I read that designer bags usually do not come with plastic wrapped around the handles and/or handbag. That is usually red flag and indicator that it was imported from China or a foreign country and is a replica handbag. Is this true?

- yes, espeically buying on eBay, if you see plastic over the handles, or a price tag attached to a purse - those are huge indications that the purse is not real.

So I saw a Britt Medium bag on Bluefly this morning, very tempting with the discounted price, the additional 15% off coupon and 6% off from mrrebates. But I took a close look at the bag and compared it with the picture from NM ... I am not sure about the authenticity. Can someone with this bag comment? My question is on the white stitches around the double Gs. The stitches don't look like they follow the outline closely/evenly.

I can't zoom in on this pic fron NM's website, but you can tell the stitches are uniform around the outline of the double Gs. Is it because of the angle or the one from Bluefly is a fake or a defected bag?

FAKE - check out the auction, this SELLER is really trying to rip you off! It's got the PLASTIC cover the straps - 1st giveway

....I can't believe the nerves of these people, claiming to sell AUTHENTIC products when it doesn't take a brain child to see it is FAKE! Wow!!!!

I don't know for sure, but in my opinion it's a FAKE!

I am no expert at knowing real from fake, but I looked at the link and there were no pics of the inside tag with serial number. I know that a lot of the fake ones have a different type of tag- try to post a pic of that tag and maybe someone can help you out more!!

Thanks Ams24. I tried taking a picture of the inside tag but it is white and wouldn't photograph. The numbers on the inside are:
130736
3444

I also tried to take a pic of the fabric but that didn't come out well either.

The reason I think it might be real is that one of my bags that I purchased from Gucci directly has the same bottom code and the top code is six numbers as well. I am pretty sure that the dust bag is fake b/c it looks different than my dust bags. Would someone sell me a real bag and then give me a fake dust bag? That doesn't seem to make sense to me, so I thought the whole thing was fake. It is so hard to tell, even if you have real ones to compare it to! Thanks to anyone who can help me!

the details on the hardware are a sign of authenticity, expecially on the bamboo. The serial number is also a good number. Additionally, I see the bag still has the original price tag still attached. It seems to be that the bag was purchase at a Gucci outlet or something. I may be wrong but that's my personal opinion. maybe you should collect more that one opinion tobe safe.
good luck!
Is this an Ebay auction?...just curious.:supacool:

Jsisme2002 is a seller that we've had questions about in the past on the MJ boards and Fendi. The consensus on the Fendi board is that her fendis are fake. As for her MJs and guccis they look real. the only problem I have is that she sells multiples of the same item and it makes no sense to me. Why would someone buy the same bag 2 or 3 times. She claims that her husband is away a lot and brings her back the bags. To keep busy she sells them but really doesn't need the money. Sort of a fishy story. I will say her gucci's look good but I've seen her sell that same bag in the past.

I'm not comfortable with any of them but this is just my opinion.

The first one, when I look at their other items, they are selling a black Gucci belt bag for $199. This to the best of my knowledge, has never gone on sale in that color so their prices seem to low for them to be real.

The second one, the GG and the stitching doesn't look right and they also are selling items that are too low and are current items in the Gucci store that have not been on sale

The 3rd one, I also think the prices are too low for brand NEW and very popular Gucci Items.

Gucci is sooo easy to fake. I hardly trust any auctions. It really infuriates me because whenever I try to sell my Gucci items, it gets lost in the sea of fakes.
