Just buy one in a legit store.

Honestly, unless you're buying on eBay or at pawn shops, you really shouldn't worry about counterfeit stuff.

How ya doing, buddy?

My response exactly. Your fear is pretty unfounded.

But when you buy from a reputable dealer, you can't get 300 dollar phones for twenty bucks! And that sucks!

Make sure you buy it from a cool place like the ones they advertise on TV in the middle of the day or late at night.

"WEEEE'VE GOT PHONES, YOU WANT PHONES? GUESS WHAT? WEEEE'VE GOT PHOOOONES. PHONES FOR YOU. WE'VE GOT 'EM. CALL YOUR FRIENDS, WE'VE GOT PHONES FOR THEM TOO! CALL YOUR MUM, TELL HER TO COME ON DOWN, BECAUSE SURPRISE, WEEEE'VE GOT PHONES FOR HER. THREE PHONES, FOUR PHONES! NO LIMIT! THEY'RE HERE! LAST CHANCE THOUGH, WE'RE UNDER STRICT ORDERS TO CLOSE BY TOMORROW! WE'RE CRAZY, WE'RE BASICALLY GIVING THESE AWAY! LAST CHAAAANCE, LAAAAASSSSST CHAAAAAANCE, GET DOWN TO THE DISCOUNT NOVELTY WAREHOUSE DOWN BY THE DOCKS NOW!"

LAST CHANCE!

Of course, you gotta be careful. It doesn't end with the phone, the store itself will be counterfeit, the people who sell it to you, the air you breathe in there. You'll arrive back home to find your front door wide open because everyone in town has a copy of your key. All counterfeit!

Like they said man, just get it from a legit store...or you might not want to get the k750i at all. Is a cool phone but the damn joystick started wearing out after 5-6 months of use. Suddenly the camera didn't work either. I even tried to update the software but no go

There's nowhere I can't reach.

That Chinatown "wholesale" store has counterfeit written all over it. If you want a phone, get it at a retail chain. There's pretty much no chance of getting a counterfeit item at Best Buy or Circuit City or someplace like that.

Hahaha, you can get anything in Chinatown. Its just that you just might not get the real thing. Thats okay though. Who wants a real phone anyway?

The stupidity of this thread is making me laugh so hard. Please come to the NYC meet, gymparasite, I'm begging you.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Haha, saw a counterfeit cellphone store in China which looked very legit. They were selling Anycalls except if you looked closely at the phone it said "Amycall".

Reminds me of the joke my buddies and I used to talk about, where a guy was selling watches. Except it wasn't a ROLEX, it was ROLECKS lol.

If you buy from a shady dealer, then you get what you pay for. And yes, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Just don't come here and whine that you got ripped off if you don't buy stuff from a reputable dealer/store (and ebay varies depending on the seller), especially after all the posts people are telling you. If you can't afford the real thing, then the one that guy on the street is selling at a discounted price is either a counterfeit, or stolen (and if it's stolen, sucks for you when the cops trace the item back to you).

How ya doing, buddy?

This is one of the threads that make me wish Megalith wasn't banned.

"What are you even talking about. We all know Chinese always sell 100% legit stuff. Look at all my DVDs and speakers and computer stuff from Best Buy that shaddy dealer in the mini van down the street"

Like everyone else has said, if you're paying shit, you're gonna get shit. This extra 20% or 50% discount or whatever isn't worth it man.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
