China Source Chinavasion: Scam China Suppliers Now Offering 'IPads'

April 27, 2010 - PRLog -- Shenzhen, Guangdong - China Supplier Chinavasion put out a warning today that China scam companies were using the buzz surrounding the Apple iPad to dupe unsuspecting eBay traders.

No-one would deny that the buzz surrounding the Apple iPad is huge right now.

On the first day of its launch the tablet computer sold between 600,000 and 700,000 units on the first day.

Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg is reported to have used it to keep up on state affairs when he was stuck in New York because of the air crisis caused by the eruption of the volcano in Iceland.

However, according to wholesale electronics source Chinavasion scam  manufacturers in China are now trying to benefit from the buzz by misrepresenting themselves as genuine iPad suppliers (http://blog.chinavasion.com/index.php/4703/china-source-chinavasion-scam-china-suppliers-offering-ipads-should-be-avoided).

According to Rose Li, PR manager for the China wholesale manufacuturer Chinavasion scam manufacturers had listed fake iPads on B2B sites like Alibaba for half of the recommended retail price of the actual iPad in a bid to dupe eBay resellers and online traders.

"At the last count there were as many as 14737 iPad listings on Alibaba alone," according to Chinavasion's Rose Li.

"That's a lot of listings for a country where the actual iPad hasn't even been released yet."

While some China 'iPad' suppliers slipped up by offering 'iPads' with Intel processors, 10 inch screens, cameras or telephone functionality Chinavasion's Rose Li said that some smarter operators were very clever with their duplicity.

"Some listings look very much like the actual iPad listing on Apple with the only difference being that they are half the price as the real thing," said Chinavasion's Rose Li. "However, what the customer would get in the box is really anybody's guess."

According to Rose Li actions like this tarnished China's image as a whole and saddened genuine wholesale electronics suppliers like Chinavasion. "Scam companies like this hurt the whole industry."

"The faster they are removed from the industry the faster China's burgeoning electronics industry can move forward."
