Since it sounds like they are made in China,the factory may run a quantity of the assembly line for themselves. Audioquest might not even no they do it.Or they could be pure counterfeit. Being that its a most likely an easy to copy product,who knows. I sure wouldn't want to get cheated on pure counterfeits.[http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue18/audioquestinterview.htm]
Cheap Interconnects from Hong Kong
I've noticed that interconnects on eBay seem to be listed quite a bit more cheaply than on other sites. I'm specifically looking at the Audioquest King Cobra.
Anyway, since most interconnects on eBay are shipped from Hong Kong, are there problems with these not always being genuine? I know HK sellers can be very competitive with generic stuff like USB cables, but I can't imagine how they'd be able to acquire AQ cables more cheaply than other sellers.
Anyone have experience buying interconnects on eBay?
