Default Please look at this fake crocodile kelly.YIKES!

Please look at this fake crocodile kelly bag.
YIKES!
I just received this bag from a person who wanted me to authenticate it. It is really a great fake. I am posting it for everyone here to see how well they can pull off these fakes!
The smell was a dead givaway! I guess the fake orange box was the 1st givaway but then after I opened the box I knew it was fake. I saw an AUTHENTIC sleeper and then the fake bag.
Have a look.

The smell is the sure fire way to tell a fake Hermes bag from the real one. It sounds a little weird but the fake manufacturers use some type of cheap leather or pleather (plastic/leather) material and it really smells BAD!

Unfortunately, our computers can't smell these bags when we are looking at eBay auctions!

the scales on the straps are too big and the skin is not consistant.
