GHDs from amazon (genuine)

Options
http://www.amazon.co.uk/ghd-IV-Styler-Hair-Straightener/dp/B000CSLJDW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=drugstore&qid=1249638272&sr=1-1

I know amazon are on GHDs approved online retailers list but these are despatched and sold by Pauls Hair World.

Does this mean they're OK or not?

    IMO - go for it!

    They are £110 on Pauls Hair World, and the website seems to be a legitimate company. I would give Pauls office a ring just for peace of mind

    ...then be cheeky and ask for a £5 discount, explaining that they will save selling fees if they sell them to you direct!!!!

    I'm not sure, they're probably ok with Amazon selling them, don't think they'd sell counterfeits.

    I bought some GHDs from ebay, to ensure they were real I asked the seller for the code on the label near the plug and phoned GHD to confirm that they were real, then picked them up in person.

    Given that the OP has Paul in his own name and blokes dont usually worry about hair straightners my suspicious little mind wonders if this isnt a bit of self promotion.

    Don't think so.......99% of self-promoters/spammers have a post count of less than 10 - most of their posts being on the same subject, plus the name Paul is quite popular, if you haven't noticed!

    LOL. You lot are dead suspicious.

    No. Not that same Paul honestly.

    Notice Pauls hair salons are in the North West.
