraband.
you could go to jail for it.

headphones duty free,
only has 10% sales tax for resellers.

you are comparing orange to durians. vmad.gif
seriously, arguing about this is fun,
but talking to a kid is not. rolleyes.gif
*
normal people like me donno about the tax,% sales tax,duty bla bla bla.
only resellers like u knows.
BTW tax evading for car maybe impossible.
it is 1500kg item vs 0.200kg item.
orange and durians, myvi and camry.wow.very nice.
i never heard car seller convince their costumer that the myvi is really2 a camry.
your comparison is out of topic.

I bought the fake Beats for my nephew.
I told him it is fake, he doesnt mind.

I pay fake price for a fake beat,
that, my learned fren, is not scam.

scam is when you pay full price for a fake product, geddit?
*
The problems is, they say its genuine, with a tax free price.
The issues is, the seller is not telling the truth!!?
Why dont he just tell it was fake with fake price.
Maybe u dont understand the issues here.

So in the end you got conned RM930, for a fake crappy headphones and a genuine but crappy headphones. For that money you could've gotten a pair of M50s that's light years ahead of anything Bose puts out in the next 10 years.
*
Thanks for your advise.
After considering the size and performance, i prefer Bose OE than others.
The carrying case is small and easy to kept.
As i travel a lot, i think the OE is really suit me.
Should i look like person in a recording studio in a flight cabin?
That's why i choose OE..
No doubt Audio Technica is also one of the best product out there smile.gif

You can actually 'sue' them via consumer court. Go to The Mall (PWTC there) 16th floor and fill up a form for a minimal fee. This would bring them to the consumer court where U can say they cheated you since they insist it's original.

Thank you for you advise.

How many days after the purchased made? Is there any deadline to made the report?

I think most of the audiophiles have the same opinion with his lol, as u can see almost none of us use bose headphones as they are seriously overpriced and the sound quality is totally not worth that price you pay for. U should try other brands first before u jump into the conclusion that the bose is the best  for u  wink.gif
*
I dont really want to argue with 'which brand is the best' things. There will be no winner!
Most people in this world will said the thing they choose is the very best thing (in their opinion)
And i never said bose is the best for me, i said it SUIT me.

Since u jump onto it;
Different people, difference taste, difference opinion, different interest,different spending power, and of coz different on how they enjoy on how the music come in their ears.
How if i said his 'toy' the macbook white is overpriced with the spec they offered and overrated? again it is just my opinion. not him.
so if 10 out of 50 person use apple and the rest is using dell, will u said that dell is the best?
There will be no winner in this brand war. it just wasting time and i dont want to wrote more.

btw this is already out of the Topic issues.

Just fill in the form and submit. Then fax a copy to the shop and they will surely
call you to "settle" bcos selling fake goods and deceiving customer is a criminal
offence. If you dont do this, it will eat at you and probably shorten your life
a bit due to stress. Its not the money loss.  biggrin.gif
