Garrett has been awesome to me also. I hope the bank gives you your money back. Thank you for sharing that that is good information to have. Have a wonderful week.
Well done Brother getting that sort out, enjoyed watching your video Glad it had a happy ending Plus good message to watch out for Counterfeit Products 👍❤️
Good to hear Garrett took care of you Roberto. I almost bought a carrot off of ebay when my pro pointer went belly up, but my local metal detector dealer called me in time when he got a new shipment in.
This is a great video to warn others of the fakes. So glad you got a new one. Garrett is amazing for stepping up on this issue. I hope Garrett finds this company and sues the carp out of them. Again thanks much for the great video :)
Wow that’s crazy! It’s hard to trust people nowadays. I’m glad Garrett took care of you and got you a new pin pointer. Thanks for sharing Roberto. Stay safe and keep happy
Maestro, le cuento que también fui estafado con un Pinpointer que supuestamente era Garret. Lo compré por Amazon, imagine todo el costo de envío desde USA para Chile; con el pago de aduana, impuestos, etc. Al final, en una ocasión, lo metí al agua buscando un objetivo y desde ahí comenzó a fallar. De verdad hay que tener mucho cuidado con lo que uno compra. Mi like 43 y un abrazo gigante desde Chile.
Amazon y eBay están llenos de vendedores desalmados y estafadores. Y la cosa es que son muy sofisticados y difíciles de reconocer. Estoy trabajando con mi banco para recuperar mi dinero. A ver qué pasa.
Great information Roberto! Garrett is great to work with. I had a pinpointer malfunction and not only did they fix it but it came back to me with a better case bc the tip had been so worn down that it would have a hole in it soon! Anyways any questions I’ve had they always get back to quickly. They also sent me a new pair of wired headphones at no charge when my initial pair failed. Thanks for sharing!
Thats customer service that will make a lifetime customer. Garrett is a stand up company. Sorry you got took by a scammer and thanks for the information. It might help someone else from making the same mistake. Good luck, happy hunting and take care.
Wow Roberto that was so kind of Garrett to help you with that. There is so many fakes out there. I hate copy companies . Even my own product that I designed and manufactured was copied . Best is to buy from officially authorised distributors or direct from Garrett.
WishMeLuck MetalDetecting I started my own company and made a children’s digital action camera. Then a china factory stole the design and did an OEM design which they try to sell to many people. I lost a lot of money and time. In the end I decided to close my company.
@@ScubaGuy same thing happens here. Many companies are willing to review your ideas to later reject them. But soon you see the same products under their names. That's intellectual property stealing. And if you want to fight, be ready to lose a lot of money in lawyers with no guarantee that you will win. Too bad that happened to you. I was a board game inventor and all of my prototypes were rejected by companies. All they want is to look what you invented to later make some changes and publish them as theirs.
When I first started out, I ordered a garrett carrot online and as it turned out, it was a fake! It beeped but wasn’t at all reliable and it did not detect nearly as deep as the real carrot. It even came in a counterfeit garrett box. I ended up contacting Garrett as well, they confirmed it was a fake and I ended up ordering a real one from an authorized dealer.
I've heard of this scam before. E-Bay has always been on the buyers side in my experiences with them. Good Luck finding the guy who sold you the fake one.
Man what a headache you are going through..Sorry this happened to you ..I got screwed from a Ps4 controller and it has been months now and I keep getting the run around..good Luck on it all..
That’s crazy! Glad things worked out even though you had to take a bit of a hit. Carrots are the best pointers, in my opinion and are worth every penny! TC&HH!
That’s why I quit using eBay. There’s no screening process for counterfeits there. eBay should reimburse you. I always use a credit card so that I can refute a charge more easily. At least Garrett is a standup company!
Awsome dude. I'm not going to lie I usually buy the fake gp pinpointers. They are cheap and usually work fine. I can't afford the real thing. Lol. Congratulations on your new one.
Halfway through an Ebay purchase before I realised the sellers business is in China, have asked seller to cancel the order but even though the status only shows as paid, Ebay,s automation says I can't cancel as already dispatched. I have alerted Ebay of a possible counterfeit citing Garrett's website which says any of their products sent from China are fake. This seller says item is being shipped from Ireland, on their negative feedback one buyer says their product was sent from China. Hope I get my money back.
colega que bueno que te resolvieron el problema pronto y ya obtuviste el bueno compañero pasando a dejar tu like amigo y aqui andamos pendiente de tus videos colega saludos desde mexico
That was awesome of Garrett to do that for you!!! I am sure you will get your money back from ebay they have always in my experiences with them been on the side of the purchaser!

Gracias. Yo he comprado toda clase de pointers para probar lo nuevo que sale, pero con esta copia me agarraron bien! Espero recuperar. Si no pues que se va a hacer. Aprendí mi lección.

Thanks for the visit
Good to hear Garrett took care of you Roberto. I almost bought a carrot off of ebay when my pro pointer went belly up, but my local metal detector dealer called me in time when he got a new shipment in.
I know it happens for one reason of the other. This fake one was a free shipping and that made me buy it thinking it was the real deal.
Garrett is great about their products thanks for sharing 👍❤
Yes they are!
This is a great video to warn others of the fakes. So glad you got a new one. Garrett is amazing for stepping up on this issue. I hope Garrett finds this company and sues the carp out of them. Again thanks much for the great video :)
It is amazing how many counterfeits are out there. Hard to catch them nowadays!
Wow that’s crazy! It’s hard to trust people nowadays. I’m glad Garrett took care of you and got you a new pin pointer. Thanks for sharing Roberto. Stay safe and keep happy
It is crazy indeed! I am happy to have a real carrot and will use in my next hunt!
Garrett is a awesome company...Glad you got your PP 😁👍
I am very happy to finally have the real deal!

Hey very happy for you that you got the real pin pointer. So nice of Garrett to help you out. Thank you for sharing
Best wishes
Finally the real deal after almost a year dealing with a fake one!
Great information Roberto! Garrett is great to work with.

Yes, my hope is to make others aware of the scams out there in every area man! It's outrageous.
Thanks for sharing, glad Garrett came to the rescue.
That was my purpose with this video. To make everyone aware of the scammers out there.
Wow Roberto that was so kind of Garrett to help you with that. There is so many fakes out there. I hate copy companies . Even my own product that I designed and manufactured was copied . Best is to buy from officially authorised distributors or direct from Garrett.
What was it that you designed? Even with a patent, companies steal your ideas by making minor changes, making it a "new invention. "

I didn't know that. Thank you for sharing the experience.
Any time! JJ we have to be careful. Too many crooks out there!
Garrett is a good company to deal with. Great customer service
It was a pleasure to deal with them. Very courteous and understanding. Good thing they are removing those junker pinpointers out of circulation.
Hi sir glad you found a solution to the issue who knows how much the fake was made for maybe 2 dollars
Yeah, this scammer made a lot of money off of unaware people like me! So sad!
So sorry that you had to deal with a crook but grateful that Garrett did you right. Outstanding company for sure.
Almost a year with a junk pointer. It was working well, but soon it revealed the cheap technology it was made with.
Now thats a stand up company right there!
Yes it is!
I never buy any of my equipment from anywhere but the real dealers!! I'm sorry that this happened to you my friend.
Yeah, I learned my lesson. Our usual suppliers are really good. This one was free shipping and I git blinded by it.

Lots of fakes out there. Good thing you contacted Garrett.
Garrett is an awesome company, and they really came through for you, Roberto. I do hope you can get your money back!😊💖
I hope so too
Awesome video! Glad that they worked with you. Some people are so crooked!
Garrett is reputable company. Actually most American metal detecting suppliers are great and respond well to keep our business.
I've heard of this scam before.
E-Bay has always been on the buyers side in my experiences with them.
Good Luck finding the guy who sold you the fake one.
They probably kicked that seller off Ebay!
sad that ther are so many scammers trying to rip off good people😑 thanks for sharing👍
Yes they are and they are becoming more and more difficult to spot.
Man what a headache you are going through..Sorry this happened to you ..I got screwed from a Ps4 controller and it has been months now and I keep getting the run around..good Luck on it all..
I have been scammed a few times. I think that at some point we will all be. They are becoming so sophisticated that it is very difficult to tell.
That’s crazy! Glad things worked out even though you had to take a bit of a hit. Carrots are the best pointers, in my opinion and are worth every penny! TC&HH!
I totally agree! There is no other pointer better than the Garretts!
I love garreet iam one of the top surpports hope all is well buddy
All is well. Come tomorrow to my next premiere. ua-cam.com/video/IpTh9pu0m6Q/v-deo.html
That’s why I quit using eBay. There’s no screening process for counterfeits there.
eBay should reimburse you. I always use a credit card so that I can refute a charge more easily.
At least Garrett is a standup company!
I agree Anthony. Ebay is not what it used to be. Too many scammers, but they don't do anything.
The reps at Garrett know how to take care of their customers. Hope you can get your money back Roberto.
That's my hope! Already filed a dispute!
Awsome dude. I'm not going to lie I usually buy the fake gp pinpointers. They are cheap and usually work fine. I can't afford the real thing. Lol. Congratulations on your new one.
I have GP and some other cheap pinpointers. But this one was sold as the real deal. The price range got me.
@@WishMeLuckMetalDetecting I'm glad garrett hooked you up
Sorry Roberto..I only trust the big sellers and no e bay. Glad Garrett came through for ya. Good on them.
Tc and Happy Hunting my friend
Ebay used to be a trustable source. Not anymore.
Halfway through an Ebay purchase before I realised the sellers business is in China, have asked seller to cancel the order but even though the status only shows as paid, Ebay,s automation says I can't cancel as already dispatched. I have alerted Ebay of a possible counterfeit citing Garrett's website which says any of their products sent from China are fake.
