If you suspect it to be another metal, use a magnet; aluminum should not be magnetic whatsoever. Since it's hollow, a light knock should make it immediately obvious whether it's metal or plastic.
It is not metal for sure. They kept showing me two types with two prices. Polycarbonate and aluminium. Thats what they keep saying. The prices for the Aluminium has been around 3000 baht for sometime now. Give or take a 100. Thats from all the shops. In Hanoi it is also the same price. Just under 100 USD. What they say the Polycarbonate is cheaper than the Aluminium.
