I can't find any other UK sellers of V6's apart from amazon. And the ones on amazon are sold by 'extended deals' and fulfilled by amazon. As they are fulfilled by amazon does that mean they can't be fake? Is it a risk to get them? Thanks in advance for the help

if people are faking V6s they are massive idiots, their profit margin would be so slim that it wouldnt even be worth it.

I can't help but be bothered by this statement. Are you some sort of counterfitting expert who can attest to profit margins made on counterfit products? I am not, so I'd rather not make such wide-ranging statements.
 
I can, however, assume that since counterfit products exist, there IS a profit margin to be had from them. I'd imagine its good, too... because they often counterfit popular items with low quality (read=cheap) materials and have very little in terms of overhead (little to no R&D, marketing, hiring of low-pay employees in 3rd world countries, no other business-related expenses) costs and thus, reap high profits. I'd wager to say said counterfitters are quite wealthy.
 
Or... they could be massive idiots, as you so astutely and eloquently put it.
