In my opinion the seller just sells what he finds, and doesn't care much if it's a fake or not.

In past he checked some chips and marked as propably fake. Now it seems he don't have time to check, straightening pins anymore. Just quick sale is important Sad

I didn't know he warned about possible fakes in the auction description or title. If he did then it's certainly a step back.

I can't recall this seller selling CPUs marked as fake, but perhaps is it just me.

I do recall this recent listing though by someone else:
http://www.cpu-world.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7102

The major complain I have with LZF is that his prices went through the roof in recents months, not the quality of the chips he sells, or the way he packs them (though he seems to take more time to send chips now).

Prices are set by supply and demand.. dont buy and they go down. .. then again.. dont buy and someone else will Wink



LZF7000 is 100% honest. I will buy from him again. He sells many chips I think its hard to always know what is fake or not.
