Well I know that OPI doesn't sell online, but this wholeseller sells to salons etc. Normally I only buy them from salons so I know they are authentic but this one rare time I thought why not try this wholeseller place. But I am sure they are fake, but I have used a couple of them and they are not bad actually. But I don't plan on buying anymore from this person/company. These bottles that they did sell me look exactly like the original ones and even say made in USA so it's a pretty good fake. However the fakes ones don't have a number beside the OPI on the left that is noticable but neither do my original ones and I know those are real. I've also never seen the raised OPI logo inside above the brush in Canada.

I would be very vary of ones with no stickers, or even only one sticker as being fake. Also check the brush inside, it should have a raised up OPI logo at the end inside above the brush. To the left of O.P.I on the bottle is a number on the bottle which should be visible (just). I think I might do a post one this a bit later with some picks. But I would unfortunately be wary of the ones you bought, especially from China (real OPI is made in USA)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280496331096345122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927906457480817763.post-84839924544372654682010-08-03T16:11:52.813+12:002010-08-03T16:11:52.813+12:00Hi Lisa,

Do you by any chance know of how you can tell between real and fake OPI nail polishes? Currently in Canada they are sold anywhere from $9-$13cad I've never really seen it being sold for more then that. And usually I buy them from salons. I recently found a wholeseller online in China i believe and sells opi nail polish. I did receive them but now i'm starting to think they are fake, they are nice and really good copies so i'm not too worried about it. I just wanted to know for my sake! :) They are all different colors yet they all have the same peel me sticker on the bottom and just one when i'm used to see two stickers. They all also are the same sticker with the same name on them. A few of them don't have the sticker at all. I ordered ten of them and they came in a OPI box as well that fits 6 polishes each. I don't know if you can tell but let me know.

DS from shops in New Zealand are about $45 though, so they are expensive, and thats when ordering online is better (but it always costs quite a bit to get anything sent to NZ)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280496331096345122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927906457480817763.post-56857002223015464842010-08-02T11:11:37.764+12:002010-08-02T11:11:37.764+12:00Where do you guys order online from?

Farmers has proper OPIs and Kirks has the biggest most amazing display of OPI I have ever seen in Wellington - really worth a look just so see all the pretty colour - and they have testers :) they also have all the Designer Series Polishes there.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280496331096345122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927906457480817763.post-23866135279388710022010-05-16T20:07:38.715+12:002010-05-16T20:07:38.715+12:00I had the same thing on Trade Me with the Funny Bu...I had the same thing on Trade Me with the Funny Bunnies- they didn't respond to my questions GRRRR!!!

I've often wished there were a "comment on auction" feature on eBay so could point things out to other bidders--but I guess that might get out of hand because dickheads would abuse that too.KarenDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05022790587742613590noreply@blogger.com
