Your observations seem to be based on a hunch only. Its strange that you seem very sure without having actually seen/used the product for yourself. I find it extremely difficult to believe that if the company changed its bottle in 2011, why wouldn't they change the picture on almost all their websites and why wouldn't other online retailers (and I have seen many website that display the same bottle). This is 3M we are talking about, not a small company. None of the famous websites display the bottle you are showing (only a couple i could find). Adding more to the authenticity of this product being original, these came in the original 3M box as follows (the from address is of 3M US and to address is of 3M dubai):
Regarding the stuff being expired, none of the waxes come with a manufacture date including products from other companies like Meguiars/Mothers and the lot. Atleast I haven't seen one. So, the claim of it being expired would hold true for every other seller on pakwheels selling similar stuff with expired stuff in it and also with almost every local shop in Pakistan selling these and other US based products. You got to trust somebody somewhere, I did and I am satisfied. Your hunch will only put people off from proceeding with purchasing this. This was my first business transaction on Pakwheels and I found to be very professionally handled.
and Allah knows the best.
