Is this a fake Vision Spinner 2?

[dj9928]

I purchased this from a large chain b+m store here in the UK, I had issues charging it so thought it might be a fake, I wouldn't care if it was a fake and I paid half price or something for it but I paid full price £25





Its came with no scratch card, has white writing instead of black on the battery, has a shinney power button, when power on and off the light is a like a bluey red rather than blue.

Power on and off will be a mix of the White, blue and orange/red as all colours flash when turning on/off, charging issues I assume you mean it doesn't charge fully? Again that's normal on a genuine spinner, when it says it's charged take it off charge then put it back on (spinner double dip) should charge fully then

But what about the lack of a scratch card?

Its fake, immediate tell is the white Vision logo on a silver battery.

The voltage alignment notch is red in the picture. All my Vision Spinner IIs have a black notch.

No scratch card doesnt immediately make it a possible fake but sorry to say just from the pictures i seen online just now all the silver ones had black writing and not white and all the colored ones had white writing.

I found this pdf online that outlines how to tell if your Vision Spinner II is a fake.

Mine has a red alignment notch. Mine has the black logo on it though, and I checked the scratch card, authentic. My other one has the black notch though. It's also authentic.

I had one without the scratch card.

It was a fake.

Bought from my local https://gotojoes.com/

They took it back and gave me store credit.

Now I see they no longer have them on their website but I wont use the store again for anything.
