Fake Labubu Dolls #TooGoodToBeTrue? |
||
Good afternoon, We've received reports from residents across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight with concerns about fake Labubu dolls. Portsmouth Trading Standards have taken action against sellers of fake items, and kindly issued some very useful advice which is applicable across the constabulary area. Here are their top tips when buying a Labubu Doll:
Check for a foot stamp - a genuine Labubu Doll has a Pop Mart logo on the right foot Check the packaging is intact and in good condition Packaging should have a UK suppliers address on it Check for poor quality stitching or loose parts Check for the CE or UKCA mark The QR code on the packaging should link to a genuine website If it is considerably cheaper than normal, it is likely to be fake Fake toys can be dangerous as they are often not made from safe materials or undergo safety testing.
If you suspect a shop or website is selling fake Labubu dolls please report to Trading Standards via Citizens Advice consumer service: 0808 223 1122 or online at https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/.../if-you-need-more.../
