Auction is over, but I don't want you to think your post was ignored. I don't know anything about authenticating sunglasses. The problem I see with this listing is the seller's bad feedback--quite a few negatives and neutrals. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Hi boxermum,

Appreciate your feedback! Actually I'm checking for my DH, and he's been outbid eventually. But still curious whether they are authentic or not. Thanks anyway! :smile1:

The Sloane did come in Limo - I have one :graucho: But those pics look familiar - I think they've been used before on the fakes coming from iOffer. I would not bid if I were you.

UPDATE: Yup - here it is: iOffer Fakers & F*ckers

^ Sorry, I get mad & emotional defending the honor of the Sloane!:shame:

I could swear I've seen this listing before. maybe it didn't sell previously. It looks authentic and seller says she's a PF member (not an iron-clad guarantee). The bag may not be used, but the dustbag is from a couple years ago at least, so it isn't a recent purchase. I don't know when this blue was a seasonal color. maybe another member here will have a better memory.

Bluegenie you are so right. I saw these exact photos on ioffer.

i check ioffer to see what bags are getting faked so that when they appear on ebay i know it is another too good to be true deal.

There seem to be a number of awful bottega fakes on ebay at the moment... like a bronze weave bag newly listed. Depressing and horrible.

so do they use real pics and then send an awful bag or are the fakes that close and you can only tell once you get it?. wow - it's scary not to buy directly from a boutique.
I mostly know about Balenciaga, and they're not too hard to figure out, once you understand what to look at. I can't believe you can remember pictures from iOffer - you're good!
