might as well ask where he/she got that purse on the link since I don't think fairies come in that style. LOL!

I finally gave up listing all of the fakes on this thread, however every so often I come across one that is sooooooo-out-in-left-field, that I have to post just for giggles!!

The sad thing is that this piece of crap actually has bids!!

I did get an answer but on My Ebay the response from the seller was Answer in Email. Wonder what it was they couldn't just answer right through Ebay? I can't check my personal mail until I get home but I will post the answer when I do.

Well I got home and here is the answer to the $2000 question:

The bags that I have use all original materials that are used on the actual prada bags but are assembled by a different manufacturer. Therefore, do a lot of business with the company because I have my own store and I am able to get them at discounted prices. Thanks for your question. If you have any others please let me know.

In other words, they are fakes.

OMG - $385 for that piece of crap that's suppose to be a bow satchel??? And they left good feedback!!!

Here's another (dare I say) bag (ugh) that is suppose to be a coffer and it's got $128 bid on it with a full day left on the listing!!

marose28 · Apr 14th, 2008, 10:11 PM

^ $128 for that wanna-be "coffer"?!? Geez Miu2.. you'd think these bidders would have some decency... at least get fooled by a good fake. That one is just sad! *sigh* at least they get an extra pocket out of the deal.

As I've mentioned in an earlier post, the extra pockets must the extra incentive luring buyers for the fakes.

I saw a bunch of fake coffers on a store's display window at Westside Pavilions in Los Angeles. The store is next to Bare Essentuals and they have the fake coffers in a bunch of colors.

I didn't notice them until I walked in. I was so tempted to check if they fakes had extra pockets!

I am CURIOUS

Is it OKAY for the sellers on eBay to sell their items under "GENUINE LEATHER" but as long as it doesn't say it's "AUTHENTIC" it's okay to sell the item?

There's so many replicas and fakes now a days...

And a disgrace to me and my obsession, most of the fakes are made by my kind of people

Vanillinae · Apr 15th, 2008, 05:39 AM

I think that many of those bidders must know it's a fake. I mean, a fake stam made of faux leather is around £20 in central london... an oversize real leather fake paddington is around £80 in some "boutiques". Some people buy these advertised-as-fake bags even if they're ridiculously overpriced!
I'm sure many of them know it's too cheap to be a genuine but think that maybe it's fake-ness is "un-noticeable". There's many girls in my uni who proudly say "it's a fake! but I mean, you wouldn't know right?!" while showing off their hot pink paddingtons made of faux leather, tacky gold hardware and shiny rhine-stones

Her listing got removed but i still have her private email address so I'm going to send her a reply telling her to keep that crap out of Ebay. I also looked at her profile, she still has a 100% feedback rating so she can try to dupe unsuspecting buyers again in the future. Why doesn't Ebay penalize fake sellers other than removing their listings?

This is a reputable seller and that is definitely an authentic bag. These bags are handmade, not machine made. Little imperfections will happen. I have Hermes bags with not perfect stitching in areas, but trust me, they are absolutely authentic.

No it is not ok, even if seller doesn't state authenticity.
It's still ILLEGAL to sell counterfeits.

Keep reporting these counterfeits, that's the best we can do!!
