How do we know this isn't a counterfeit product? I notice some of the reviews state that they received counterfeits. Not sure what to expect.

They come in the correct speck packaging with all the paperwork and everything

The black & white one i got is the exact same one from the apple store, just way cheaper price. It's not counterfeit, definitely the Speck product it says it is :)

I honestly can't answer that question. I got one at the phone store when I upgraded my phone and it cost about $45 if I remember correctly. My wife purchased this one for about half that cost, and we do not notice any difference between them. (For me though, it is just a case for my phone so I honsetly would not care if it were the "real thing" or a counterfeit.)

I guess looking at the previous answers I didn't realize the counterfeit are that close to the real deal? Whatever it is I got, it's exactly like my old Speck case, so it's a really close replica if it isn't real! Works, fits perfect, does the job.

I think you would need to address this question to Amazon or the seller. The product I received did not appear to be "counterfeit". I have purchased other Speck products through Amazon with no problem.

Sorry, I have no idea how you would tell the difference. I purchased mine on Amazon,and I am extremely satisfied with it. I did not even know counterfeit Speck cases wereout there. Perhaps you should ask someone who feels they have a counterfeit case, ask them how they know.

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.

Mostly likely they are real. I watched reviews on YouTube and the packaging was the same thing. But I don't know if the seller is secretly selling used ones and listing them as new.

I don't have reason to believe they are counterfeit. I'd never heard of them until they "popped up" on Amazon when I was looking for something else.

One way to tell if a review is fake, is if it says amazon verified purchase on it. If they at least purchased the product from Amazon it is less likely to be a fake. Another way to tell is by reading them, most of the fake reviews are the sorts you would hear on the infomercials. Like, This product is great, i have tried many weight loss supplements with no effect. But once i tried "product" i just couldn't believe the difference. They usually talk about how this is the only product for them, and try to discourage you from buying other products. Or just plain and simple leave a simple review not explaining their experience with the product, and just claiming it works. People get paid to leave fake reviews, so just because they have prior reviews doesn't always mean they are real reviews. Maybe the previous ones were fake as well. Or maybe they were a previous member who shopped on amazon and now is doing fake reviews for companies. All of those are possibilities. So just pay close attention to the reviews, check to see if they are verified purchases, and if they sound too good to be true. Usually your gut instincts will kick in and tell you that a review is fake.

Depends....mine was counterfeit. Be aware that everything you buy from Amazon doesn't come from the Amazon warehouses. There are often 3rd party resellers involved - that's where the bogus items come from. If the item states "sold and shipped by Amazon", it's usually the real deal. So....just make sure Amazon is the seller.

The one I received did not do anything for me so I would assume it was a fake. And it was from Bargin tan. The other products I received from there seemed to work fine.

They are genuine IF you buy directly from Amazon and not through third-party sellers. Some sellers are legit but most are not. Also, if for any reason you think that you received a counterfeit from Amazon (which is rare) you can just simply return them.

It looks genuine and comes with ELKAY guarantee. Of course Amazon can sell counterfeit products and the guarantees can be faked but I think this is not too likely.

With a 4 1/2 star rating and over 200 comments it's hard to believe these could be counterfeit. I'd say your more than likely got a bad one, or someone touched the bulb with their bare hands. Hopefully Amazon can help. Good luck.

I wouldn't know between authentic or counterfeit, but the products (shampoo and conditioner) I received are very, very thick and come out of a squeeze tube-like bottle almost like toothpaste. I really like what it does for my hair.

Not sure how they are getting away with that. It is a clear violation of the counterfeit laws. It works fine, so no complaints from me. Even if it was listed as an aftermarket product, for the price I would have still purchased it.

These are Drop Shipped as are most of our products, direct from the Distributor. I was waiting for some answers from them on other issues today but they never did get back to me. So did it come in just a plain corrugated box or in some other manufacturers packaging? I can't imagine, as large and respected as this distributor is that they would ship anything but the genuine article. Maybe it had something to do with the shipping container and the fit. If you just received it and think that it is not genuine or you may want it replaced, do not use it for now if you have any reason to think it might be returned. I won't be able to reach them now until Monday and if need be I can have them call you to explain. I really don't think there are any knock offs or other brands of that product but we can ask them. Are there any other product numbers, embossed markings that may indicate the brand? There is an SKU for it but I don't know if it is embedded in the material or not. Let me know if you want me to continue to verify this and I will get with them and then back to you or have them contact you. Thanks, Bob Sex-Trix

I am concerned about that too. Amazon's policies forbid selling counterfeit products, but some of their 3rd party associates have been accused of doing that anyway. Amazon seems to police unethical and illegal activity, but how aggressively I can't be sure. My feeling is that PSPC (the manufacturer) would complain loudly if they had specific evidence that an Amazon associate was selling counterfeit products. However, the only way we can be certain is to buy it from our vets and pay their profit margins. Who knows, that might be the smarter call.

I find that if I buy only "sold from and ships by Amazon.com" I have no issue with fake stuff. Third party vendors and you never know what you're really getting.
