  • [Blockierte Grafik: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/4280936469_b9846a5c7f_o.jpg]


    I don't know if there are any people here which have done business with AJ Racing in Canada. But they have sold lot's of fake J's Racing parts original :thumbdown:


    This is the letter from J's Racing Japan to AJ Racing Canada:


    Dear Ben Leung
    First of all, it is almost 9 years since we, J’s Racing, started a business
    relationship with your company in 2002. We fully acknowledge that your sales
    & marketing have made the current J’s Racing popular status in the North America
    and we deeply thank you for that.


    Unfortunately we have to present you a rather unpleasant notice today. We recently
    learned that in spite of your status of an official distributor of J’s Racing, you
    have been copying J’s Racing products in a factory abroad and selling the products
    as the genuine J’s Racing merchandise.


    In order to verify the information and to get the clear evidence we actually purchased
    a product from you for an inspection. Regrettably we found that you not only copied the
    product but also copied our packing tape and box to make the product look exactly like a
    genuine J’s Racing product.


    Now that we have a proof and we consider your conduct as a criminal offense, we no longer
    can maintain the current business relationship with you. We have already consulted an
    attorney in the British Columbia and we are ready to take strong legal actions if necessary.


    We strongly feel that an official distributor should be the one policing the copied or
    knockoff products. It is outrageous that an official distributor itself sells a copied
    product as a genuine one. This is an inexcusable conduct even from the social point of
    view and we will not forgive this kind of crime.


    Regarding this matter, we are considering the number of actions. We will give you one
    chance of providing us a sincere response and coming up with an offer for a monetary


    Our actions include but are not limited to
    1) Termination of the distributor status
    2) A legal action to demand accounting information on the quantity of the copied products
    produced and to demand a definite proof for destroying the copied products.
    3) Bringing a criminal charges against A&J Racing
    4) Disclosure of the issue on our website using your company’s name
    5) Disclosure of the issue on the several forums in the world using your company’s name


    6) Notification of the issue to all the manufacturers J’s Racing has business relationship with
    7) Notification of the issue to all the companies J’s Racing has traded with
    Notification of the issue to all the magazine publishing companies A&J Racing has relationship with
    9) Notification of the issue to your father, Anthony


    Those actions will inflict serious damages to your company.
    In the business world, the trust is the most important. It is very regrettable you have lost our trust.
    We will be waiting for your sincere response and a specific compensation offer.
    The deadline is April 22, 2009.


    Sincerely


    J’S RACING Junichi Umemoto
    J’S RACING Hisaaki Murakami

  • First of all, thank you for posting this. Unbelievable that an official distributor sells made-in-china repica products and claiming the parts were genuine J's Racing parts. Ben must have been in desperate finacial troubles I guess.


    I've dealt with Ben b4, bought a brand new T1R 70R Sparrow Dual exhaust from him as T1R is his company. Unfortunately the fittment was off scale.


    The fact that Ben's a crook now makes me feel ashame to own a T1R product.

    Da ich Ben sowie auch Umemoto von J's racing kennengelernt habe kann ich sagen, dass beide einen sehr netten Eindruck machen aber in der Sache hier
    wissen nur die beiden was wirklich gelaufen ist.
    Und da einer versucht das auf den anderen abzuschieben sollte man sich in der Sache kein Urteil erlauben.
    Eine Meinung dazu kann man sicherlich haben doch was im Eneffekt schiefgelaufen ist wird wohl nie einer von uns erfahren.
