Re: Made in China "Buffet:

As the genuine B12s aren't made by Buffet, they never had the 'Made in France' bit under the logo which is only seen on French instruments - so that's a giveaway for a start.

There were loads of these on eBay a while back and also Yamahas which were identical instruments but with the Buffet or Yamaha logo stencilled on. Both were supplied with an extra barrel (B12s and YCL-250s only have the one) and neither resembled the instrument they were meant to be.

I alerted eBay about both the fake Buffets and Yamahas at the time, but haven't since checked if there are any still being sold on there.
