Did Someone Sell You A FAKE Xenium? Post Your

I can honestly say that I bought a chip from Xmods.ca about a month ago and have nothing but great things to say about them. The customer service was TOP NOTCH, I emailed them and got a reply right away. They were very friendly and did everything they could to insure the transaction was fast. I have bought a ton of things over the web in the last few years their service was by far the fastest and friendliest.

Great work!

WWW.MODPIIRI.COM (in Finland) is selling these fakes. I just got their reply on my mail to them about my discovery (got the chip today), that they were unaware about the fact that their chips were fakes (yeah, right...) and they will try to clear this out (sure they will). They gave me an option for refund or to wait if they get an original at hand.

Here is a picture from my fakechip.

Yup - she's a fake all right. I hope you get your cash back man. I wouldnt want to do business with them again if they screwed me already once.

GodCoolin is right - you can trust xmods.ca and pretty much anyone on their official re-sellers list I would imagine.

Didn't realize this Post was already goin! Started one of my own to warn people about  www.Modchips.CA . I just got my first in today and "HELL YES! IT'S A FAKE!" So disapointed. I'm A PC modder and wanted to try something new, didn't think I'd get ripped off. If they advertise selling the genuine article they better sell the genuine article. The website boasts that they test every chip they ship, how could they not know they were fakes? The chip came in quickly, sure but ive never even seen one in real life before and only did a weeks worth of research to learn how to do this, I spotted the fake as soon as I opened the package and flipped the chip over , only to see the tell tale " www.ozxodus.com" with no capitol "X", then theres the blue switch, glue gumming the pin header where the board meets it, and one of the chips looks like it had something splashed on it and dried (water?, chemicals?) no way am I gonna take a chance to ruin my Xbox, the price for a new one is goin down sure but come on.

There is posts poping up on ozxodus forums of people ordering offical xenium chips and recieving clones from modchip.ca!! If i where you guys i would only order from the offical resellers list. YOU have been WARNED!  ohmy.gif

modchip.ca was on the official reseller list.

Yeah modchip.ca is into some shady stuff. The weird thing is that they were shipping originals at the start because I bought mine from them in early January and it is a real xenium. I guess they decided to screw the customer to save a little money. Well hopefully they have the decency to at least comment on this.

I thought they were because I clicked their name as an official reseller and couldnt find out where I clicked their name out. That was how I found their site. Anyhow, I got an email from them sayinng they got a new supplier and we can start buying chips after the 29th again. If they take my money im still filing fraud against them...

i wont be suprised if they sell fixed clones (fixed known differences) and still screw their customers

They did it once and they can do it again

I am sure there will always be noticable differenced on the PCB since an exact imitation is almost impossible.

Lets see what game they are playing

Up to now i am now sure if any1 got their money back
Reports?

My suggestion, dont buy from modchip.ca

Well they are not being very customer friendly so I went ahead and reported internet fraud through my bank account. I can always cancell in a week if the decide to give me my money back but I would like to get this longggggggg process started now.
