Fake Book cover VS Original Book cover Tab S2

[robox88]

I saw selling on ebay copies of the book cover equal to the original ; It lacks only embossed Samsung logo .

http://www.ebay.it/itm/221940188127...28934099&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&rmvSB=true

because they cost about 10 € , compared with € 40 on amazon but original , I wanted to know if it was appropriate including these fake copies , if the only difference was the lack of the Samsung brand.

someone did try / buy / views these copies of the original book cover ?

I have this one

On alieexpress. My wife has the original and I have this one. I cannot see the difference between the two. Also the number of orders and amount of feedback provides confidence.

Also Aliexpress has a pretty good buyers protection.

edit: the screen protector included is junk, don't use it.

He has written samsung ? does the packaging as the original ?

I finally I got to 40 € the original one from amazon . On aliexpress unfortunately it takes 30 days for shipping .

I recently bought the original 8" case from ebay UK, for £15.95 (21 euros) (23.45 USD)

The listing is currently showing as ended. But, maybe contact the seller to check when extra stock will be available.
Or search ebay (whichever country) for EF-BT715PBEGWW
There are still available at around half the price of Samsung's own site.

I got an original samsung cover on eBay for $17.99. I'm assuming it's real because the quality is amazing. It was brand new but not in original packaging.

I bought a fake one on ebay, and it was very easy to scratch. It looked identical to the OEM one with the Samsung logo and "Made in Vietnam" text, but I only needed to drag my fingernail across it to leave a permanent mark. I bought a real one from Best Buy and it is much more durable. I can drag a fingernail across it without leaving any marks. You can definitely tell the difference.

If it's doesn't come with the original package, it's not original, many of these cases from china do offer real good quality, but doesn't mean it's original.

I have the original one in white, i have it about 10 months now, still 98% new, just the corner slightly discolored, won't be using it any more in the next few day, I will be trading my S2 soon, it's showing sign of the weird functionality and sometimes go haywired, although cosmetic looks is like 100%, and I hate going through samsung repair center, they are a pain.:fingers-crossed:

Even the fake one will likely come from the same factory and made of the same materials. Ghost shift production is a real thing.

I agree with this comment, it's how china and many countries make extra money, out of the contract with the large companies.
