Not a bad copy 
.. but where/how are they mounted? (Can't see the locks )
Probably bolted straight on

Top box is on the pish and doesn't even seem to be fastened on.
I'd have one if it was cheap enough and just bolt it on with a metal plate.

Here's the guy who makes them:
And the designer sitting on an early prototype:
There'll be a reason why they're cheap.

It looks like they are made in Japan to me
Exactly!
You'd be amazed (or maybe not?) how much of a new m/cycle is made in China.
That goes for BMW's, Harleys (they have 2 factories there apparently) etc. etc.
Aren't Twat suits made there too..?
There's a reason why BMW stuff is often so expensive...
It's called the BMW badge

Aaaah , should've guessed really. The Japanese versions would have had bluetooth and been small enough to fit in your shirt pocket
What is a 'speical bracket' anyway? that these panniers come with!
The boxes look OK, but my faith in the company is somewhat reduced by the quality of the web site advert - text and pictures! Very funny.
Lets hope they pay more attention to putting the boxes together.

What's the problem
The 12GSA panniers are made by Touratech anyway and if the Chineses can copy them and make them at a better price, then BMW will buy them
As said, look at all the BMW clothing.................it's all made in Eastern Europe or Far East
Lots of parts for your 1200GS/GSA are already made in China and in 5 years the Boxer engines will be made in China
Chinese factories already supply the Rotax copy (under licence) for the 2009 G650XCountry and the G450X enduro bike engine is made in Taiwan by Kymco
Chinese BMW's......................bring it on

Just received this reply from the factory to my query:
I make that about £800 in proper money fro panniers, top box, all mounting racks and delivery. Its not clear whether VAT and duty had been included, I suspect not in which case the total would be nearer £1,100.
Not so much of a bargain now, is it.
Hi Sir,
this is our new product.
the price on ebay USD 1350 include shipping fee, that means free shipping to UK.
the price also include three bracket, you do not need to purchase OEM bracket, save money.
we are design the special rack for 1200GS and 1200GS ADV now, same aluminum case will design for fit 1150/1150ADV/ 1100 later!!
we test in 2007 R1200GS ADV, it is no problem, i will call dealer for confirm 2008 is the same design with 2007.
we will tale more photos in step by step install the bracket and 3 case in r1200gs / r1200gs adv next week.
will share photo with you later.
thank you.
Sam
