Same w/ the brown one!

This blue one along w/ others are fine, but check out the white and brown.

Yes!

But you can clearly see the difference between the hardware on the white/truffle vs the blue!

that's incredible! how is it possible? does anyone wrote to RN to ask for it?

Someone ought to email them and just ask for more photos of one of the fakey looking ones...don't tip them off that you are wondering about authenticity!!

I don't think there's need for GH experts. A square bale is a square bale!

I've just checked my Aqua GH, bought from LVR and the bales should certainly not look like those shown on the white and brown bags. I agree with adoptastray - bales on 'authentic' bags should not look square.

The authentic GH bags still have round bales so thank goodness we still have that to help us authenticate bags. Though some sellers are getting sneaky enough to include a photo with round bales that they still from photos of authentic bags...yikes.
