The most important rule when buying goods from the market is to pay attention to the seller. It should be the brand itself or its official dealer, and in the case of parallel imports, the marketplace itself. If you still have doubts that another seller is hiding under the brand label, you should go to their official website – certain marketplaces often have links to the company’s official products. This was told to socialbites.ca by Daria Tatarinova, Executive Director of TEAM DEEM fulfillment operator.
“You can be deceived even when you see the relevant brand logo from the seller, but this does not always indicate that the product is original. Hover your mouse over the brand name or the “i” icon next to it. The official name should be displayed there, not “IP Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich”. In the second case, the buyer has the right to request additional documents for the franchise or the goods.
It can also be said from the cost that the product is fake. If the product is much cheaper than the original or has a huge discount, this is reason to think. The specialist noted that the discount on the original product can be no more than 10-20%.
“Order delivery to PVZ so that you have time to calmly look at the goods with a selective look, without the need for a courier to breathe your soul. A good life trick is to know what the original looks like and keep it in your hand – then it will be easier for you to compare and figure out if it’s a fake in front of you. Also look at the barcode of the product: most often on the manufacturer’s website you can check whether the product is in the database, ”said Daria Tatarinova.
He reminded the buyer that if a fake has already been sent or if the product does not fit him, he has the right by law to return it to the seller within 14 days, even if the packaging is not sealed.
