Which certifying body deemed your product Fair Trade? I don't see a Fair Trade logo. Thanks!

I was wondering the same thing, since the product is advertised as such but the bag itself has no certification seal or label.

The company that made the listing put that on there, and it is incorrect. CowPots will continue to produce this. I had reported it as incorrect and I see it is unchanged. Unfortunately I can change the listing, but I will try changing it again. The products themselves that ship from The Online Greenhouse are fresh! Thank you for your interest!

The one I got looks exactly like the pictures here, and is indistinguishable from the one that came with the camera in terms of performance (i.e. very good indeed). There are no Chinese characters on mine, just English and a bit of French as in the picture. As far as I can tell it is original. The packaging was exactly right too. The problem with marketplace is that with more than one seller selling items that have been tagged as the same thing, sometimes they turn out to be different if the seller is either not trustworthy or more likely has just made a mistake. When I bought mine I believe it was "fulfilled by Amazon" so I bought with confidence that a return would be easy, but it doesn't look like that's possible currently. I also believe it cost more when I bought mine ($47 sounds familiar).

Hi Sargoli, thank you for your question, it's an important one. It's easy for anyone to claim to be organic, especially online. Our supplier is certified organic, however we can't display the certified organic logo until our product labelling goes through the same process. We just launched this product and so are in the process of getting the certification, and expect to have that within the next month. We can send you the certification from our supplier if you would like that assurance, until we have ours on the package. Thank-you again for your question, I hope you'll give our product a try. - Gerry UPDATE Mar 26, 2014: being new to the organic certification process, naive us discovered there is a mountain trail of paperwork and steps to follow. Who knew? This is going to take a few more months still, and much time, unfortunately. Double discouraging given the supplier is already certified, makes one wonder the value in these detailed processes.

I face the same problem. I believe some sellers under this product sell the counterfeit item, and it's not identical to the product image shown on the product page. I already contact customer support. Be aware of this issue.

I was wondering the same thing... From their website.... "We pay our African communities more than their fair trade rate and are very happy and proud of that because they work really hard and we love them! However, we have not applied for the Fair Trade Certification yet, but are hoping to be able to do this by the end of this year".

Hi. I cannot guarantee the product of all sellers only my own product that was purchased directly from the company and shipped by them to me. We never open alter nor tamper with our products. There are many sellers and you may want to ask the seller you are considering purchasing from this question. Thank you

Agree with the other comment about checking the manufacturer website for this information for clarification - but your question got me thinking.... I referred to a few websites - i.e. http://bunnybeautiful.co.uk/the-animal-testing-naughty-list/#P that may be of interest - again I am not sure of these sites "credibility" but all the sites I referenced pretty much said the same thing: any company that sell cosmetic products in China animal testing is a legal requirement for cosmetics. Maybe someone else out there will be able to provide a more accurate answer - but with that said, I am now more aware of what things to look for when ordering cosmetics in the future.

We require a copy of an EPA certification or letter of intent to resale before this item is shipped. It is clearly stated in the listing. Thank you for your concern on the matter.

my seeds came from singapore with no organic certification. only about 30 seeds. and the declaration said it contained "a bag", is it not illegal to ship seeds from one country to another without declaring what your shipping? i only ordered 1 package of cherry tomato seeds, and since there is no paperwork or name of company on package, i am only guessing that they came from this order. very, very bad business ethics.

Exactly. I don't think we can be assured of authenticity. Is it even legal to repackage a product and represent it as the original? If I were the Haribo company (or any other vendor this happens to), I would not be happy.

FINALLY! Let me check over the weekend. It was an expired cert in the ask client (I think OEM went under) be cautiously optimistic but wait for a post. Thanks for the indirect heads up btw

DHC products are sold in China (where animal testing is required for all cosmetics), they're not Leaping Bunny certified and the issue is suspiciously absent from the company's list of "core values" on their website. Hmmmm...

I'm not sure why you wouldn't address your "concern" with the distributor directly. The only agency (currently) in this country that oversees and approves organic certifications is the USDA. I'm assuming you "knew" this already. But you asked as if there was more than one. I can't "protect" you from being "hurt" any more than a little green and brown sticker can,lol. What an unfortunate requirement you have. I'm an enthusiastically satisfied customer!! I've been using this company's raw butters for quite a bit of time now. And from the strength of mine and my family's experience alone I will speak it's utmost praise. They even have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Which again makes your "concern" more troubling. If you purchase the product, receive the product and it doesn't have your super sticker on it? Guess what? You get to return it! Aaaaand collect your money spent. I CAN say that they ARE compliant with the OTA's standard. Good luck strange friend! Love, Peace and Blessings...Always (*.*).V..

The only certification mentioned on the label is that of " Quality Assurance International ". This would be relevant to the organic integrity of the contents. Regardless of the certification one way or another we would recommend this product and have been using it for several years now for both men and women. A difference in health was noticed when we had temporarily run out! (as for complete Vitamin C ... easy and cheap to obtain as an additional supplement, which we normally do anyway)

Labels can be copied. And those who do sell the real thing on here get a bad rap because of those using unethical practices.

Mine is from San-ei The original tags I think were from Japan but as I started to learn when starting my Mario collection this year is that there are a lot of counterfeiters who make knock offs I've seen a few that look incredibly close to the real product down to counterfeiting the retail tag Mine I think is an actual boo although the face looks strange I do from time to time question it If you wanted more info on spotting counterfeiters there's a guides on line If you search "how to spot counterfeit plushies" If you wanted more info Most of the pages I read touch base on Pokemon but the information is the same regarding most Most easy ways to tell something is fake is Color Quality Different hang rope The tag is tucked away in a photo But sadly since a lot of game merchandise is from 3rd party sellers it's hard to tell if whomever you are dealing on line is going to give you what you want I hope this is helpful Have a great day
