o jeeze thats such an obvious fake!
and the response she gave u man the nerve of her!
she says she doesnt list them as being genuine MAC but yet she still sells them under the MAC name so thats tricking the buyer and having shavings of plastic and lint inside the container somebody could definitly get hurt.
stuff like this is why i dont buy off ebay luckly i have a pro store and a cco very close to me so i dont need to.

Well there's not even a freestanding store in my area and the nearest CCO is a 3 hour round trip
But I only purchase backup powder products from EBAY so that I have an authentic items to compare with Quote:

i emailed the buyers, gave them a link to specktra and the link to your pics with proof.... and let's hope that the buyers are smart enough not to buy it... or buy it and actually see that they are fake and complain about it..

Thank you very much that was actually on my To Do list today. I also emailed the seller telling her exactly why I left negative feedback even though she provided me with a refund I felt it was irresponsible of her to continue selling those items when she was made aware they were counterfeit especially since she did not bother to change the wording of her listings so people would know they were purchasing fakes and that usage of them was at their own risk

It's actually a criminal offence to sell counterfeit products here in the UK so now that she knows the products are fake she shouldn't sell them. I also have confirmation that the Diorshow mascaras she's sold dozens of are fake too. Simply describing counterfeit products on eBay as "copies" breaks eBay rules as well as the law.
The first picture attached below is the fake Diorshow mascara followed by the real mascara. The lettering on the upper part which forms the logo is totally different.

I have to tell you - I checked the counterfeit mac thread b/c I was suspicious that my coco pigment I bought from think*beauty was fake b/c i didn't see a name on the bottom. Well, guess what? i believe I have the very pigment jar and box Toby1 took pictures of. think*beauty sent it to me. I can tell b/c the placement of the stickers on the box and the bottom of the jar are in exactly the same spot.
I emailed think*beauty and told her it was fake and want my $ back plus shipping. I will post more after I get a response from her!
This is how she replied:
"I am so sorry about this! Please send back to me. I will of course refund you fully including shipping cost."

If I can't swatch it, spread it, wear it, compare it in person. I don't want it. Besides, I don't like waiting for shipping, especially for my M*A*C BECAUSE I WANT IT NOW DAMNIT!
