Thanks for the info Honny! A lot of this is new to me so I'm soaking in all the advice you ladies dish out! I've only been using WEN for a couple months but it has made a difference in my hair. I love it.

Try emailing the high volume sellers and asking.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sellers typically won't reveal buying sources.... especially if they're successful.I personally think some are selling Q returns. Years ago, I looked into buying returnsfrom QVC. They sell palettes of customer returns in various categories.... it was quite an investment for me at the time so I passed. But it should be easy to check into...

That does not settle well with me at all. Especially considering I recently returned a Wen item I purchased from QVC. When I opened the remoist, it had a black hair in the product.

OMG w84WEN! That's pretty gross! I often wonder about some of the returns that QVC gets back!

I don't know but just bought a comb for $5.99 and no shipping. $15 elsewhere. I'm thinking about buying more for that price.

[HonnyBrown]

Maybe they resell the items at their outlet, Marshalls or nomorack?

I haven't seen Wen at Marshalls, but I saw one of my pre-Wen hair products there. When I opened it, it was obviously used.

I don't even want to think about the comb.

Its apparent to me that some vendors are buying volumes of the TSV's and reselling items separately. I wish QVC had a way to disallow that....I find it offensive.

What would QVC do?

After something is purchased and delivered, the buyer can do anything they want with it.

I don't know what QVC would do. I am sure people will just create more user names/accounts if QVC limits the amount that could be purchased by one account.

Of course, someone can do whatever they want with whatever they purchase. However, I find it repugnant any way you want to slice it. Someone is at home probably collecting unemployment, while making money off someone else's product...sorry, it rubs me the wrong way.

I expect others to disagree, but my feelings won't change about it.

I emailed an eBay Wen supplier and asked. This isn't much help but this is her response:

Dear ,

from wen they are new and I have receipts I don't sell fake wen like other ppl on ebay I have proof of purchase

Hi City,
Where do you get your Wen products from?

[kh27]

I have asked two different sellers ebay sellers if their Wen was the GR or QVC version-more for my own knowledge if I ended up purchasing so I could compare to the QVC bottles I have (and I actually kind of like the extra menthol in GR). Both were happy to provide that information. I didn't question how they got their products. I've only ordered a few past seasonals but I believe all the ones I ordered were authentic and unused

Careful, they could be watered down. I found that out with a very popular skin care product from a regular vendor on the Q who went after eBay for selling their products without their knowledge or permission.
