sorry but I meant that in lowyat.net u cant be selling imitation product(s).

yups i DO know that no imitation products are to be sold and i've not sold any imitation products

Spikee, lets get a few things straight here.

The priority of the moderator/trade enforcer is to protect the members of the community. If we suspect there to be a problem with your thread is, it will be closed first. It would be your responsibility as a seller to provide a proper explanation as to why your sales are genuine and should be reopened.

So far, you have provided no proper proof that the products you're selling is indeed genuine.

1. you don't have stock, hence you don't have the actual product with you for the potential buyer to make a proper informed decision before buying.

2. providing warranty via a third party doesn't automatically make the product genuine.

------------

At this point, your solution is quite simple. Get at least one of the MSPD's from your supplier and post up the pictures. There are many members from the community who will be able determine whether your product is genuine.

It would also be in your best interest to double confirm the products (since you don't have stock). Otherwise, you might sell imitation products without your knowledge and tarnish your own name.

alright, those are good points, se7en.

i think the whole point of my saying all this is that i think that being a moderator, as hard as it is, it is only professional and responsible to personally inform the seller of thread closure, do you not think so?

2 - true it doesn't. but surely there's a GREATER percentage of authenticity when i'm referring it back to the actual source? i don't consider it third party, btw.

Well, if you're talking about Plaza Low Yat, then you're wrong, there are many fake accessories, memory cards, batteries to computer parts being sold there openly. Of course, I'm not accussing you of anything blindly and I guess you should back your claims with some pictures from your supplier so that you can prove that your memory cards are indeed genuine.

alright thanks for confirming that for me, then.
i will go and get one and be able to prove myself.

Hmm i dont really understand what u mean on the 2nd point...

But anyway, if im a mod i'd actually invisibled your thread instead of closing it....
Reason is that although the items are still not authenticated as genuine, but by closing the thread there's still alot ppl interested with fake cheap stuffs eventhough they knew its fake..
They still can view your thread and PM/call u to buy it...but if the thread is invisibled nobody but mods can see it.

U should be glad for he only closed it

obviously the seller must do research about the product their selling is genuine before selling. Failure to do so only make its own mistake for not clarify product leading to closed thread.

For your information, Original Sony MSPD 4GB retails at RM 399 as checked from www.sony.com.my

And the thread starter is selling at RM 162 each. that's 59% cheaper. at 59% discount, do you think any buyer will believe such price is original?

jimmy...agree v u.
spikee,sorry for that. because at here..we know there was no free lunch on the earth. as a buyer, when see the price low we are happy...got cheap stuff maybe cost price or what...

well...when come to "super" cheap..guess what ? this is pirated ? imitation ?
this is reality la bro.chill.
just my point of view..to share.

p/s : u might think why u cant sell cheaper...u may....as MOD said...proved it. prove u got a cheaper lunch. cheers~

I don't get what you are trying to say here but if you are trying to say that i'm closing your thread for my own benefit, you are simply childish. I've clamped countless of MSPD threads when the seller can't prove whether the MSPD they are selling is fake or genuine.

p/s: Some of the threads i've clamped before, here, also I don't give a .... on how cheap you are selling for your MSPDs. All I'm concerned about is whether it's genuine or not. If i suspect that it's fake, Thread Closed

I've stated very clearly on your thread itself, i close your thread suspecting that the MSPD you are selling is fake.

This is not streamyx maindesk where you can call in and whine around as if the world gonna end. I'll close any threads whichever i see suspicious and of course i'll state my reasons there instead of just invisible your thread and walk off. You are welcomed to contest my decision with me via pm and I'll definitely go through with you if you can provide me sufficient proof to prove that it's genuine.

If it's imitation, Thread Closed as simple as that.

You misscalled me 7 times when i was sleeping, and thank god my phone was in silent mode. You only PM me once.

Below is the PM that i've received from him @ 9.41pm



Maybe you are still new in selling MSPD, warranty provided by an AP company doesn't mean that it's Genuine MSPD. Learn it by hard.

Please, do you expect me to give you a call on your mobile just to tell you,

"hi there, I'm vikingw2k calling from forum.lowyat.net , just to notify you that I'm closing your thread as i suspect that they are fake" ?

Click here, i wonder how many calls i need to make everyday if i were to call them each time i close their thread or warn them.

Are you sure? How about this? You are trying to tell the whole world it's genuine saying it's supported by bla bla listed company or what, but in the end Thread Closed. Or maybe you have interesting find outs to share with us?

I'll answer you, the answer is NO, it doesn't mean that the item is genuine if a supplier sells it in lowyat. Pirated VCDs used to be sold at lowyat too.

to spikeee (and the rest of you)

should your thread ever be closed or go missing, you may contact either the mods or TEs to find out what's going on.

there's no need to start a thread firing away, it only makes yourself look bad.

all it takes is a polite PM to ask. I've come by many who did that, they politely request to know the reason and gladly complied and thread was re-opened and everyone happy.

How different is that from what viking did by posting in that thread itself his reasons for closing it? Either way, you were informed of the reasons why the thread was closed. He has discharged his professional responsibility adequately.

Hmm... from my own experiences... Only Sony will provide Oris/Genuine MSPD... Non sellers in Lowyat is selling a genuine MSDP except some photoshops owning a lot at there if I not wrong.

I believe even at dealer prices, the cheapest won't go below RM100 for a 2GB MSPD

I found this out from my friend working in Sony =.=""
I think this is the concrete proof your selling imitation MSPD

I think viking closed my thread before also. But never mind because I also suspect the company that provided me the price is strange (Lol, I'm noobie that time )

Hope this can clear out.

Direct from SONY Shop
a 2GB MSPD is at RM175.00

(Wonder how come your MSPD can cheap X2??

Yes, I clamped your thread before, but iinm you either PM-ed / MSN-ed me politely to discuss about this issue.

Alright then, i admit my mistake in a couple of things and i acknowledge that i didn't approach mr viking here politely

i will find out if i had been cheated by my supplier or not

i also really enjoy how you brought up something i posted on June 1st. very nice indeed

Glad to hear that, do update us about your MSPD, don't just leave it hanging like your Sony 32Gb Pendrive Thread

how to differentiate imitation and original mspd.

thread closed.

spikeee, when you have received proper clarification as to the authenticity of your MSPD stock, you may either PM a moderator to reopen your thread or create a new one.
