Dear Terite, you have advised that this one is fake
http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5574635916&toolid=10001&campid=5335828332&customid=UKlink&mpre=http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/112156698907?euid=51b5ba2e486748d797f76ffe27e62a02&bu=43298782231&cp=1&sojTags=bu=bu
And I would like to report it. I trust your opinion 100 percent and your word is enough for me, but in the eBay field I need to give them the reason. Please tell me how did you conclude it's fake and I write it down for them. Thank you very much x
Ebay wants:
Counterfeit and Infringement
Counterfeit
Fake scarf
(Label looks wrong - some packaging is staged and fake)
 
I've got a scarf question too. I'm trying to hone my skills picking out authentic tags, especially on scarves. I think the scarf from the post above mine is an authentic vintage scarf judging from the tags alone but I'm not an expert which is why I'm here.

If I were to judge the scarves in my photo, I'd say the top one is fake because the legs of the R's are too straight. I'd say the bottom one is an authentic vintage scarf but I'm a little usure since the R and the B are connected, which I haven't seen before. What's your take?

I like to see the entire scarf, not just the label.

The top label does not look right - and you are right - the letters do look a bit too rigid.

The second label - not certain - I would like to see the scarf as the vintage Burberrys - with an s have been faked quite well, so you need to see the scarf.

Both scarves - the fringe looks wrong.

Hi! Any help authenticating this Burberry bag would be greatly appreciated! I've already purchased it on Ebay and believed it was a Prorsum Earlsburn bag, but I have questions now that I have it in my possession. To note, the seller said "her daughter purchased it for her while vacationing in Europe" when I asked.

My reasons to doubt authenticity:
1) The authenticity card the seller left in the bag is for a Burberry London leather bag, the outside plaque says Burberry Prorsum, and the inside says "Burberry Established 1856".
And compared to online photos of Earlsburn bags:
2) The zipper on the inside pocket looks different.
3) No photos exist of this bag in all suede, just leather and suede compliments.
4) The handles seem to be missing a small rivet (?, I don't know what to call it).
5) The front cinch/pull (?) looks different.
6) The leather drawstring is not cord, it's stitched.
7) There is no tag /serial number of any sort inside the bag.
And 8) There are no feet on the bottom of the bag.

Though I looked at other site photos, I primarily referenced this bag:

Either way, the bag is beautiful, and I sure hope it's authentic!

Thank you for reading my post! :smile:

I don't have a Photobucket account and couldn't figure out how to get a URL for my images to use the paperclip button. I but them in a box.com folder here:
