Yamaha pianica black, real or fake?

[simchaleh]

Hi everyone. Im looking for a 32 key melodica pianica. I decided on the pianica or honer vintqge 32.
On ebay i found ths pianica in black, shipping from japan. The reqson i want this one is that they ship internationally to me, for a good price, and the melodica is 45$, a little suspicious… Also i didnt know they make thnpianicas of 32 key model in black.
Heres a link http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-YAMAHA-P3001-32K-Pianica-Melodica-keyboard-harmonica-BLACK-PSL101084-Japan-/301034006680?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4617066898
Any ideas?
What raisw my suspicions even more is thqt in ebay there are other pianicas with soft case instqd of the standard hard plastic case. Could they be fakes?
Thnks

I posted on this earlier under General Melodica Discussion: https://melodicaworld.com/forums/topic/kc-p3001-32k-kyoritsu-corporation-from-japan/

It is not a Yamaha or a Yamaha P-32D clone. It is more like a cheap Hohner or Suzuki 32 key melodica and an okay melodica for $35 or less. Shipped to you from Japan it’s much more expensive than that, more expensive than the Yamaha P-32D, which is a far superior instrument.
