5D MKii grips - is it too good to be true/?

[travellingcello]

Been researching the BG-E6 grip for the 5D MKII and came across this - it appears to be the genuine article, but for £41 - you could buy 4 of these for the price of one Canon grip... is sounds too good to be true - the question is do i take a punt?

Is it a well designed fake from China?

Order it and if its not the real thing then put in a claim against it being a fake. Obviously message the seller first to verify though. There should be a distinctive line between genuine and 3rd party products, and if this is not a canon original then it definitely is a misleading description.

Good spot, I hadn't seen that - will avoid.

If its too good to be true....etc. Also note that you'd be liable for import tax, VAT, so that price of £41 isn't accurate, but IF it turned out to be a genuine Canon grip (which I very much doubt), it would still be an absolute bargain.
