Fake Audioquest cables?


Are there such a thing? I think I may have bought one "used" from an Amazon seller.

Do you have photos of the cable in question?

If you find the cable is not as represented my guess is Amazon would help you out.
The Audioquest cables are produced in China anyway. so grey market is the most likely, but plenty of cables are counterfeited.
The whole issue is buyer be wary.
I just do not buy cables from private sellers anymore at all.
If cables had just a reasonable markup over production costs, it would not be such a bad problem... LOL
The cable looks identical to the pictures that Audioquest has. It was the price of the cable (about 1/3 retail) that had me worried. I had not thought about the "authenticity" when I bought it.
Then you probably have a grey market cable. They are actually the same as 'real' AudioQuest cables, except they are not imported by the company. they find thier way here via grey market means.
The only problems are no warranty, and they may be seconds.
