Mastergrade also has a bad rep on other forums... But that's another story that I don't want to get into. Either way, you want quality? Go with Do-Luck.

Ya, keep it on topic of do-luck. $795 is a really good deal for the authentic.

$795 for the authentic version? I'm interested in this, however have some questions that I would like to be answered.

With this FRP Do Luck version coming from Japan, does this come with authentic label on the product and on the box packaging like the original Do Luck product?

Also, since having an agreement with Do Luck Japan and in limited edition, would there be some kind of special serial count on the product?

Do Luck FTW!

E-mail them, that's how I found out. Someone also made mention of it on the other X site.

We haven't received any of the trunks yet so there is no way to know for sure, but I don't doubt that Do-Luck will put the same labels on their FRP trunks as their carbon trunks. Here are pictures of the labels on the carbon trunks. Either way the trunks will be absolutely authentic from Do-Luck in Japan and we have no interest in selling replicas that would compromise our relationship with Do-Luck.

Thanks for the reply.

Since Bulletproof have made a co partnership w/ Do Luck Japan, how could the company not know of this from the beginning? A product this Large should have a seal on it. Especially when it came from JAPAN! FRP or Not, this is important.

Let me guess, Bulletproof seal?

I ask this because, as a paying customer, I would like to know that my hard earned money is well spent. Not just because it looks nice and fits well, a Japanese LABEL/SEAL is a must especially when it's being sold off as JAPAN made. A product can't be just sent off from Japan without any proof of authenticity.

If it were to be picked up directly from the warehouse, would the box shipped off from Japan still be available?

How about instruction manual and paperwork pre-sealed in a plastic bag guaranteeing Japanese made authenticity?

That picture you provided with label and authentic seal is the the REAL Do Luck JAPAN.

We did know about this product from the beginning because Do-Luck is only making the product at our request. We negotiated directly with Ito of Do-Luck Japan for the lowest price possible and we're the reason why this trunk even exists. We have a long history of working directly with Do-Luck Japan and we have never sold any knockoffs in the 10 years we've been in business.

This trunk is not an exception. It is a genuine Do-Luck trunk from Japan. If you have any question at all about the authenticity of this product or our relationship with Do-Luck please give us a call at 213.745.6954. I'm not sure where the uncertainty about this is coming from, but I'd like to personally reassure everyone that we do not sell knockoffs and never will.
