Yeti Rambler 30 fake or not?

Just received my Yeti Rambler 30oz tumbler today from Amazon. Bought directly from Amazon, the first listed, Prime, Amazon Choice option for the Yeti Rambler with the magnetic slider. Everything seemed good with my beer inside until I went to register the warranty on my mug. Got a “CODE 41163284 WAS NOT FOUND.” message. I also noticed later on in the day when I put beverages with ice in it, the top 3rd of the tumbler gets ice cold as well. Pretty sure I gotta fake one. Anyone else had experiences with these? My old RTIC outperforms that sucker anyday.

    Register your cups? None of mine are registered and Yeti never asked me too.  Is this a new policy?

    Looks legit.  I bought that new lid for the 20oz size.  Works great and is quieter in the car.  (Normal lid rattles sometimes)

    I bought one in Florida this winter and I could not register the product as a Canadian.....go figure.

    Was the lid and cup stamped or embossed "Yeti"? If so, your dispute may be with Amazon.

    The reviews and Q/A have several people reporting they aren't real ones. Go to DICKS and check them out there for a real comparison. Just because it's Prime or AMZ Choice, doesn't mean it's authentic. Any seller can sell via prime, and send their counterfeits to Amazon to fulfill.

    I bought my yeti from the yeti website and it gets cold at the top as well. Not ice cold but colder than the bottom. There is less insulation there so that makes sense. I think you got a legit one. I just think yeti has been slacking in the QC lately. They got lazy and now others are better and cheaper too.
