BMW original cap

[vladd_tappish]

Hi to everyone. I have a friend who just came back from Australia. She brought me a gift which is a BMW cap. According to her, she bought it in a motor show in Australia and it is genuine. My doubt is, why is it made in China. She said that the sales person who sold it told her that it is made in China with BMW authorising em. Does anyone know that if this cap is an original?

This are non essential thing for running of your UDM.

it not surprizing to outsource to cheap labour in China.

Even branded shoes and shirts are MADE IN CHINA.

Thanks guys for you infos. I am now convinced that it is the original cap. How much is the retail price for this cap in Malaysia? Does anyone know?

i am not suprised if it is from China.
A lot of textile-based goods come from China. These are non-precision manufacturing items and so many companies there can do it cheaply with decent quality. Those that didn't make it end up at Factory Outlet Stores and Bundle Stores.

Looking at it, I won't be surprised if the cost of it to be less than USD10.

I sourced for jackets, t-shirts, pants (dockers type) for one delivery company (they know Asia very well) and got good stuff from China, Indonesia (Bandung) and surprisingly, Malaysia.
