NEWPORT council’s trading standards department received three complaints in the run up to Christmas from residents who have attempted to buy ugg Australia Boots online.
The purchases were made on three different websites claiming to sell the authentic ugg Australia boots but all of which have been found to originate in China.
The complaints have included the buyer not receiving the product they had already paid for or the goods being fakes and of poor quality when they arrived.
Trading Standards has advised Newport consumers who want to buy authentic ugg Australia boots to only do so on websites that are authorised retailers.
Genuine Ugg Australia products can only be bought at Ugg Australia flagship stores and the official website.
It has also advised people to be cautious of purchasing what are advertised as UGG Australia products on auction websites.
A Trading Standards spokesman said the cheap price often reflects the products’ poor quality but that many counterfeiters are now charging the full retail price to avoid being detected by consumers.
