Is this legitimate or a Creative copycat?!

[pure]

I have just received this message via my website. What do you think?

This is a quick message from Creative South-West, ***address and phone number removed***. Just to let you know we are now fully operational and have a wide range of Creative Nail products for sale at discounted prices. Please call for further information or to place an order. Orders over £50 - free next day delivery.

Seemed a little strange. :irked:

Now what do you think :lol:

I am guessing its unlikely :hug:

Perhaps an April Fools joke?

 

[Cathie!]

Does the telephone number match Katrina Kneebone's details?

Googled the telephone number and it belongs to a Solarium in that location, cant find anything about selling CND products though

:hug:

:lol: It might well have changed hands or be a nail salon now, I'd think S2 will be the ones who can say if they are legit suppliers though.........

I'd give the Sweet's a call! If it is, fair enough. If it's not, they might like to know!

 

[Lucy-Jayne]

As per yell.com it's an Electric Beach Tanning Studio!

 

[absolutly fab!]

I don't know how it works in the UK, but here, all authorised CND distributers have to sell at the same price. The only discounts are set by the importers and are across the board.

I would have sent this in a PM to Mr or Mrs Geek, i am sure they would like to know about it, especially if they are not legit hth

 

[Mrs Geek]

Oh yes, we know about them... in fact we have all the details of what they are doing sent to us from lovely customers in that area who felt we should know about it. I just received another today actually.

NO they are not authorised and they are illegally using images and logos on their literiture. They will know soon enough how we feel about it or maybe right now when they read it on here.... which they probably will!

Some people are so stupid!!

On the other hand though, if had of been legit then it being confirmed on here wouldn't do any harm and as they aren't, it's a good 'take heed' to anyone else who might contemplate doing what they did. I know most wouldn't but anyone else just got a good warning!

:hug:

haven't done anyone else's nails in a while (long story, view my blog entry!!!) and have never used Creative but went to chippy last week and saw a pricelist from a local salon....with that pretty blond Creative girl (pink ribbons, breastcancer like nails?) on the front!!! I actually lost the plot and started ranting and raving with husband getting all flustered.....

I wouldn't use a particular brands image unless i was associated with that brand! It never said in the pricelist that she was Creative trained (and me being Magnetic, ezFlow, NSI) I know what it feels like to be proud of a big brand under your belt, so the fact that it is NOT mentioned means she isn't??????

silly cow....:irked: Cannot believe people can get away with all that stuff!!!!!
But I am a technical helpdesk for computers person now and shouldn't really care!!! :lol:
