was at a habitat store yesterday and they had a knockoff of an original, unlike the ones in the gallery here the only difference was it had a spinner motor on the inside, other than that it looked just like a real original, anyone ever see those before? i almost wanted to get it just to show

There are plenty out there. I saw one at my habitat which looked like is was repainted, as the whole fan was flat white.

Yup, plenty of copies out there. I could think of a number of things what you saw could have been, but more details would be needed to know for sure.

I saw that same fan.. Let me guess, it's that AB one at the Habitat off Broward Blvd? It's been there for a while, I wanted to get it, but they want way too much for it..

I know CEC made Original copies, they even used genuine Original pictures from Hunter in the brochure. Litex, Century Steps, and other companies made copies of the Original.

They wanted $40 for it.. At one time it was sitting around disassembled, I noticed the last time I was there they had attached the blades to it and hung it on the rack.. It's definitely a later Hunter Original copy.. Probably late 1980s.. The white Fascos are still there from October of 2010..

Maybe.. But they seem to be strict on their prices.. You would think they would want to sell their fans, in with the new and out with the old.. Prices may vary on whom you ask if they are not labeled.. I lucked out on my Brass/Brown Tat there for $10 even though it was labeled with two stickers, one saying $20 and the other dated a few days after saying $10..
