How to Distinguish an Original E-Cigarette from a Fake?Posted by UK Vapor Waves on May 31st, 2021 In 2020, the number of copies in the vaping market, in comparison with the original devices, increased sharply in the vaping market. Moreover, for repair, they bring electronic cigarettes not only from little-known sellers, but also from well-known companies that know for sure that they are selling copies. The reason for offering counterfeit e-cigarettes lies in a much lower purchase price: a copy costs about half the price, and is sold at a "normal" cost, and sometimes even higher, so that the buyer does not have any suspicions of "originality". Vape Shop experts admit that large sellers may periodically purchase copies through no fault of their own, since they do not work directly with the manufacturer, but through intermediary sites. However, this does not prevent the return of a batch of copies to the supplier. But instead, the company often decides to sell products at the original price. Regardless of whether the seller of counterfeits is aware of the originality of the product being sold, intellectual property law implies serious liability for this, protecting the copyright of manufacturers. What is the cost of buying a copy of an e-cigarette in UK? In service centres of Vape Shop, specialists see a variety of fakes every day - they are produced in more than one factory, their microcircuits are different.
