Beware Of Fake Bride Ergo Seats!

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

Here's a good example of a fake BRIDE SEAT.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/BRIDE-ERGO-II-SEAT-...1QQcmdZViewItem

Now look at that and compare the ERGO on the BRIDE site, they are very similar but you'll eventually pick it up.

I was going to purchase a pair of a forum member, but after close inspection of the photos I knew they were fake!

Pay attention to the headrest, and top support.. !

Looks the same to me???

[Owgasm]

ebay one the hole at headrest is slanted?

It extrudes upwards a bit more?

no idea.

[GMan]

the ebay one: bride logo seems a higher and also centre bit is in a darker colour

[R31 drift pig]

The writing is curved and too thin.

The harness holes are on a slant.

The tag is wrong and clearly a fake.

Has the same side adjusters though.

which is why i dont buy from ebay

[Owgasm]

well. ebay is great. just gota be smart. ask questions etc... nothing wrong with it.

But. there is actually nothing wrong with the ebay listing. he doesn't say its "GENUINE/REAL". If he said that then he'd be in trouble.

EDIT: Wait, it could actually be 100% real BUT... he may sell seats that weren't good enough to sell to the public directly. like it has some mistakes. Thats why its "cheaper"?

Here's how you tell a real Bride from a fake one:

Fake http://cgi.ebay.com.au/BRIDE-ERGO-II-SEAT-...1QQcmdZViewItem

[Owgasm]

ok. lets see what the seller says. message sent.

[Ten Four]

Wow.. I wouldn't have realised.... Considering the seller has 100% Feedback... I guess it must say authentic/genuine.. Thanks for the information

[Ten Four]

same post time keep us posted on the reply...

[Owgasm]

Received an e-mail from the seller:

"Yes, but i do not have original box or certificate because it is a display item, thus the low buy it now price.

If this concerns you , i would strongly sugguest you not to bid on this item. I would rather a positive feedback from a happy customer

Cheers"

Now if anyone buys it, he can be in serious problems.

There's also a few members trying to sell them on this forum and nissansilvia as well.. i will not mention names.

[Jpower]

Wow these fakes are popping up more often nowadays.

Would rather get JJR racing buckets than fake Bride anyday!

[R31Nismoid]

Thats ebay for you.

[Gts-t]

And our site it seems

[JoELMaN]

Guys, I myself have been a victim of this. They use pics of genuine Bride items in the add. but that isnt what you receive.

buying of ebay is always a risk. sometimes it better to add the extra bit and have a peace of mind. if anything breaks you can always go back and return it to the store

[full house]

have you bought it? Its good thing you noticed it . . . always make sure or double check the items you are buying over the net.

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

Even some forum sponsors are selling the fake thing... I'm not going to mention who.....
