I've managed to find the seller's name; As it was purchased on ebay more than 3 months ago, the links no longer work ; the seller's names are :
9718 : linda*s***stuff
9997 : 4recyclefashion
9136 : mummymonkeyllc

All three are genuine.

When buying from the first seller, "linda*s***stuff", try to authenticate whenever possible before buying. She sells in volume and with her assistants often doing the buying and selling, errors have sometimes been made by them in authenticating items they buy to re-sell and fakes have slipped through and been sold to trusting buyers. When sellers concentrate on volume instead of accuracy, mistakes are probably going to happen.

The third seller, "mummymonkeyllc", allowed several fakes to slip through about 4 years ago but seems to have learned from her mistakes since then.

If these are potential or recent purchases we need the listing URLs and sellers' names.

One of the listings (from 4recyclefashion is still showing. If you go to the completed/sold listings, you can pull it up.)

Another issue with "linda*s***stuff" is that for at least some of her listings, she uses Real Authentication for verification of authenticity and they may very well be skilled in other brands, they've made mistakes on very obvious fakes.

Many of the "authenticated" listings don't even have enough pictures to assess them so how Real Authentication could have deemed them as genuine is beyond me!

Just one example of a blatant error although I have many in my files:
