alert! These types of air compressors must not be bought, beware of being fooled!
These types of air compressors must not be bought, they are easy to be deceived!
一. Counterfeit
Everyone knows that fake and shoddy products cannot be bought. In fact, "counterfeit and shoddy" has three meanings:
The first fake is that even the manufacturer is imaginary
In order to make the name of the fabricated manufacturer sound formal and powerful. It is often called a group company, a joint stock company, or the name of a well-known company that does not produce air compressors at all.
What’s even more funny is that some people like to put Hong Kong, the United States, and the United Kingdom in the parentheses of the name to advertise their import status. In fact, even if it is an imported product, the manufacturer has a foreign name. This kind of Chinese company name is impossible to register with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. This kind of fake is the most obvious.
The second one is counterfeit
imitates the famous brand, from the shape to the color to the trademark, copy it to the end. The worst thing is that even the trademark is copied. This is the "counterfeiting" in the concept of most of us.
The risk of such counterfeiting is actually very high, because it not only faces inspections by market supervision departments, but also will be protected by infringing brands. It is a relatively low-level routine in the early days, and there are not many choices.
Now there are more "counterfeit" methods of wiping the ball on the market. That is, the appearance is very similar, but not exactly the same. The trademark looks similar at first glance. At the same time, these companies are also legally registered, and even trademarks are also legally registered.
Like this type of product, report it to industry and commerce for investigation. It also has complete procedures and has little effect. This type of product is actually the most cunning. Generally, only the original brand owners have some effect in protecting their rights at the level of intellectual property rights.
Many users are deceived and most of them are in this way.
The third one is bad quality
refers to the rough product, low performance, and safety problems. It makes sense to pay for what you pay for, but pay attention to those with particularly low prices.
So, remember to be cheap, never buy fake and inferior ones, just "get into the pit" when you buy them.
二. Refurbished machine
Refurbished machine does not mean the complete refurbishment of the old machine with paint. It may only be the motor, main engine, gas tank and other relatively valuable components, using refurbished parts.
Think about it, the frame number and engine number of a car need to be filed. Even so, there are still soaking cars and accident cars for sale as new cars. What's more, the air compressor is a product that does not require government filings.
Generally, those who sell refurbished machines are unlikely to be manufacturers. Most of them are middlemen, such as distributors/service providers. As an intermediary, it will inevitably have stocks, returned machines, and some second mobile phones with better quality will also be purchased for refurbishment.
One thing to note is: refurbished machines are not necessarily of poor quality. However, because there are refurbished parts, they are definitely not the original manufacturer's original product, and the quality can no longer be guaranteed by the original manufacturer. This is the biggest hidden danger of refurbished machines.
3. OEM
In the past few years, our air compressor industry has a production license system. Air compressor manufacturers must meet certain production conditions to obtain a "production license" and to legally produce air compressor products.
However, this system was cancelled in 2018. Then a bunch of OEM air compressors appeared.
What kind of companies are these OEMs? Basically, they are middlemen and traders who find air compressor manufacturers to get the goods, and then post their own trademarks.
Now, in the industry, there are many professional air compressor manufacturers that specialize in this type of OEM business. The configuration, parameters, and basics of the machine are the same, but the color can be selected at will by the OEM user, and the trademark, manual, and information can all be done in one stop.
This kind of OEM machine can't talk about any good performance at all, because the design of this public version considers more price factors.
But these OEMs are the most advanced products in the mouths of traders. Beautifying and exaggerating publicity are their basic operations, and many users are often deceived without knowing it.
This kind of OEM, the biggest problem is quality assurance. The reason is that these OEM traders are usually not strong in their business. A company with only tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of registered companies has a little quality dispute, and if there is trouble, they just shut down.
To sum up: counterfeit, refurbished, and OEM machines, these three types of air compressors must not be bought, absolutely not!
