How To Tell If Your Beatles Stereo Box Is A Fake

Yes it does!

 

I just don't understand how the pirates manage to mangle these things. I mean, all they have to do is copy the originals - how hard can that be? It's just as easy to get it right as not. Even given OCR issues, you'd think they'd have someone on hand who understands English to check these things. English is the international language for business, even for pirates. But maybe not. Maybe it's done on purpose as a joke!

 

Two from Yellow Submarine:

 

I feel terrible that you got a fake stereo box, but the examples are hilarious!

 

I want one now. It's going to take a few hundred posts to get tired of this.

 

It is the gift that keeps on giving.

 

- and to think people have derided these rernosters, it's the place of monufocnsm that gives cause for doubt though:

 

I'm afraid to ask what Arswork is.

 

So, how do the waveforms look?

 

... and does it say www. thebeotles.com ?

The best band you never heard about.

 

Thanks to Mike The Fish, if I ever form a band, it's name will be Ringo Start and The Beotles.

 

If you really want the set, do what most of us did: pay retail.
If you must buy used, you take your chances.

 

I bet, two dead Pauls is better than one a nice place to start another thread.

 

Then you already have at least one released album. Wow, it's time to call guys from Guinness Book of World Records!

 

I like this one (see post #64)
'www.thebeatles.cam'

 

Jeez, if I had an extra $100, I'd buy one of these just for the comedic value! I feel sorry for people who bought these thinking they were getting a good deal, but the examples on this thread are hilarious.

 

Hilarious stuff here. But how do the CDs sound on these pirated copies? Just wondering if anyone has listened and if there are obvious audio differences. Arnie

 

Good call.

 

Mike, those photos are PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!

 

In fairness, the Ebctrbc & Musical Inturtrlin Lid often monufocnsm there.

 

Yeah. How do they sound?

 

You mean the Beatles' first album wasn't called Please Please Mini-Me?

 

If you hear Clarence Walker's saxophone on the early hits, you've got a fake.
