Maybe you should try not to twist my words. If I send them proof that the serial number is not correct, then they have their evidence and there is no doubt anymore. Creating an algorithm that detects when a new WD Blue 1TB SSD is offered at 900 baht, would also be sufficient evidence that a counterfeit is offered

So entering the serial number on the manufacturer website, and been told that that serial doesn't belong to that product isn't sufficient evidence? It would be easy for them to weed out the fakes by just creating an algorithm that detects when an item is offered at 50% of the market price.

Getting a refund is not a problem, thought that was obvious from the OP, but the software tests don't show deficiencies, neither does it show that it isn't the brand that you ordered. The topic is, if they are so skilled in making perfect copies, could it actually maybe stolen or fallen from the truck original stuff?

I only wanted to call you out for what you are, and I'm glad that I'm on your ignore list, so I don't have too often read your replies.

The item I'm talking about in this case is Kingston RAM. When you run CPU-Z it will show manufacturer and Chip producer as Kingston. So how would i know which chips are actually used? And more important, how would i know they are decent quality. Running a MEM test is no guarantee that they will work properly for an extended period.

no Yes they do, I have provided evidence of counterfeit items multiple times to them, and nothing happens. They just play a game of we take feedback serious, then a few days later you get an email with the request to report it again, and so on. Months later the same sellers are still selling the same counterfeit items. By the way, more than 50% of SSD's and RAM listed on those platforms is counterfeit, and then I know only about those that have the evidence in the customer reviews.

I just received PC RAM modules from the usual suspects online, and they are counterfeit. In fact, I knew before even ordering them that they were counterfeit, as I went through the reviews and found plenty of evidence. The only reason I ordered them is that I wanted to see with my own eyes how good copies they are, and then report the seller for counterfeit when I send them back. And yes they are real good copies these days, and most people don't know it, which is evidenced by the hundreds of 5 star reviews the listings get. The package is identical to original, and eyeballing them and comparing to the real thing, doesn't show any difference. Inserting them in the PC and running CPU-Z or other software, shows it is the real thing again. Correct specs, manufacturer correct, chip manufacturer correct. RAM tests give also positive results. I have looked at Youtubes about how to find the counterfeits, and what is shown there is a different quality of what I received. The only way I could detect it, other that there is no Synnex or other warranty provider sticker, is by scanning the QR code on the module. This results is a completely different RAM module from the same manufacturer. The QR code on the packaging label is completely different by the way, and takes you to Sh**ee and Laz**a. So that brings me to the question. Since they are these days capable of making near perfect counterfeits, who says that the chips are not of near same quality? So would you use them, knowing they are counterfeit, but at half the price

Yep that's how it usually works in Thailand. Protect the criminal loan shark, and treat the victims as criminals

Wow Lou, you just took it to a new level. Do you work for the department of "corrections" by any chance?

I guess OP has never heard about Google? https://www.bigc.co.th/search?q=campbell https://www.bigc.co.th/blog/en/collection-of-classic-soups-from-the-campbell-brand/?s=campbell

as a prominent xenophobe lawyer’s query I corrected it for you These are the same guy's wo are promoting tourism to the Thai national parks

Isn't it a bit ridiculous to suggest they ask to be allowed selling alcohol during hours they are permitted already?

I thought political parties were disbanded if there was suspicion they were run by people banned from politics?

You can find a negative review about every device, even the best one on the market, if you search long enough. Congratulations, it took you long to find a thread to put your usual, I know it all better, stamp on it. BTW the review is written by someone who just became and adult and purchased his very first Android box. Sure he knows everything

Maybe you should check before opening your mouth and spouting your usual drivel

Because you didn't pay yet doesn't mean it isn't owed. Land taxes are a law for several years already, but as with everything else in Thailand, the laws are not enforced. I think there is also a clause that if you are registered as living in the property, you're exempt.

And that is also what the new law aims at, allowing it for the medical benefits only. Not for people getting stoned and claim it heals the pain in my shoulder

It was posted in another thread a few days ago that SCB and Krungsri have a similar option at similar rates

No they don't, they don't allow foreigners to open accounts that give anything better than the basic rate. Been there - got the t-shirt. I'm on retirement extension and have a yellow tabien baan and pink id card

You can get a 4TB crucial SSD for less than 9000 Baht, add an enclosure for a few hundred baht, and you basically have a 4TB USB drive

You say you retired, why you can't get retirement visa?

Please reserve your space in the visa forum for your next topic, titled, I was denied entry because IO says I'm not a tourist

I have been told the same

This is what you said, so obviously in your mind people wear jewellery to impress others. That you don't wear any is either because you're too cheap or too skint I mean, who do I seek to impress, and why?

It's like the withholding tax refunds. I asked if they could put there fund in my KTB account. Can not sir because you are foreigner. Next I receive a cheque, which I only can collect by deposit it in my KTB account
