I sometimes post on TTTC. Not actively pursuing, or plan to pursue treatment at this time. I keep tests on hand, because my cycle can vary, and I need to get off a medication, should I miraculously get pregnant.
That said, has anybody bought Wondfo's lately? If so, have you had any issues? I bought a batch mid March, and didn't think anything of them having a green handle vs. a pink handle, as it'd been awhile, since I bought a pack and thought they may have changed. I've noticed that there is a lot of dye pooled at the dip part of the strip, and it doesn't always go all the way away, and leaves a small line underneath. I know it's a not a BFP, I've just noticed it more.
In looking up some stuff for the lot, Lot: W00140336-1 (Exp: 9/3/16) it seems like some people are saying that lot is a bad batch/counterfeit. People on the internet (not me) were saying they got lots of evaps and false negatives and positives.
Anyway, if you've bought tests lately, have you had any issues?
My most recent batch (ordered about three weeks ago) has blue handles and gave me no evap lines whatsoever.
Thanks. I'm not going to worry about it, it was just interesting to see that some were having issues and saying that if tests weren't bought from certain sellers, they couldn't be guaranteed to be actual Wondfo tests.
I had some really faint positives a few months ago, and a few people on MMM mentioned stuff about a bad batch. Turns out my situation was veeery slowly rising betas that turned into a miscarriage, so I guess the faint positives made sense in hindsight. FWIW mine had green handles. I bought more recently but haven't opened any of the HPTs yet, just the OPKs.

On one of the Amazo.n reviews, a customer said they spoke with a Wond.fo representative and they said the following are approved distributors (Random punctuation is mine). Not say all others are counterfeit, but these are one's they say are legit distributors.
AccuCar.e All About Bide.t Inc. Earth's Magi.c Inc. EZ @ HOM.E Fairview Mar.t Formosa Enterpri.ses, LLC USHealth Tes.ts iFas.t Jooah Reye.s Lia Poe.sy LLC MetaReta.il TEST `A-SUR.E
damn. I've ordered 3 times and only the first order was from someone on that list above.
If you haven't noticed an issue, you're probably fine. They're not saying all others are counterfeit/bad, but that if you buy them from the above sellers you should be good.
I hesitated even creating the post, as I didn't want to cause panic/confusion. You can always google the lot and expiration date to see if there are any issues. Il
I looked at the last batch I bought in 2013, and sure enough they were from one of the vendors listed. Loooking at the latest batch, the front just says HCG in the little bubbly where Wond.fo normally is.
