Looks OK from outside but we should see how it looks from inside. Ask photos from the seller and post here, or compare to those photos that were sent earlier and were taken from a good mux.

Hello
I bought one last month not from ebay but from china.
Believe me it looks just like the one in the foto. It has the stickers of actia and MB.
I can say that it works just fine as a multiplexer but the software that i received with it was bad.
Thanks to DK i managed to install a new software and now works perfect.

Just for info, i work with Chinese Multiplex already quite long and i can say is that OK.I successfully repaired two such devices and still operate for now.I have two installations with the DAS software and two times I've cloned the disk,with repair windows,works very well on any computer.

So what you say is as long as it can run Xentry the multiplexer is fine?

The original multiplexer are ACTIA "Made in France".

But ACTIA produced the Multiplexer in China (complete components). In France ACTIA built it only together.

ON the Market you can get a very good clone or really cheap crap. The good clone are 1:1 copy = original, but its costly !

I have searched the forums and read most of the posts about Cloned multiplexers.
I can not justify paying for an original star machine.
But would like to have a diagnostic kit that would be of some use on my old w203 (to replace my old carsoft multiplexer)
Example...MB C3 STAR with HDD

Does anyone on here supply or can anyone on here recommend a supplier?
(Apologies for my lack of terminology ...I am a newbie)

DON'T EVER BUY FROM "AOTOTECH" IN CHINA. I have received couple of good quality (6pbc) C3 but now quality has dropped for cheap (4 pbc) C3.

Hi,

I bought a C3 four months ago in www.carobdii.com (http://www.carobdii.com) (contact person: Cheryl) and works 100%. I have not tried with 24v.

Mux+cables+HDD+PCMCIA+aluminium box+freight = $480US. Four days after making payment it was at home (Spain).

They do not understand about software updates. You need a notebook with PCMCIA port.

Show some photos from the circuit boards and I'm sure we can say it does not work for 24 V vehicles.

yes no many of companies change the prodectes to cheap not to good qulty. Should ask your self what you need cheap start from 350 usd,360,380,420, and last saler has 500 usd 12 volts 4PCB layout in same time he has 650 usd for trucks 24 volts howover must check price for shipping for example MB star C3 to UK cost 52 usd but never tell you the cheap saler start from 60usd about paypal fee it is 1.04 and should 4 usd for 100 usd some saler charge 6 AND should check the saler or resaler I know resaler need 1000 usd it is not easy from where we buy
DO NOT intrest Chiness SALER w.w.w what where when:damnmate:

Do you mean that a Chinese seller would deliver the same products if ordered via internet and paid in advance? One or the other would be fool if you had received poor tools when purchasing those at the shop itself.

Have you tested how the warranty works? You send the tool on your own cost and hope to get it back later on? This is not the same as bringing the product to their shop and not leaving before it has been fixed (or swapped with a new one).
