they are generics but not fakes, as longs as they are working prefectly, the difference is the brand and the quality, somehow some generic uses cheaper raw materials, but in a y way if it works thats what matters
Fake is fake, working or not working, brand and quality-wise.

If it carries a different brand, hindi na fake yun bec. it already carries its own name, ergo, separate entity na siya.

*all: I was referring to the mems they sell.

Eto na lang example: Kingston USB Data Traveller 1Gb retails for about $40-50 sa internet (free shipping if within the U.S.); CD-R King sells it for Php1200-1300 the last time I checked. Medyo malaki yung difference. Add mo pa yung import tax + 12% VAT + CDR-King's mark-up less yung selling price nila eh magkano na lang yan? Too low IMHO, and there is no way na maging orig yun.

As for the discs, I don't have any idea.
