Tags look wrong - stamps look wrong - is it leather? Content tags are not even accurate - receipt means nothing - doesn't look like Burberry to me.
And the seller has 10 feedback, but many of the comments are identical.
I'm glad you checked in.
Even if the seller says no returns you can ALWAYS return it on ebay.

PS: Is that receipt in dollars? But from the UK - but the banner costs more than that?
Metal stamp also wrong - and PPS: never say "sorry to bother you" ever again. I'm glad you did.
Thanks terite for all your help. The receipt is in AUD from Australia. I did think it was odd initially but I do recall a burberry sale earlier in the year so wasn’t sure... the bag feels like leather but a cheaper softer leather. Thanks so much. Will file a return. Thank you!!
 
hello ladies and gents, I have a bit of an issue with a T Burberry coat. The coat has metal buttons, different sleeves and pocket lining, the outer material is wool as I feel it. By the stitching I’d say it not right by a mile but ... I’m not an expert. The seller said it definitely autentic bought at a sale at Burberry shop but unable to provide receipt.
Any thought on it will be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance DEC4D0B1-5816-433A-9DEB-D4A6D3C77F92.jpeg348AE7FB-65F8-496F-94A3-5A2ED8008F4B.jpegD7193995-3EA9-443F-AF12-369FFD77314D.jpeg22004E7A-9968-4A9D-8613-E181DFF20248.jpeg430CA684-4A78-4A96-828C-6FB04008EEF2.jpegF0F53216-9ED6-448C-BFB6-054D4C0DFD47.jpeg0C361DB8-DD49-4E1F-930E-488A0CF0BBA2.jpeg3C4A3E8D-412C-4D53-836E-DEB4AE322232.jpeg48320D31-5CC4-46D3-BAF8-EE291EE5861E.jpeg

I’m no expert, but notice on the receipt it says 150 tax at 10%...then the total doesn’t have the tax added to it? It just says it was priced for 1500 with 150 tax, then total of 1500. Shouldn’t it read 1,650?

Good idea - thankfully you can always return on ebay - it used to be "item not as described" but I have not done that recently so things might have changed.

Hi Terite,
I have dropped them an email asking for the required images. In the meantime, need your help with another bag I found. :smile:

Item Name: Burberry Vintage Bucket Bag
Link: https://my.carousell.com/p/249089236

Would you be able to tell how old this bag is? Thank you for the help!

You should ask for photos of the stamps and content tags. This is not an old bag It is not vintage - it has that exploded nova check so it is relatively new. I guess Made in China, Also you should ask for the DIMENSIONS on that bag so you know the size.

This is the off sticking I was talking about View attachment 4538169
I can't read the content tag to see what the fabric is.
This is an authentic THOMAS Burberry item. So, not the same as Burberry - it is a different LINE. But still Burberry, and usually lovely/well made - I have a few Thomas Burberry items myself - like them a lot - I don't know where there are shops? Any one out there in the UK? Nice coat.

I think it is a total scam from start to finish - glad that it can be returned.

Good for you to keep your eyes on the receipts!! I am obsessive about receipts and AMAZED at how often they are incorrect. AND great for you to have such an eye for detail.

PS: Usually it is not AS expensive as Burberry - still expensive though.

I purchased it off of Mercari. The patterns line up as they should. But just to be sure, I want to double check before contacting the seller. It’s one of the smaller scarfs, 12” wide, maybe 48” or so long? Not sure the name of this scarf either. Seller said she did not have the receipt, but as we saw above, I know receipts can be faked, so I never go off that alone. I’m asking because of the fringe, but idk if over time if the scarves do this or not...I’m a tad worried about it, and the logo on the tag...If it turns out to be fake, I’ll contact the seller to see if she will accept a return. Here is the tag next to my authentic shoebox...image.jpg

Hello again, I was looking for a dustbag to go with my new Burberry purchase, and I was wondering if you awesome people could authenticate it? Seller says it's authentic, but the text looks kind of off to me (Rs are too squished; Bs look unequal). I'm not really sure what other photos you need for a dustbag other than the logo, but please let me know if you need more. Thanks!

I am no expert, I am also on this thread because I need another set of eyes on my recent scarf purchase. However, if it is helpful, here is a photo of one of my dustbags, but keep in mind it is a shoe dustbag. Hope this can be of some reference for you.

Thanks for the reference! Yeah, the more I look at it, the more I think I'm right about the Rs and Bs. I guess I'm just wondering if there was a different font used at a time or something.
