Audioquest King Cobra - Genuine or Fake

Please, I buy used Audioquest Audioquest King Cobra cables. They don't come with a box and I was sceptic.

Photos are on http://s1152.photobucket.com/user/chris983/library/Audioquest%20King%20cobra?sort=3&page=1

Are these cables genuine or fake?

Thank you for your help

Thank you for reminding me the last and ultimate option.

I've sent an email to Audioquest.

to Lowrider,

I am yet to try them as my system isn't working at the moment so there is no way to tell.

I'm not sure why someone would take the time and effort to counterfeit a $150 pair of ICs.
It's the same reason anyone counterfeits anything. $$.
$150 selling price; $5 cost of goods sold. R&D cost $0. Marketing cost $0. Gross profit $145/unit. Sell 1000 of them and you are talking real $.

To Tsugury,

The color problem does not seem to be an issue regarding the genuinety of the cables. I have been asking around and nobody has said anything about the color.
