We disprove a well-known conjecture of D. Vallete (1978), which states that every $d$-dimensional self-affine convex body is a direct product of a polytope with a convex body of lower dimension. It is shown that there are counterexamples for dimension $d=4$. Additional assumptions under which the conjecture is true are discussed.
