Do you buy fake branded products?

Yes. When it comes to electronics goods and equipments, I dont hesitate prefering non-genuine products than the branded ones, because now-a-days there is hardly any difference in their operation and functionality, and they seem to catch up with the original ones pretty well. So there is no harm in buying non-genuine products. Unless you want to show off your gadgets, of-course.

No, I don't think the quality is the same as with the real thing, and I also know some counterfeited products are manufactured in very dodgy ways, so I really try to stay away from them. I know this seems weird to a lot of people, though.

Yes! Specially when it is very hard to identify the original. But as from my own experience, every branded products has their some special secrets for buyers. Try to find those special signs for your everyday usual products.

There are certain grades , classes so to speak. Buy the class a fakes as they are the ones closest to the original and has the same quality.

There is always going to be a risk, if you buy nongenuine products, there is a chance that it may not conform to health and safety regulations, the quality is different and not so good so it is really not worth it. For your peace of mind health and otherwise it is always best to buy the real thing.
