Smoothoprter said:Yes, you are absolutely entitled to your opinion. It's just that your blanket statement "she sells a lot of fakes" makes me uncomfortable. She has over 500 feedback - take it from me, that is quite an accomplishment. Do you know how many years you have to buy/sell on eBay to gain 500+ feedback and retain a 98+ rating? I definitely take things like MPRS and 500+ feedback with a 98+ rating into account when buying on eBay.
Smoothoprter said:I'm sorry I don't know who qbhype is, and I certainly did not know there was a discussion about them on this forum.
I'm not defending anyone, I'm just saying blanket statements like "they sell lots of fakes" without providing back-up makes me a little uncomfortable.
Again, as you stated it's your opinion and you are entitled to it.
Smoothoprter said:Hi Amory, truce OK?
I was hoping though that you could please enlighten me, since I'm no expert on vintage Chanel, and post a couple of Piaxi's completed Chanel auctions that you say are fake so that I can see what you are seeing? I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.
Smoothoprter said:Actually Amory, I was being very sincere. I really do want to know how you know her bags are fake.
I don't know why her bags are shiny, maybe she had them reconditioned before selling them?
amory said:Recondition old bag? Or make a new bag look like reconditioned old bag? That is one thing to look for. Remember a new bag with old series number raises suspicion.

This is as fake as they come! Chanel does not make a beige bowler.
japskivt said:Hey girlie!! I don't know if this is a fake, but I def. tried a bag on in this color at bloomingdales last week... it was "white" but it was def. beige.. looked just like that (in color)
just figured.. FYI.. as I said, this could be a fake, I just know I tried a luxe bowler in this color on last week
