I bought a Dyson hair dryer recently from Costco when it was on sale from my local Costco. Informed by Costco employees that they locked up the dryer in the supply room due to stealing/people opened boxes. Got it anyway. I went home open it up (seals still intact), plug it in, didn't work. I put the serial # on Dyson website and it showed it was the 1st generation (Unsure what is the current gen right now). Called Dyson support and was directed to exchange at Costco for faulty product.

I went to a different Costco 15' away from my local one to see if they have the "lock up" issue there. Turned out there was a whole pallet of Dyson hair dryer. This time it worked! I entered the serial # again on Dyson and it showed a different model (Maybe the newest generation?). I deep dived in the r/dyson and was surprised my first one might be a counterfeit, which is unbelievable because I got it from Costco, not some random sellers. Here are some differences between the faulty one and the new one I got:

Anyone bought a Dyson from Costco and had the same problem? Will cross-post this in r/dyson

Costco is $490 in warehouse.

Dyson has it (https://www.dyson.com/hair-care/hair-dryers/supersonic/prussian-blue-rich-copper) for $300 plus a couple add-ons.

Costco one looks like it has stand and a couple additional attachments but I believe the Dyson promo has them as options as well.

Not too familiar with the supersonic hair dryer but is there a difference or something I'm missing here? Normally expect Costco to be much better on pricing.

Only Q1 and wife’s asking this for Christmas, for that price it better do hair and makeup too!🥴 @OttawaBlair

Looking to buy this. I see the air wrap is $150 off right now but I’m wondering if the supersonic ever goes on sale. I’d so, does anyone know how much?

What is the in store cost?
