Either buy brand-new from ross-tech, or buy second hand from another member. That way, you'll know it's genuine. Most of the leads on ebay are fake/clones. No guarantees with ebay goods but at least if it's a genuine cable, you have se headway with ross-tech.

What is wrong with purchasing the proper genuine Ross Tech lead, and reward Uwe for all his hard work. :rolleyes:  Afterall, Ross Tech isn't some massive company, rolling in big fat profits, paying fat-cat executive bonuses and the likes!  Uwe and his company really are one of the 'good guys', and deserve our support :afro: - not some shady company from Greece or wherever, who pirate the software, and clone the hardware! :angry:
