I purchased one a couple of weeks ago from myepack & for the life of me I cannot find one on either mini or normal protank II boxes, there is one of them holographic type stickers you had to break to open them though
EDIT just checked
The aspire nautilus I purchased at the same time does have a scratch & check panel on back of box

I can't find my mini boxes but I do have the Protank3 and areotank boxes. The code is on side of the internal box on both.

Seconds? been having similar discussion with mrsmac about the group buy portank 3,s and as i have one from uk and one from focal you can defo see differences in the quality of finish and sizes so they ether good copies or seconds im my opinion but they do work the same so its not all bad lol

I think some of the early Protank2 minis had the code on a card that came inside the box.

I think some of the early Protank2 minis had the code on a card that came inside the box. Mine definitely had a code, and my memory somewhere deep inside told me it was like a scratch panel that I did scratch to investigate but I never checked it up. This was what I told rednutt to look for , but then wondered if I had dreamt the whole thing as she couldn't find it. Now I am wondering why some do not have the code. Is it a new thing? Or are they seconds? I believe they are genuine, but perhaps they just didn't make the grade. I have one in my basket at a couple of places, but now I am seriously wondering.
