[QUOTE="WhiteLight, post: 178486, member: 9556"] [b]Re: FAKE FAKE FAKE MB-D11[/b] Well just as suspected, it was a fake! And what a fake at that! Thie battery grip came in a perfectly made box, with a manual. the battery tray came in a pouch similar to the original one. This was the first red light for me - some of the stitches on the inside of the pouch were off.. I've never seen a nikon pouch made that way. Next, the grip itself is so well constructed & finely made, if i wasn't as paranoid as i was, i would probably never know. The color & texture of the material is slightly different as compared to the material on the body of the D7000. And it seems to be somewhat plasticky. All other tell tale signs that have been inidcated in other sites like fstoppers etc, like the indicator marks, the inside of the tray etc is all made up to be more like the original now. The locking wheel however spins like a top if you whirl it around.. And the kicker, NO warranty card. Called the seller & he said he's giving a dealer warranty for 6 months, no Nikon warranty. Thank you very much! [/QUOTE]
