New BTY Viscaria - genuine or not?

strangeloop · Aug 1, 2012

Hi guys, I am going to get a Viscaria tomorrow.. Hopefully it's genuine..

Is there any way to do the serial number check online? What should I watch out for in general? After reading about Giangt's experience in the other post, I am a li'l worried.

Not necessary. Luckily I did some homework.. I checked the blades today personally..

It was exactly like this: http://jpegbay.com/gallery/001641964-1.html#1

Found it on this thread:

You did your homework right! i would have recommended you that link.

Mine wasn't with my Viscaria FL btw.
Things to notice if it's fake: alignment of the text in both sides, spelling of performance (genuine spelled "Perfomance") and last Arylate is spelled wrong.

I am actually looking to buy BTY ZJK.. But heard of this store selling Viscaria real cheap.. was really tempted.. Turns out to be fakes! Time to go looking for BTY ZJK again...

Not what I have experienced... I wrote BTF Germany and they where kind to check up the serial nr. both in their own system but also at Japan.

Nice! Maybe that should be expected given the pricing..
