Ayu (are you) Knocked Off? Bootleg hater thread

[Andali]

Have you ever bought an Ayu CD or DVD and realized its a bootleg?

I love getting all legit stuff but my Auntie bought me A Ballads and 2 concerts but bought then off ebay (the seller claimed them sealed and real and she believed it) and I mentioned to her some funny markings but she assured me they're real. Its unfortunate cos I dont have the heart to tell her ballads and countdown 08-09 are fakes. They're sealed but knock offs

I hate how those pirates steal from artists. Its not fair to the artist or us who want to support them but when we get fooled into buying so called legit stuff it funds their sneaky basement enterprises. I tried telling one once and he was like "no its chinese version" and one once lied about a disney dvd I bought and then when I emailed them about it suddenly no one responds.

I told her to use YesAsia but she likes ebay and I cant figure out how to tell her not to buy me anymore Ayu stuff cos she'll get scammed again. I wish I knew the seller so I can report them but gosh I hate pirates so much.

Have you ever been caught out? What did you do? Down with Ayu piracy! Evil scammers
