My boyfriend got me a deathadder essential from CEX for £30 and he feels something weird about it since he has one. We tried registering it on the website, synapse, reddit, everything and still nothing. I cant send images bc its over 5mb 🙄 but im still really upset that CEX, a very well known second hand shop is selling counterfeit items and that they haven't even checked. It says in the model that it was made in 2025?

Hi cariadsian,

Where did you purchase your device? Please send me a PM with the device serial number and the name of the store so I can verify the information.

To ensure authenticity and prevent similar issues in the future, we recommend buying Razer products from   authorized Razer resellers. This ensures you receive a genuine device. Be aware that products from non-authorized dealers may be used, counterfeit, re-boxed, defective, or gray market goods. Take care for now!
