If yiu search Google for "fakes sold by bagsrus.ph?"
https://www.google.com/search?q=fak...KHeRlBxIQrQIIMygCMAA&biw=861&bih=465&dpr=1.25
or search THIS site for the same name, and if they;re the same seller as "bagsrus" on Facebook, you'll find that their "designer" bags are usually identified as fakes, including Givenchy, Prada, Michael Kors, Longchamp. Here's just one example:
https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/authenticate-this-prada.899598/page-222#post-30374630

Unfortunately the name "bagsrus" is used by many different sellers. But I see one problem with the bag in the pictures you posted. The Made in tag says it was made in Vietnam, but my records show that the plant code 21 in the serial number belongs to a Philippines plant (I'm trying to find just ONE listing that might indicate that the 21 plant code was reassigned to a Vietnamese plant but so far haven't been able to). Since the P.I. have a huge problem with fakes and are a major source of counterfeits, I would NOT buy from BAGSRUS.PH

More opinions are welcome.

I'll second Hyacinth's opinions, both of the bags and the seller.

However I'll take my advice a step further, something I've said in the past but is worth repeating.

While I understand and appreciate the desire to support commerce in one's own country and while I'm sure there are some honest sellers in the Philippines, the fakes I've seen coming from sellers in the PI are just too close. So for highly faked brands of handbags, I recommend buying from sellers in outside the Philippines.

You want to give rosedroppetal the opportunity to resolve your complaint first, so before opening a dispute, contact the seller, let her know that the bag is fake and that you want to return it. But since it's counterfeit and should never have been relisted, you want her to send you a prepaid shipping label PLUS she'll need to pay the full price including the $14 shipping charge.

If she doesn't agree, open a dispute as "SNAD" and choose that it's not authentic as the reason.

Seller can either agree to the return for FULL refund or you can escalate for ebay to decide the case. Ebay will require her to make you whole.

I have several comments.
  • Receipts don't prove anything since they can be faked or genuine receipts can be used to "prove" authenticity of a fake
  • Pictures in the listing aren't adequate for us to evaluate
  • Why does listing show the item location as Texas yet the seller is in Canada?
  • Shipping is shown as Canada post, not available for an item that would be in Texas
  • Seller has no history of selling highly faked items so with the other questionable issues, I'm not comfortable recommending the seller EVEN IF the listing had enough of the right pictures.
(For required pictures, see the first post on page 1 of the thread.)

Yeah I asked about the two locations, she says she has two warehouses, one in Texas, one in Montreal . Doesn't explain the Canada Post issue though . Thanks for the advice!
