What a shame :(
Pasted from DSMLink.com
"Because people are copying our chips, selling them, and then telling the buyers to contact us to get a replacement cable/adapter, we've had to suspend sales of the adapter entirely. This makes it very awkward for someone that has their car broken into or simply loses their cable. We can't distinguish one situation from the other on our end. We tried for awhile, but then people got wise to what we were asking for in terms of "proof" and just started faking that.

So we're left with no choice but to simply stop replacing cables. I suspect this is why other shops selling similar products had to do the same thing. You can thank anyone that you find selling copies of our stuff for the hassle."

I think if you actually know Tom or Dave, or are a long time DSMLink forum icon, you could probably get another one. In other words, they'd have to know you well enough to trust that you weren't ripping them off. This also means they'd know you well enough to know that you wouldn't abuse that rapport to get one for someone else they didn't necessarily know.

I'm sure their hardline policy has dramatically reduced the number of copies being made, since as far as I know, no one's duplicated the cables.

If the guy you bought the car from actually was a genuine purchaser of DSMLink, they'll have a record of his purchase in their computer records. If it's pirated, you're out of luck (and should be).
