Default How To Spot A Clone Box????

Hey all, im new to this and have ordered a box from Ebay. How do i spot a clone box?

Mine arrives tomorrow and im worried as iv read a lot about cloned boxes on ebay.

I think iv chosen a reputable seller as hes had nearly 2000 sales with only 3 bad feedback over a year ago so hopefully ill be ok.

Cheers

i have done 4 boxes, mine and 3 others, i got mine off a site saying its genuine (iwantabox) and the other 3 wer bought from a car boot sale/market,, the three from the market had very scruffy ribbon cables inside and red blotches on the screws and my box had very neat ribbon cables and no red dots so i guessed the market ones wer clones. no need to open the box up as you can see through the vents on the top. also the null modem cable had to be forced into one of the boxes??
