    Sanrio is Japanese so I wouldn't actually be at all surprised if these were genuine. I have a Hello Kitty watch, not unlike this one that my friend bought for me, in this country, for £7. Is it totally genuine and licensed so I'd be snatching their hands off if I didn't already have one!
    Yaaay, I finally conned a man into making a honest woman of me. Even more shocking is that I can put the words "Happily" and "Married" into the same sentence and not have life insurance on my mind when I say it ;-)

    Sorry, the link for the first one does indeed say Hello Kitty STYLE!! My watch is more like this one

    http://www.priceangels.com/Cute_Hello_Kitty_Pattern_Leather_Strap_Wrist_Watch_with_Rhinestone-Pink_p14509.html

    I have also looked at the link for iPhone. Yes, it's comedic, but I don't see anything that's trying to be an iphone, it just looks like one. About 6 years ago someone gave me a MP4 player. It didn't have a name on it, it looked naff cheap and plasticky (I was then told it was actually a freebie which explained a lot). I accidentally put it through the washing machine twice, full cycle, and the darn thing still works now. My ipod nano is on it's way out but if only I could find that thing and slap it on charge I'd be away! There's a lot can be said for cheap and at these prices I don't think anyone is going to lose anything (especially with Paypal behind you!) You could spend £20 on a stack of items and keep your young kids happy for months!!!

    I didn't mean to insult the OP at all, so I hope they haven't taken it that way. For all we know, they might not have realised that the watches are not legit.

    It's like me posting a thread saying you can get Uggs for £4.99, then posting this link : http://www.shoezone.com/Womens-Boots/Black-Button-Detail-Womens-Knitted-Boots/18202

    If an item has a name/brand/picture on it, then it should be official and licensed, that's all I'm saying as I don't think it's very MSE to go fake.


    I agree with you though,at the end of the day they are fake,as you say if someone posted a deal for a site for fake UGG boots or the like people wouldn't be too impressed,this is no different and i don't think the thread should be here.

    i doubt my 6 yr old who will either break or lose a watch in a week will care or even know if it isnt official. great bargain.

    I bought pink ones of these in october for my daughter to give to friends for xmas.They took about 25 days to come which was no worry as they were for xmas.They were slightly cheaper and for fakes they are really good my daughter and her friends loved them and they are still keeping time.

    Each to their own and everything, I didnt mean to offend anyone, just provide information.

    I never have any problems finding licensed products at a sensible price, I only pay more if its a rare product.
    Debt free since July 2013! Woo hoo! The bank actually laughed when I said I have come in to cancel my overdraft.

    Thanks OP, took a chance and ordered one of these for my Hello Kitty mad daughter. It arrived today so took about a month, but my daughter is delighted with it. I am so impressed with it that think I will order a few more to put away as gifts for her friends.
