Unfortunately fakes are getting very very convincing unless you do your research or have another you know is genuine that you can compare side by side.
I recently purchased a pair of pit boss II at a good price used and everything looked legit but when I got them in and closely inspected them they were fakes. These fakes were extremely good, serial number was correct, polarized etching on the lens, color on the plates was perfect, and the correct Philips screws in behind the orbitals. Things I caught were an Allen head screw instead of a torx on the orbitals and the etching on the inside of the arm where the pit boss logo is the 'o' in the logo was not the correct font. Also the bottom of the orbital where the plates meet the plastic was a little too rounded over and looked a little thin compared to a genuine one.
These got sent back in the mail today as that's the only way I could get a refund or these would have been posted on YouTube going into a blendtec blender lol.
