In this 7 days, I wrote lot of time to vogueland.com, saying my situation and some others bag I wolud like to exchange with.
But after the first mail, nothing more..
They didn't answer me anymore until the 7 day policy passed by..
Now I'm searching for all fashion blogs, to tell my story and NOT TO BUY ANY BAG ON WWW.VOGUELANDE.COM !!

I had the same problem
its a site just like voguelande i don't really remember it and I don't want too
I was surprised receiving a bag from Hongkong i spent 800$ on a FAKE bag
when i first carried the bag the tassel fell down

ow ya and it was from the new Gucci collection that have been added to classics ones anyways so when i went to Gucci store i was surprised that the bag in Gucci is totally different!!

I was so so so shocked and i went back to my house directly and e-mailed the website and told them i need my money back cause its a fake one! and they sent me another one looool since the tassel have fell down!!
+ this guy started insulting me cuz i was telling him i'll keep praying day and night that your shop burns and someone steals your money
he even told me "YOU MOUTH OF TOILET I WONT REPLY BACK ON YOUR E-MAILS"
and i never gotmy money back .. ill keep praying that he dies + his shop burns and some1 steals his money

Ladies.. if you paid with a credit card, call your credit card company and demand that they file a chargeback for FRAUD.

I am posting a concern that seems to fit in this discussion board regarding fakes on ebay. I purchased a blue leather Guccissima Hobo bag the other day and new in the back of my head I would regret the purchase, the seller stated "authenticity", however words can be misleading, maybe she meant "authentic" as in this bag is leather. Anyway, I aksed where she purchased it from, she repsonded with Balagio in Las Vegas. I figured, well maybe this is just used and she is selling it for a good price? But, after searching for a blue style on google, I am not sure if this color in the guccissima ever existed? The number on the back of the tag reads- 14900159847, the font is blurry so I cannot tell if it is real?
Is there a website or any other way that confirms the authenticity? I spent enough money to put in a complaint if she mislead me. Help?

Yes... post here Authenticate This Gucci

If it was an auction/listing on the internet, post the link. If you already have the bag, ALSO take photos and post the photos.

To authenticate purses we need the following photos,

1) photos of the bag (yes many times people just post a photo of the tag, not enough!)
2) close ups of the serial tag: front showing the "Gucci made in italy" stamping and the back showing the serial number
3) may also need close ups of the hardware markings

If looking at a wallet, please make sure you include:

1) close up of the serial number located underneath the credit card slots
2) "Gucci made in italy" stamping in the bottom corner

When taking close up photos please or ask sellers to:

1) NOT use flash
2) NOT use zoom
3) do use macro mode that is usually indicated by a flower on most digital cameras
4) do take photo in lots of light (no flash though), by a window is good
5) use a steady hand

Addy, thank you this is good information to know. I bought a fake Fendi some years ago on Ebay, and when I went back to contact the seller they had closed their account. So, I guess I was left holding the bag, you could say......

hi all, I just bought a bag from ebay, And it turned out to be a fake Miu miu bag. I used paypal to pay for the item. Was wondering how long does paypal take to refund the money?

cindylu · May 25th, 2009, 07:46 AM

eBay now has a new policy " If you buy a bag and it turns out to be a fake you can destroy the bag and also get your money back. I am so happy for this rule. The bad sellers make it hard for the rest of us.
Also there are a couple of neighborhoods on eBay that will help you. Cashin carry and designer purse can help with COACH and there are others that will help as well. The people who sell the fakes need to be booted out!

I think this seller is a scammer.
