Just a reminder to never buy Japanese caps from China. If the deal is too good to be true, then it probably is.
The sleeving is impeccable, the quality and the font are perfect. It's only when you take a close look at the bunge that you see the 'concentric' rings. I don't even think Nichicon has such a cap in that particular series, but Panasonic does have one that used to be used in CPU VRMs. With the Panasonic caps, notice that some of them don't have the concentric rings, but the seller was not smart enough to differentiate between his 'good' fakes and the rest, and he gives away the fact by including the older ones with the obvious sign.
