One of my family members bought Ninja Crispi on a Norwegian website where people sell mostly used things but this one was apparently an unopened, unused gift. The price was about 40% lower than in the store here.

As I have some bad experiences with buying electronics online I started to wonder - could it be a counterfeit? Are they common and how to spot them? What should we check?

We have never heard about Ninja Crispi until watching a youtube video about 2 weeks ago heh, so we had no idea that apparently they are popular and fake ones can be found.

Do you have any experiences with them?

I moved from a big city abroad to quite a tiny place in Norway. We don’t have many stores here so yeah, I order things from the internet on a regular basis and sometimes I receive gifts from my family in other countries. It all makes me use Posten’s services a lot.

The problem is…I feel like there is something wrong with 1/3 of the shipments.
My packages keep being delivered to different people in my city / neighbouring cities (and I would have never known about it if not those people finding me on facebook on texting) or to pickup point in completely different regions of Norway. Additionally, every time I order something with "fragile" written on it (like glass), the packages come broken and destroyed like someone jumped on them.

Also, it takes less time to deliver a package from Spain to Oslo than from Oslo to my town (sometimes 2 weeks hehe) and it’s only a 2,5 h drive.

Is it a standard or am I just very unlucky?
I have lived in a few countries and never experienced this amount of issues with the post, I’m honestly scared to order things that are not super cheap at this point.
