Rakuten – are these fakes?

Been trying to max out the Rakuten offers this week and had to shop at a variety of stores to do so.

I bought two “Taylor of Bond Street” shaving creams from different stores on Rakuten, but they both arrived from the same address (Kung Nam village???) in exactly the same types of boxes and bubble wrap. One is meant to be in Korea and the other in Hong Kong.

Moreover, the bottles of shaving cream are slightly different in size and design even though they are both 75ml bottles of shaving cream made by the same company. They are slightly different types one is lime and the other coconut, but surely the packaging is gonna be the same company wide.

Any idea what is going on here? Did I just buy fakes?

  1. How the fuck is anyone here supposed to know?

    Yes, there is fake stuff on Rakuten. Also companies change designs and formulas all the time, and often have different offerings in different regions. If you’re bothered by it contact the company
