You have already been suspended once for trying to sell your fake merchandise.

Just curious how Barneys authenticates receipts when they will not even authenticate bags? And they did all of this over the phone? IMO that is not possible. You already tried to take me, you are in the wrong place to try and get another! Stop peddling your fake sh** here!

I think you should verify his information with Barney's directly.

Jill (other mods), please feel free to delete my previous post where I became involved in the drama. He almost got me with a fake, so I felt a bit dramatic in the moment. Isn't there a thread somewhere on here about that person?

What does he do for them??? Is it within the rules and guides of his job to purchase a bag with his discount and sell at a profit? (That is what he claims to do.)

Let us all hope that RING does not fall for his trick. She bit his bait a few posts back.

I haven't been following this. . . I have no idea what's going on. I was just posting from my POV.

Ringbearer-

There is an eBay subforum here. It is a good idea to read through some of the threads or do a search. There is a wealth of information there. http://forum.purseblog.com/ebay-forum/

On a quick note-When buying online never do a money order, check, bank transfer or Western Union. The only way you can be remotely protected is with Paypal, Google Checkout, ect and to pay with a credit card (not debit). That way, if you fail to meet guidlines for protection you can file a chargeback.

Authentic Goyard online is harder to find that fake because of limited availability of locations that sell them. The sellers that scam change their id's often. This thread has a summary of a scam on the first page but we know that these id's are no longer in use Keeping Ebay Goyard scammer on topic...

Remember that anyone can find photos of anything and post them for sale as "Authentic". Just because a seller makes a promise doesn't mean that they will follow through. You need to protect yourself. Best advice is to come to TPF anytime you want an honest opinion.

My honest opinion is steer clear of that Goyard.

Sometimes what is seen as drama, is someone calling out a potential scammer.......too many of them have been using the PF as a way to get their victims....we have seen it over and over.....so, sometimes its good to "expose" those that have that intention....when its done privately, members aren't warned, so in some cases its good to leave them posted......JMHO

In my opinion, the pics are not close enough or clear enough. The seller is not focusing in on the important details (snap, logo, texture...etc)
But what really concerns me is that this is an expensive item to buy from a brand new seller. I personally would not do that unless there was the option of local pickup and you have educated yourself enough to authenticate in person. Especially since it is sold as is and no returns. Lastly, the shipping is way too high.
Just my opinion!

Need pics of the back of the snap on the pochette, a close and clear pic of the painted Logo on the canvas, a closeup photo of where the handle is attached to the bag on the inside.

Glad you avoided the Orange bag. The listing was pulled for what I suspect is possible fraud.
