Default Are Focals sold by Euro Ebay-ers legit?

I have spotted some Focal speakers being sold by a couple sellers based out of EU countries for great prices. They have 99.8+% feedback rating and thousands of transactions.

If we are talking about Malaysia, I would stay away. But the fact that it is based in Europe and have very little neg feedback looks positive.

I bought what appeared to be counterfeit watch off ebay once. i email watch manufacturer and they stated that watch is fake. then i emailed ebay evidence and they told me to destroy it and refunded my money, paypal did but thats the same. counterfeit shipping around is felony I wrote to the seller that he can come in and pick it up if he wants. he said nay and I smashed that watch.

Yeah there was a guy in Italy and in Germany. The German one has 100% positive feedback and super cheap prices. Too cheap when I think about it.

Why not contact seller to see if he will provide a serial number? If he does, you can call Focal and ask if it is legit. If he doesn't, you pretty much can be assured it is not.

I am willing to bet the seller wouldn't even respond to the request, which would make me think again about pulling the trigger on purchasing.

Those a e legit.

Europe Ebay selling practices are different than the US.

Mosconi/Gladen has an Ebay store so that tells you something since both brands are under the Orca umbrella.
