Hello, please authenticate this mousseline.

Item: Hermes `BOLDUC` (mousseline) Shawl (140cm x 140cm)

Listing number: 310885373872

Seller: jb8506

Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hermes-BOLD...73872?pt=US_Scarves_Wraps&hash=item48623657b0


Comments: Seller previously listed this same scarf back in January. I hesitated on that one due to a questionable spot in one of the photos, and then it sold. This listing used the exact same pictures, so I wrote to the seller to ask them about the photos and the spot. The seller apologized and said those pictures were used by mistake, and has since uploaded new pictures. I searched tPF and saw a few questionable reviews on this seller, however I have been searching for this scarf for a long time and would like to purchase if indeed authentic. As you can see, it is in my signature :) Thanks!
 
need better pics of this, at least copyright and signature
Hi Dame d Coeur. Thank you for your response. I had ask the seller for more photos and this was their response...

"This vintage scarf does not in fact have any other fabric tags besides the one that is pictured. It was purchased originally for an editorial photo shoot from Resurrection Vintage in NYC and is absolutely guaranteed to be authentic, but I completely understand a buyers wish for the actual designer fabric label.
In my experience with vintage Hermes items, the actual designer fabric label is not always present, but the numerous qualities surrounding authenticity are pretty easy to spot so I've posted as many photos as possible to demonstrate these."

What would be your opinion; because, it is very much valued?

Thank you.

I've been watching this scarf too, but have to say, that response seems evasive. The signature and copyright would not be on the care tag, and the seller sounds like s(he) knows enough to know that . . .

I thought the same re: Seller's response, but I looked at the listing again - copyright and sig photos are now posted there.
 
Thank you both, Luvbolide and Portoar, for your feedback. I really appreciate it.

Agreed, it appears that the seller did add more photos.
