Is this a counterfeit Aneros Helix?

I just received my Aneros Helix Trident ordered from a (reputable) french online shop, but I have doubts about its authenticity.

The box says “Made in China” and lacks the “CE” logo for European Conformity. Also, while it’s my very first toy, the plastic it’s made from is not what I expected…

  2. This is what happens when you outsource your manufacturing to China. A few months later, counterfeits are being made down the road. But your CFO tells you to reduce your margins.

    May I politely suggest you manufacture in a nation that does not steal your Intellectual Property?

  3. I don’t think the Chinese would go into the trouble of making such a nice box to be honest? You have a pic of the toy itself?

  4. OP Here, small update.

    I contacted the shop’s Customer Service, and after sending pictures of the box, they asked me to send the toy back without fees.

    I will probably return it, order from an Official Reseller. I will then be able to compare and let you guys know…

  5. Mine is don’t have “Made in China” words. And don’t have that Xbiz awards sticker. Aside from those, it’s pretty much the same.
