Oh...just wanted to share the fact that I got egged while walking home tonight. The egg got all over my LV bag :( Needless to say, I'm not having a very good day. Is it safe to send a bag for dry clean?

-Aidi

Looks good to me too

You got egged? This is crazy - are you okay?

In my humble opinion I believe this seller is selling mirror image fakes.

1.) Does not show the interior of the bag on any of their auctions.
2.) Has multiple of the same style (seven to be exact).
3.) All bags come without tags and without a dust bag
4.) Possibility that the seller also sells on ioffer
5.) Bought from a "sample sale". I find it very unlikely that Burberry would have 7 of these bags sitting in their back room.
6.) All the buyers that have left positive feedback have < 100 feedback and appear to be inexperience buyers that would not know a fake from an authentic bag-esp if it is a mirror image. Not right away anyway, most likely over time they will begin to doubt the authenticity, but by then it will be too late to file a claim.
Just my opinion

Hello -
I am assuming that you are talking about my purchase of the Brown Haymarket Hobo bag - dang it.

The more opinions I am getting, the more freaked out I am getting!!! I guess there's nothing to do now but wait until the bag comes - and then what??? What if it's a REALLY good fake??? How am I going to know??? I read somewhere that Burberry retailers refuse to authenticate - and besides, there is not Burberry boutique where I live!!!

Addy - I am in panic mode now. What do you suggest that I do? (If you need a reference, please check back to post #2421) I would really, really like your opinion!

There is nothing you can do until the bag arrives - so hang in there and post good detailed pics when it arrives, okay?

My advice is to pay what you can afford after searching closed auctions for end prices
Hi Addy,

Sorry for not observing the rule. I will wait for Terite to comment on the serial tag. Thanks for your advice again.

By the way, the number doesn't read CIMG9128. I have mistaken the photo file name as the serial number.

Unfortunately I bought the bag this time but Terite seems to think it looks OK. I will post some photos when it arrives.
