Cue components email back and they confirmed they do have Morri tips in the newest security packaging. I guess I'll order some and we will see.
Since no one answered I'll ask again...
Are these the G2's that everyone is referring to as counterfeit?

This is the truth.
Big fan of Triangle here.
Received my Moori tips from Cue Components. They are authentic.
Confirmation made using QR code.
All 3 I bought showed 1 scan... mine.

Here's a guy selling them for $50 each. Can you tell if they're authentic?
Original Moori tips - Medium
I have 6 original Moori tips for sale. $OLD each, shipping to CONUS only included with Paypal F&F payment. If you want to pay via G&S you will need to pay for shipping and fees. Note: I edited the post to say included shipping is to CONUS only.

First and third pictures look genuine. Third picture, the third one looks like a Morri II. The best of all Moori tips.
Just like any tip, you get really good ones, and some bad ones. I'm glad you got a good one. The first moori i brought two years ago was awesome, when that one worn down. I brought another, that was not so good. There are ones just as good you can buy for $20.and more consistent, So much choice around now. but Its hard to beat ultra skin and thoroughbred im my opinion!!

For what its worth, PoolDawg reviews of the Moori cue tip were all 3 and above except for two of the 71 reviews:
Since this thread is showing a little life I'll point out that there is a lot of difference in leather, even from the same hide. When talking multiple different hides, there can be worlds of differences. Just for starters, it is common practice to salvage the hides from Winter kill animals and animals from other times of year found dead. Some of these hides can be very marginal, to be blunt, shouldn't have been salvaged! Then comes the tanning process. Many different ways to tan a hide using many different products. Using the brain to tan hides was once popular. Tanneries don't smell like rose gardens, strong chemicals and organic matter!
An animal's hide is all different thicknesses and textures too. Somebody in a one man operation or small shop tends to be far more picky about hide selection than a bulk operation. Trying to get more tips out of a hide gets you into marginal areas.
Moori was a one man shop in Japan. I believe the man died, maybe just sold out. Regardless, the moori tip of today is a far less quality controlled product than when it was from a one man shop.
