Well, the jury is still out.  I suppose its buyer beware.  I'm sure most sellers are reputable but I'm also certain that there are a few crooked ones out there as well.  The gunthy renker stuff is probably a ton of stuff people recieve on their auto delivery plans.  My friend just  signed up with gunthy renker and she already was sent a ton of stuff.  I'm also sure that some people go nuts buying from the Q and then sell what they dont need.  I can certainly see how that happens!  I'm glad many of you have found some good reputable buyers.  I read about a summer honey peach deal that was phenomenal.  Sorry to have missed that one.


 

Tell your friend that she can change her GR auto deliveries to 5 months instead of three.  That way, she won't be buried in CCs.

Get your flu shot...because I didn't.

If you look on the bottom of the bottles, it will have a series of numbers. One set is the item/stock number and the other is the production date. For example...my 2oz Remoist has 82136 (identifies the product) and 140707 is the production date. 14 represents year 07 is month and 07 is day. Hence July 7, 2014 is when it was made.

emails with you😇

I'm sure there are legit sellers on eBay and Amazon, I just wouldn't know who they are. For that reason, I stick with Chaz Dean Studio and QVC.

Okay, so I just received a SCLV oil from eBay and noticed that the oil did not have that specific production date sequence on it but instead had "MFG. 04/2015". Frantically thinking it was a fake I checked out my SCLV 32 oz CC that I just received from the Q and it had the same thing, "MFG. 04/2015".

 

I then checked out my 1 oz oil SCLV from the Q and that also had the "MFG. 04/2015"

 

SO.... went to check my 4oz oil SHP that I ordered from Chaz's site last month and it has the older production date "140430", my 1 oz oil SHP & 16oz CC from last year states "140429".

 

 

I'm thinking that Chaz changed the exp date on the bottles. Just so everyone is aware there are 2 different expiration dates now. Older formulas have "YEARMONTHDATE", where as newer produced items will have "MFG. MONTH/YEAR". Both are authentic Wen.Cat Happy

 

Edited to add: my CA gallon from this year from the Q also has the new expiration date "03/20/2015"

Caitlin, thanks so much for sharing this information. I only buy through QVC or Chaz's salon, but a number of Wenners do go through the bay. With all the fakes, there seems to be a lot of vetting needed, so it's good to know that the expiration date formatiing on the bottome of the bottles has changed.

So CaitlinH, I'm curious.... Did you get a better price on Ebay than you could get with the SCLV being a featured price on QVC?  Or maybe you purchased one of the 1 oz sizes?  Sorry for being nosey but I'm just curious. Those  1oz sizes are so convenient for throughing in your bag, arent they?

That might have been me bidding against you on that SCLV oil Smiley Embarassed

I'm glad you got it & maybe she'll list some more Smiley Wink

ROTFL!!!!Cat LOL

I'm so sorry!!!! I was actually thinking it might've been one of us from the Q bidding on it! No worries @FleaMktQn I am very rarely on eBay anyways, only when I'm desperate. But that CLV was just too good, eh?!?!?!?

Yes !!!! The CLV everything is my fav, followed close by SHP, and I would like to have a 4 oz CLV oil.

Don't know why, don't need it, I have 5 big bottles of SHP oil LOL...Maybe I'll flip one & get a CLV Smiley LOL

The CLV oil is so light & smells so good
