One comment, which has almost 800 likes, warned shoppers against assuming that a store bearing Apple’s name on Shopee was operated by Apple. “Fun fact the apple store in shopee is NOT the actual apple store,” the commenter wrote.

Another advised shoppers check Apple’s website for its list of authorised resellers to err on the side of caution.

One sure tell-tale sign is when a seller not only puts up a picture of an official authentic listing of a store but also those of other stores as well

I ever buy a techno gas hob from a Shoppee mall shop shown as techno official store. But the invoice that came with delivery shows a unknown electrical appliance company name. Think Shoppee does not bother what sellers put as name. They should control naming of official stores. Like my case, it is at most just a authorized seller, not official store.

I dunno but I guess certain stores can also be the offical resller/distributor for a certain brand... correct me if I'm wrong... is the company name Asia Excel or Everjoint?

No. Not these name.

But official reseller or authorized distributor should state accordingly. Official store to me is manufacturing or main distributor.
