How to save money ? when choosing parts !

Dear customers,

Recently, many offers for guaranteed genuine original Vestax parts have appeared on the internet. In most cases, however, this is a scam, because after ordering, you receive a part that is not original but an imitation - a copy.In short, fake.How can you tell before buying that it is not original ? It may look nice in photos. But the reality is different. Here are some tips to know in advance.

Original Vestax parts are packed in original boxes with several protective elements (3D security hologram, date of serial production or stocking in a red round label. Each original Vestax part has assembly instructions included in the box. Another indicator that clearly tells you "I am not the original but just a copy or a non-OEM part" is suspiciously low price. Original spare parts are not cheap - and this applies not only to Vestax but generally to every brand of electronics or, for example, in the automotive industry. Surely everyone knows how huge the difference is between the original shock absorbers for your car and non-original shock absorbers, which will not last as long as the original ones. And so it is with spare parts for Vestax equipment. And if you have any doubts about the origin, ask the seller to send you a certificate for the piece. Every spare part placed on the market must have a certificate - a manufacturer's certificate of quality and origin and compliance with international regulations (CE declaration). So these are simple tips on how to tell if you're being sold a copy or fake before you buy.

Thank you to our loyal customers!

We were notified of the whole matter by our loyal customers, to whom we would like to thank them. We also asked them to carry out a test purchase of these fake parts and send them to us for assessment. At the beginning of the article, we promise to give you advice on how to save money. And that's the key to success: original Vestax parts last many times longer than fake, non-original copies. Consider how long the original crossfader in your Vestax mixer lasted, for example. But if you buy a non-original part, you can be 100% sure that it won't last as long. Its lifespan will be at least half as long, but usually even less. So you will be forced to buy the same part again in a short time. And such sellers count on you being forced to keep buying new parts from them. Most of the time they won't give you any guarantee on them. We will not name those who offer and sell such fake parts here. With our tips, you will surely be able to easily identify them yourself.

What is OEM ? Its stands for "Original Equipment Manufacturer", which refers to a company that makes components or products used in another company's final product. OEM means ORIGINAL PARTS. non - OEM are mostly imitations, copies without a guarantee of quality and parameters given by the manufacturer, in general, in many cases they can be described as fake products! So ask yourself: do I really want to degrade my Vestax by buying a non-original part for it ? For a better overview, here is a table.
