Fake Pink GHD Mk4

Recently I had first hand experience of purchasing fake pink GHD's. I was low on stock last week and 2 of my customers wanted Pink GHD's. My authorised GHD supplier was out of stock so I sought to purchase them on ebay. I bought 2 of them off the same seller and also managed to purchase them cheaper than my stockist. When they arrived, what a shock..they were very good fakes. To an untrained eyeone would assume them to be genuine. I was lucky becauseI had one of the originals in my salon.


The fake Pink could easily be removed from its box without breaking the seal. Once inside, the plastic packaging seemed cheaper and was cracked in certain area's. The literaturebooks had images of the wet line products and its pictures were somewhat slightly pixelised. The pink wrap bag had sub standard stitching and its logo was also a bit suspect. The iron was slightly lighter in weight. The hologram on the cable was also not secured properly, one could easily prize it off and overall the box and its contents were lighter than an original. These were all tell tale signs of a fake.


I reported it via paypal as a dispute and the seller paid back my money in full including p
