Almost every one of those FAKE Alex bags on ebay has sold for $350 to over $600!!!! Don't these people know these are fake? I tried to get some close up pics of the fake Alex to add to my ebay review of Choo bags and none of them was good enough...damn..
HOW TO REPORT ALL THESE FAKE BAGS ON EBAY?I really pity these people paying so much money to get a FAKE bag.

Number 2 looks good

You ca go to the bottom of the listing and follow the link, but I have found it is a waste of time. I was spending a lot of time reporting very obvious fakes and the listings never came down and it just became a waste of time

I was reporting them as well. There are some reaaaallly bad fake Alex bags on there now, I just reported several...but Robynbenz is right, Ebay doesn't remove them very often.

Real?

The easiest way to report bags...

is go to google.com

and type in "ebay counterfeit report" and then click the first link.. then, report counterfeit link, then just add the item #s

EDIT:

Here:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/...unterfeit.html

^go here to report counterfeit!

I'm just sick...I just saw two of these fake Alex bags go for over $700. on ebay! I updated my guide to warn buyers that almost all the Alex bags are fake. There is a new seller that makes the listing look like a storefront and people are being sucked in.

When the Alex first came out it was being touted as the next "IT" bag, and so it stands to reason that it would be immediately knocked off since the Ramona was so huge.

But when I saw the glut of fake Alex's on Ebay almost at the same time the real thing was made available, I totally lost interest in the bag. At least in leather.

I think the fake bag is more out there than the real thing! Not in a million years should anyone trust an Alex on eBay to be the real deal without first posting it here!

Sad, but true. I bet the same thing will happen with the Saba.
