Hi I just got these off of yogis closet. Is this a reputable site? I have a pair of Tom Ford Jennifers already and the etching on the lens seems heavier than on the Jennifers. So I was suspicious if they were real.

http://www.yoogiscloset.com/index.p...ew/id/15462/?gclid=COLN_N-L5rUCFe9aMgodrQYACA

A couple other things to note are that the case and cleaning cloth look weird. The sabrinas I saw before at the department store came with a hard brown velvet case and a brown cleaning cloth NOT a soft weirdly trimed soft case and yellow cloth llike the one that came from yogis.

Lastly look at these links
http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/tom-ford-sabrina-modified-cat-eye-sunglasses?ID=512739
http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tom-ford-sabrina-gradient-fade-sunglasses/3141449
http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/p/Tom-Ford-Sabrina-Sunglasses/prod61040004/

When you compare the "Tom Ford" etching on the lens of all these using the zoom vs the yoogis one, you notice that the letter "D" doesn't seem to end in the same place. The "D" ends further down and more curved on the yoogis version.

What do you think of my observations? Are they authentic or should I return them?
I found a deal on overstock for the same glasses so I guess I could get them there if they are more reputable since it's a slightly better price. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tom-Ford-Wo...81562810?pt=US_Sunglasses&hash=item460df04cba

Thanks by the way for your input. I kept staring and staring at them and putting them next to my Jennifers to look at & compare the logo fonts, etc. I need a fresh pair of eyes. thanks!

Hi,

did anyone have a say on this?
Good or no good? I simply have no idea, I read Watson_'s earlier comments about the lettering in the logo, and I checked the scarf. It looks similar, the spaces between the lettes I mean, but I just don't know McQueen scarfs so opinion from here would be good :).

Hello,

can anyone help me with this scarf.
I found it in a second hand shop, don't have any idea if it's auth or not.
Didn't pay much for it, and I just don't have the fate to believe that it's auth (if it's definitely not, I'll probably cut of the "Alexander McQueen logo" :D).

I'll appriciate all the help!

The measurements are:
width: about 97cm
lenght: about 115cm

Here's the pics:

Item name: Sunglasses Prada - Number no longer readable (mostly worn off).
Online reseller name: Personal item - not for sale at this time.
Who took the pictures: me

Hi Authenticators, I am hoping you can help me.

History of the sunglasses: I purchased several pairs of sunglasses at an
estate sale. For the price I assumed they were fake but I liked the style.

Comments: Some of the pairs look like they MIGHT be authentic. I am hoping
you might be able to help me authenticate these or let me know that they are
indeed fake. (The Gucci authenticators were able to authenticate the Gucci pair - THANK YOU! - I will post others one at a time in separate posts.)

Information:
The words on the ear pieces do NOT appear to be embossed.
The lens are plastic (not glass)
The lens have deteriorated a bit along the edge. (from the condition I think these sunglasses must either be fake or quite old or really worn a lot.)

Sorry, not good :tdown: I have difficulty authenticating a good fake from pics but this is definitely a poor copy. The skulls look terrible, the logo not at all like an original. The label is black and doesn’t look good quality and there should also be a care tag. The scarf looks very thin and couldn’t possible command a price tag of £165

Thanks so much for taking a look! :smile1: I went to Nordstroms and looked at the same pair there including the case and it looked the same... Feeling pretty confident they are authentic now! So thumps up for Amazon seller Gaffos (that is fulfilled by Amazon).

I was planning to buy Prada sunglasses from Gaffos.com. I was wondering if this is a legit web site. After seeing your photos and answers I am sure that my new sunglasses will be 100 % authentic.
