I also want to make a fairly largish point regarding ALL ebay pigment now - I recently had a Chartuese pigment in my hands. Now while the pigment itself was still the wrong colour I want to make it VERY CLEAR that the jar AND box it came were PERFECTLY IDENTICAL to authentic pigment jars and boxes. If the pigment itself had been a closer match on the swatch (it was about 5 shades too light) I wouldn't have called it, so please be VERY careful about ANY ebay pigment now unless you know the seller and where its coming from.

Panda's right on the dot as usual
. As I mentioned here before all the pigments I get direct from MAC I've been making notes of any changes. I buy from ebay here and there and mainly from 1 seller now and 1 other who does only email orders (she only buys direct from mac). Even though I know them I check everything still. I use to buy from others to see if theirs were fakes or not but stopped, it took up to much of my time reporting them, ect. The last one I did do, as Panda said everything looked right except when I did a color swatch. I do color swatch on all I get that's not direct. They are getting to good at these which is why if I do buy from my trusted seller I still check. If's it's a very old rare like all girl, ect.. then I'll take the chance and most the time it's the real thing and times it isnt. Those are the times I call mac to confirm the batch #'s ect unless it's very clear it's a fake.
I want to thank Panda for all of the helpful postings she does here and all of the time she's spends on doing it. I've been a seller for almost 5 years and she's shown me things, tips, explained the year of a color reformulated, ect... so again, thank you Panda
