Looks like all the bags that seller has sold are also sold on a website that sells replicas. I'm guessing this is the bag you bought- http://www.mypurseworld.com/shop/pro...roducts_id=497

I hope you can get your money back. Looks like that seller has fooled everyone they've sold too so far.



cherll bought a carly off eBay that looked really good but it turns out it's a fake! check out the above link to the best(as in, they look very real) counterfeit bag site i've seen. it's just so wrong!!
i'm thinking a lot of the ones for so low on eBay right now are probably very good fakes!

and it is so sad because the seller had a gold carly listed at the same price as mine and was gone shortly after i BIN. this was one of the best faked and if i wasn't good with coach, i would have never known...

well, they stated that they bought is from a designer retailer but only knew what the retailer said, agreed to do a refund so i sent the bag back yesterday. how they act will also have an impact on their FB and i let them know that. they currently have 100% and already left me FB so no worries there..

Thanks, but 50%? That must be a heavy workload!

Yeah I'm noticing some REALLY scary good fakes of Carly's on eBay lately. I'm so glad the Chambray I bought was legit. It's so hard to tell these days!

I'm seeing the same thing, and I just saw some really good fakes of the LV Neverfull in the LV forum. What's really scary about this is that--unless you know your brand inside and out--we're going to be at risk of ending up with fakes. Also, those of us who sell our preloved bags on eBay are going to have a tougher time selling our bags because other people are going to worry about them being fake.

Very very frustrating!

Yeah It annoys the crap out of me seeing these good fakes getting high bids. I just want to shake the buyers frantically and tell them it's not real!!!!! <=( I agree too, I have SUCH a hard time selling on eBay because of this!

I'm interested on what tipped you off that they were fake? I usually browse eBay for fakes so I can report them. I love learning more and more aobut the designs so it makes it easier, but you never know!

I have seen a lot of Carly's on eBay that are fake. There are even a few with the Legacy lining LOL!!! People need to get real and do their homework before they list these bags!

$180.00 for a replica that's crazy.

Well in my case it was my first time I listed a bag that I paid for 250.00 at the outlets and I put it at 15.00 starting price but I only have 1 bet and its at fifteen another example is a another one I place for 10.00 I paid 150.00 for it and offers are not good I guess since it was my first time I wanted to get some credibility and I placed them cheap.
