Fake MAC blush on Ebay

[QueenEmB]

I just received a fake MAC Dollymix blush from a seller called alltogether

The packaging is identical to a normal blush even down to the barcoding on the box but I noticed that the font of the writing on the little sticker on the box that says Dollymix was in a more spaced out font than my others.

The main difference is the product itself - it's chalky and really loose in the pan - a light swipe with a brush lifts loads of product and makes a real mess and there is loads of chunky glitter in the pan.

The seller is a real piece of work as well - accusing me of having a hidden agenda just because I said I won't return the product because I don't want him to sell it on to some other unsuspecting person.

I will post photos but AVOID THIS SELLER.

I'm sorry that such a thing has happened - please do post pictures of the blush you have received, including the box.

I have taken a look at the seller's items and the blushes do look suspect. I can't say for sure on some of their other items but they do have some very unusual items.

Dollymix is one of the very popular fakes - if anyone wants to buy this one get it direct from MAC!

He's threatening to get his lawyers on to my if I "slander" him - I reminded him that it's only slander if it's LIES.

He isn't admitting to it though - he says if i send it back he will compare it to a product from a MAC store and if he agrees it is counterfeit then he will refund my money. If he doesn't think it's fake (who's betting this is pretty much a certainty?!) then he will refund me minus 25% handling fee (which I'm not accepting - I'm not being ripped off twice!)

As far as he is concerned he is being fair with me.

Once you part with it I doubt you will see it or your $ again. File with paypal.

Just as a side track - we know the fake e/s has crappy indented pans - has anyone tried depotting a fake blush and comparing to a real depotted blush?

Posting pics would really help...

You need to return the product to him or be prepared to be out your money and with you holding a potentially counterfeit product.

If you file a claim with Paypal, Paypal requires that the item to be returned in the condition that it was received in. You will need to use tracking. Once all that is done, you will probably receive your money back from paypal. Notice I said probably...

yeah i figured this - which is why i'm sticking to my guns and trying to get a full refund through paypal and i'm not returning the item - it's only fit for the trash anyway.

i better not depot it then incase I need to return it in pristine condition... i'm betting that mine will be exactly like that though!

 

[QueenEmB]

Curiosity got the better of me and I depotted it....and guess what? Yep you guessed - ridges on the underside of the pan.

BUSTED.
