Protect your Vestax equipment !
Dear customers,
Vestax devices are no longer in production - every replacement part you choose today directly affects performance, reliability, and long-term value.
Selecting original components helps protect your investment and maintain the authenticity of your equipment.
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, FCC declaration). Selecting original components helps protect your investment and maintain the authenticity of your Vestax equipment.
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 thesenon-original 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 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 non-original 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.

False information is circulating on social media.
False information is spreading on social media that Vestax original parts do not exist or are not available for purchase. It is not true that original Vestax spare parts are no longer available for purchase. These are just lies spread by some people under the pretext of selling their cheap, low-quality copies. We highly recommend using only Vestax original spare parts, which we offer in our store vestax.parts and we have more than 1.000 items on stock. By following our advice, you will ultimately save yourself money and the disappointment of your Vestax stopping working.
Use only recommended original Vestax parts. Use of non-original may damage your Vestax equipment.
