Re-post: Illegal Magsafe 2 already?!

Recently, we were contacted by a Chinese company/person who said they sold Magsafe 2 cables at really cheap price and it was genuine Apple, therefore it's legal. We wrote back and said great! Can you send me your license terms with Apple and ship the adapters with the Apple logo exposed. We never heard back. This just proves that there are a lot of illegal activities going on out there. Just for those who don't know, when you buy Apple products from China, they are NOT sanctioned by Apple. In fact, they are illegal, What they do is painstakingly cover up the apple logo so that customs will not stop the shipment coming into the USA. The average buyer will not know that, and they just think it's part of the packaging.  There are companies here that are buying those cables and also modifying them and selling them as 'Recycled', or 'refurbished'.

Bottom line: if it's cheaper than 79.00 (cable or car adapter), then they are knock-offs(these cables have notable imperfections or cheap material), or somehow lifted out the back door of factories.

We pride ourselves in being an ethical company, and wish to be there for the long haul for our customers, unlike some have have been sued by Apple.
