[Gauge]

@Rivunited i am not taking any sides. I am just alarmed by seeing such a turn of sudden events this thread has taken. Nobody wants to be duped as it is their hard earned money which is on stake. I like everyone else expresses was shocked to see comments by fellow members and your buyers.
And yes I confirm that i sent you back my bottle of IsseyMiyake because i was doubtful about its genuineness. And you were the one in that case who offered me an option yourself either to get refund or get the bottle exchanged. I chose the latter and bought 3 more bottles instead because I trusted you and your words. Now i am just worried and dont want that trust to be betrayed. I would be really happy if you come clean out of all this.

Pretty much the same thing I am saying. I just want this cleared up.

Rivunited : You can probably post the courier shipping receipt(s) to show that it was you and not Atul who has sent it.
Edit: Or pm it to one of the mods to keep the addresses private.

Good Idea @Crazy_Eddy,
This should clear out every ones doubts and everyone can finally be relaxed.

I dont want to give away contact details and numbers publicly, So please check your PM and let them know what the senders name is in my receipts.
I just picked up whatever receipts I could find in front of me for now, If you want specific ones. Will have to hunt for them as i never thought i would really need these once you guys receive it.

Thanks!

There are still a few people who are yet to receive their perfumes, They can also post about what they see shows up.
And as I had said Daredvil, You are yet to receive your Issey Miyake. Please check that box too.
If every one gives their feed back now too then this confusion will get sorted and this issue should not be a problem. (being sent via same packaging and courier guys)

You do have my previous adg receipt and hhs receipt so pm them .also you can pm me my receipt .Also its quite possible you got perfumes from atul and shipped them.so if somebody is from mumbai please check rivunited dealer and also try to contact atul with the given phone no.Also it is mentioned in the thread there should be tester label and many people have posted screenshots and they do not have tester labels even my adg did not have tester label .so why is that also.

Also mr atul ships by overnight,bluedart,proffesional couriers as mentioned in the ebay page -http://www.ebay.in/itm/Original-branded-perfume-men-AcquaGio-100-ml-/180984693885?pt=IN_Perfumes&hash=item2a2387447d#ht_3987wt_1135
it is too much coincedence or what.

Daredvil, Overnite Courier is not a courier service that is a huge one. It's a very small courier service that ties up with other companies that ship to the regions that they do not. These guys dont even have a proper office, Its just really cheap and hence it worked out as a good option. Now next time i can have it shipped via a more reliable courier, Suggest me the most reliable one to send it through and I will opt for that.

Reading your edit:
What do you mean by returned? I am not following.
See dude, As per the people at overnite courier they say that the insurance is paid by them. I have to file a formal complaint to them with a letter and tracking ID and shipment details. And it is paid according to that.

overnight express have branches in gurgaon where zerocool lives so the arguement does not stand.

Ps to all previous go 1 and 2 members please check the add.

I have not bought a single item from u. But this post of urs doesn't make any sense.

Overnite is a cheap courier, True. If they dont have a service to a particular area, they tie up with blue dart??? A service that charges 250 to send a document across state lines?. What they do is call the consignee to come and pick up from the nearest office of theirs. Not send it via Bluedart or any other service. I been doing online purchases for around 10 years. Have used almost all the courier services in India. Yup, I have. This is the most ludicrous thing I have ever heard.

 

[Daredvil]

Also hahahari adg was from second group order and has the same package as mine in the third order .please all guys check your packages if you have them.Regarding couriers doing such things i have never come across such allegations ever .

 

[Zero Cool]

I am uploading a picture of the ADG bottle sent by Rivunited to me along with a couple of other bottles I could find of my family. The left most 100ml bottle is sent by Rivunited and the 200ml bottle as well as the miniature belongs to me. There is a major difference in smell and longevity. I am very very sure now that the bottle sent to me by Rivunited is a FAKE. I request Rivunited to come clear on all the accusations and refund my money back to my account ASAP. I will ship him his ADG bottle as soon as the funds are realized into my account.

 

[vijayshimla]

Btw, even my package said Atul Gupta. Unfortunately I have thrown the package but remember the name on it.

Same with me- i had noticed this name Atul Gupta on the outer package of 4 nos perfumes received by me- but discarded the packing material, as is usual. Well my fingers are burnt- will be very wary in future !

 

[Zero Cool]

IIRC, In future you can try shopping perfumes from Munshiram Nanakchand , it's a shop on mall road bang opposite the municipal building. very near to the fire station. It had a photo studio on the first floor.

Hey Riv, Maybe you are genuine and it's the dealer who's duped you, but I just don't have the time to follow this up. So please refund my money as the order hasn't been shipped yet. My bank details have been pm'ed to you.

I know man,Many of us went through this deal as it was promised the perfumes are testers from dubai and as good as retail ones with a tester label also the trust that a fellow member would never fool us .

 

[wecaz]

Guys,

As per Rivunited, his dealer uses someone Else's services for packaging and delivering. The packer packs and ships the items.

In our case, the following things happen:
Rivunited deals with his dealer and fixes the cost and shipping charges (so, shipping is dealer's headache. Rivunited get tracking details from dealer).
We give order to Rivunited, who after deducting some margin, passes the order to dealer.
Dealer provides the perfume bottles and shipping address to this packer.
Packer takes care of the delivery to the end user(to us).

I called the same number and asked how he get in between my transaction with a third person(Rivunited). Why I have my courier receipts with his name and address? It turns out that this guy, the packer, happens to be a seller too. They are bothers and do more than one business together. He packs and deliver perfumes, watches etc. The items to be shipped are provided by original dealer. This packer takes care of his part, but mentions his name and address for the shipping and custom purposes(I do have a declaration with the package). He confirms that in case of any problem with the order, the original dealer needs to be contacted, not the packer. (These things may needed to be cross verified, if required.)

To me, it all seems to be in order. The 'interactions with Rivunited' and 'the new information above' make sense together.

If someone wants to dig deeper, he has to meet:
Rivunited, Rivunited's dealer, Dealer's packager.

Order? whats the guarantee its not ajithperfumeshop themselves who are selling the bottles .They are a large shop on ebay he himself told me look at there ratings its highly unlikely they do packing for another perfume dealer.

 

[Zero Cool]

All this still does not change the fact that the perfume he sent me (maybe to all of us) is a FAKE. I really dont mind Rivunited making some money on this deal, but what I do mind is being sold a FAKE in the name of a genuine product.

Also after all the hoopla happening since yesterday, i am not ready to ship the bottle first and then wait for a refund.

I called the same number and was answered by brother Ajit Gupta.
This is not yours or mine headache if bottles are replaced by someone. If the bottles received are not genuine, Rivunited will provide a solution. Until now has resolved all the problems by replacements or refunds.

I had agreed to pick up the perfumes from the OP, but now it doesn't feel right anymore. Would you mind sharing info on Mr. Sudhir and in your experience does he sell genuine perfumes?

Thanks

Did u actually read what u typed? . He is in the same business and he does packaging for this brother, the original vendor whom the OP sources from. And you already know what one brother prices it and what the qlty of his wares are. Even if u go to the actual dealer, what u gonna gather?
you already know they are brothers in the same business. So will the dealer will say, just for TE the materials are different? Or differently priced?

This thread has to the most weirdest thread ever.

Is it coz most of the people who bought this item spend way too much money and didn't had any idea how to check if a perfume is original or not?
To be honest, I was just checking few articles about fake ones. Fake ones will be damn near to the original in smell. Not all can identify.
They differ in how they react to skin, longevity, materials used for composition etc. Its not the bottles, screen printing, packaging that matters.
And to be honest the refund and exchange policy by the OP, if this is a fake this has to be the best system. Coz for the few that wasnt satisfied they get their money back.
For the others who got no clue or have "buyers justification" they will keep this thinking it is original/tester.

I wasnt going to say this here, But i did check out the watches price send by OP. I was really intd in 2 or 3. But the prices were astronomicaly high. Even when comparing to ebay prices. :S.
I asked few friends in singapore for the tag heur and panerai, the prices he gave was 1/3rd what the OP send me. . I did send a PM to the OP and ofc he didnt reply. I also thght, his items, his price. Why should he heed to my words.
