#3 Post at 21-7-2011 13:16  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #1 sirtiger's post In HK practically every authorized Apple reseller has renovated their stores to resemble the Apple store. The first time I saw one of these stores, I wondered if they had to decorate that way because Apple required all their resellers to look that way or that they deliberately wanted to recreate the Apple Store feel. If one didn't look at the signboard upon entering, one would have felt they just have entered a small Apple store. I read a similar article in the wsj and thought it was no big deal. I am sure the "Apple Store Look-Feel" can be found all over Asia.

#10 Post at 3-8-2011 10:01  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L About time the some body in government start cracking down on fakes stores. It's scary to get a fake product that resembles some genuine product only to find it's a knock off that doesn't work.  i bought some fake ipod first hand and thought they looked real on the outside but wasn't allowed to turn it on or play with it. Until i took this back to a hotel did i know i got ripped off. I was so pissed!! I won't buy anything expensive in China related to electronics. I am even more so scary about the fake food in China. What has this world come too?
