Is this a genuine MEGA 2560 R3 made by Arduino in Italy?

The Arduino MEGA 2560 R3 that I received from MP3Car was a genuine board made by Arduino in Italy.

is this a genuine arduino, made in italy, packed in a genuine, sealed arduino box?

I can only speak to the item that we (Robot Mesh) sell here - you should contact other merchants for their answer. Yes, we are authorized Arduino distributors and this is an genuine item from Italy, sealed in the box from the manufacturer.

The image says it is made in Italy and is it 2-pack is that true? Seems rather cheap for a genuine Mega 2-pack. Huaha by Amazon

When I purchased the Mega it was a genuine Arduino but not a 2 pack

I have yet to purchase any Raspberry Pi or Arduino project boards I want one that will be the only one I need to buy but there are so many. Which one?

well for me, I used arduino mega 2560 r3, arduino uno r3 & fez panda ii, but if I had chose only one of those to work with, I say the mega 2560 r3 it had much more extra pins & flash memory 256 KB (the uno 32KB & the panda ii 148KB).PS. arduino due has all the benefits of the mega plus more flush memory & clock speed if you don't want to buy this instant the arduino tre looks very interesting, but I don't know the release date they only say it's coming soonhttp://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardTre
