Fake Eyeshadow Refills

[MACwinked]

I bought two eyeshadow refills off ebay from a formerly trusted seller, but now I am suspicious. I have never bought a PRO eyeshadow refill, so that's why I am asking about these.

I got the color "aqua" and "coral" and the packaging looks like some I've gotten from buying regular refills on maccosmetics.com, but the sticker on the bottom of these is what's throwing me off. The ONLY thing on the bottom of the refills are:

AQUA
AB7

and

CORAL
A78

Are pro refills done this way unlike the other refills, or did I get scammed?

Thanks, but there's nothing there about fake packaging or fake labels on the bottom of the refills. That's what I'm questioning. They are legitimate colors for sure, just not if they are actual MAC products.

I have the Coral refill pan, it is a pro color, bought it from the MAC store. Not sure about the other one.

Hopefully this will help you all let me know if these are real.

Does it look like the picture posted above?

That's what mine look like.. none of the pro colours I have, list a finish.

They seems legit to me. All Pro color pan only get the name of the color with a batch code, nothing more on it.

My Coral looks exactly like that that I have from the Pro Store...

i agree with everyone. i have a few pans brought from the pro store look like that too. just name and batch code with nothing else.

most of the pans i got from pro store and all the ones i got from the regular mac store seem to have small writings close to the edge of the sticker though
