jaygolf Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 This whole fake business is a nightmare. I've only purchased one item through eBay, not more because you just never know. I've reached the point where I'm a bit paranoid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swisstrader Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Last one of these Spoon (I believe it was Spoon) and I sent a note to the seller indicating fake. At first he argued with me and that said he had no idea and would take them down. We all need to first send him a note and then if it doesn't come down, report to eBay. I would hate for some guy to think he's getting a deal with a first time JDM purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 I just reported it as well, definitely fake. I've also reported it to Epon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shambles Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 This whole fake business is a nightmare. I've only purchased one item through eBay, not more because you just never know. I've reached the point where I'm a bit paranoid. Fake shafts are more difficult to identify. You have nothing to work with except labels and color.

idrive Posted October 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Not up on the Miura's Don't the JDM hosels say "genuine" on them? Do the USDM Muira"s Those Muira's in the ad look funny to me..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88elephant Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 The real ones do say GENUINE on the hosel but the pics on the E*** listing cuts off just before you can see them. If these are fakes, i wonder how they feel to the real ones! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoreBeerBetterGolf Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I mean it would be pretty dumb to not put a simple "Genuine" stamping on them...s**t they make a $400 purse look so close you can't tell, why not $1500 golf clubs? This guy only live a few hours away I kinda wanna check out his store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exhaloprez Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Before I fall off the cliff, are these real? Really appreciate your input. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Epon-AF-701-Forged-5-PW-R-Flex-/140876663945?pt=Golf_Clubs&hash=item20cce74c89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoreBeerBetterGolf Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Ian those are real. Looked them over myself and considered them for my brother-in-law who is just getting back into golf but the shafts won't work for him.

wmclarenf1 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Someone posted some in another thread I think on some ali site that sold fake romaros, epons and even Ryomas. Question for Ryoma guys, do the Ryoma heads (V-Spec, D1 and Premia) have any serials laser etched on the hosel or somewhere and if so, what is the format e.g.. 2A345678C? Also, the screw.. are all silver in color even for the VSpec? I do recall seeing some pics here where the screw is a darker grey/black color. Just want to know if there are visual cues to help identify geniune/fakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
