Rotella T6 from Amazon
In the past I have bought 1 gal and 5 gallon jugs of Rotella T6 from Amazon. This time I bought two 2.5 gallon jugs. They came in cardboard boxes with no markings of any kind. The jugs were in plastic bags. On both jugs the seal was partially open- crinkled up seal. Since one was spilled Amazon is sending a replacement. I want to see if the seal looks like it was messed with as well.
Wondering if this is real Rotella? It came from Amazon not a third party

My only experience with the 2.5 gallon size was from Tractor supply, in store. I had to pick through a few because some were leaking. At the time the 2.5g size used a seal, the seal was loose or lifted a little on the ones leaking in store. Never experienced that with the gallon size from anywhere I've purchased, whether online or in store, but they also have a different cap and seal arrangement.

Biggest I've ever purchased was the '5 quart' jugs, which would be a gallon and a quarter. Some places carry the gallons, others the gallon and a quarter. Much bigger than that, though, and they get to be tough to manhandle and the chance for spillage goes up.
I've never seen shell rotella in a 5qt jug.
To the OP, I know amazon sells a lot of stuff that they buy in bulk from china/india and package themselves for resale in unmarked packaging, but have never seen real rotella oil come in anything but actual shell labeled jugs and boxes, I sure would be wary of that oil they sent you.

This is why I try to order things from anywhere but Amazon… and if I want something of value and I want to know it’s authentic, I won’t order it from Amazon. There are exceptions, like if the item I am ordering is listed to ship from the actual company.
But if it isn’t in an actual Rotella T6 jug, I wouldn’t use it. Send it back.

If you buy the 3 one gallon case that Acdii linked above, it comes in a sealed box from Rotella. It may ship from an Amazon warehouse, but it's factory sealed. The gallon jugs also have the tinfoil type seal under the sealed cap. So would be pretty difficult to pull off a switch without noticing.
