PIRACY / non-authorized using

!!! Be careful !!!

If you see those parts on an international wedshop, you do not buy an original MANOBET Product.

MANOBET has no WEBSITE or WEBSHOP

Yes, we talked about that since a long time.

Friendly approaches did not work, even some message from customers...

I've seen very similar things when I did some searches for rare Marui parts after seeing some appear on eBay. Surprise surprise, the exact same rare parts were being sold on some website, for a very reasonable price...with the exact same pics that were on the eBay ads. :roll:

I think some of these scammers have bots that find rare stuff on eBay or other sites, auto-steal the images and generate bogus "for sale" webpages.
