Like many premium products, Pioneer DJ gear is being imitated and sold at non-authorized dealers or popular auction or other websites, usually at largely reduced prices.
Fake products do not meet Pioneer's high standards of build, performance and sound quality. You may pay less, but you will not get the expected performance. Neither will you benefit from Pioneer's 12-month warranty or further support should the product malfunction.
If you would like to report a suspected counterfeit Pioneer DJ product, please contact your nearest Pioneer office. Pioneer needs and appreciates your help to prevent the distribution of counterfeit products.
