Did I purchase a fake nutribullet?

[i-love-elliebellemoo]

Hi everyone, I purchased a nutribullet this afternoon on here. I have since discovered there are fake ones and now I'm worried. I emailed the seller and they replied that they have reputable suppliers but the nutribullet website states they are the only Australian resellers. Can anyone offer any advice here I am so confused.

Nobody is judging you for wanting to get value for money.....we all want to do that.

But most of us make quite sure of what we want to buy before hitting that magic button and then mucking the seller around, especially when you buy before a discount offer starts then want to cancel to rebuy at the reduced price.

And to cancel a second time to buy an item that is double the price of your first choice item.....that is what has left some posters shaking their heads.

That really is not the way ebay works.

Maria, don't worry too much about the replies here, there are some who are taking the thread off-topic, but you should maybe have made it a bit clearer what was happening in your situation.

The boards can be a nerve-wracking place sometimes but the vast majority of members here are more than willing to help other members out with their problems.

Don't be afraid to come back here if you need help.

Padi.

"edit" lyndal you're right in what you said that the seller has been mucked around somewhat, but it was all a very confusing post to start with, and didn't get any better as time went on.

The original seller (Target) was royally mucked around Padi and ended up losing the sale completely when Maria was able to find the money to buy a blender for triple the price of a Nutribullet, along with several other quite expensive items.

lyndal, after reading your post I went back to maria's earlier post and realised that there'd been a double cancellation on the nutribullets and a purchase of another more expensive blender.

I'm hanging my head in shame for not being more observant..........................................abject apologies may be necessary perhaps.

There hasn't been a double cancellation. I only cancelled the second order where I used the 15% off code. The first NutriBullet has arrived and is sitting here at home. 

What other "expensive items" by the way? I buy bags from overseas and Sell them for a profit here on eBay and use the profit towards my purchases of items that I need. 

I still don't understand why so much negativity? I paid more money so a blender could last me not one year but 10 years. Aweful place to talk about anything.

maria, the Optimum blenders for the professional models are around double or more the price of the Nutribullets as far as I can see.

Quote.  "Just an update from me. I cancelled the order for second NutriBullet from target eBay store. And instead used my 15% code to buy the optimum 9200A blender. Have paid a little bit extra and have gotten 10 years warranty. This machine is a commercial blender and will absolutely eat a NutriBullet without a problem. Even the original NutriBullets don't last over a year with daily use. And they don't blend as finely as a vitamix or an optimum. I am very happy with my purchase. Money very well spent. "

So fair enough that you bought one of those, and kept one of the Nutribullets as well, but the error was in changing your mind mid-stream so to speak, it's not a good thing to do and you may find that the seller you cancelled with has put you on their blocked list for that reason.

I'm really not trying to be negative towards you but there are consequences when you cancel orders on eBay.

[lyndal1838]

You need to read the blender listing properly.....you only have a 5 year warranty, not 10 as you have mentioned several times.

And you have already stated that you do not want the Nutribullet and will be returning it to Target....that is a cancellation and a return but still means Target lost the sale but did nothing wrong.

Do your buyers treat you with the disrespect that you are showing to your sellers?   Are you happy about it?

[padi*0409]

Yep, you're correct lyndal only 5 years on those models................................

I nearly bought one last week prices were dropping. Decided all were fakes except Target and eBay listed ones as they gave a genuine manufactures warranty. And product number.

i bought a Nutri Ninga slim 700 watt from JB Hifi , it works like a dream
