Please take this up with the seller. We have a rule about authenticating prior to purchase. Thank you.

I'm pretty new to the world of Hermes scarf....or I should say, the slippery slope of Hermes Scarf? :smile:

I bought one from Hermes website, don't want to get it from anywhere else since I'm so new. Got it and love it!

I then did a lot of research about how to buy Hermes scarf from Ebay and other online resellers, read a lot here in a few weeks' time(thanks to those who share great info). After that I bought 2 more from Ebay. Both arrived so nicely and both felt exactly same as the one I bought from Hermes web. One from a well-known seller here, one from someone who doesn't want the scarf as a gift. Both seem pretty authentic to me and I was very happy.

One day I saw another design(Feria de Sevilla) I really like on the Bbay and found that this seller also has a website. This is a very reputable seller, discussed and referenced in the Seller/Retailer thread many times and authenticated many times in the Hermes scarf authentication thread. Very highly regarded seller. I ended up buying that scarf from his/her facebook store instead of Ebay to save on tax.

Today I got the item. It looks and feels new and never worn as described. Item matches picture perfectly. BUT, the scarf just feels different from all other 3 I have. I don't know how to describe it. It doesn't seem to have the type of sheen other 3 has but it might be due to color since this one has a lot of black. It doesn't drape as well, although the weight is about the same (this one is 69G as compared to the other three at 70G). The fabric surface is all new but feels more coarse and stiff than the other 3 I have. It just feels quite different by touch.

I laid this one against one of the others on bed and this one is longer on one edge by a little, while the other 3 matches almost perfectly.

Another issue I noticed is that the part of the tag is sewed in and can't see the Y in string "DRY Clean Only".

Something just doesn't feel right. Could I possibly get a fake? :sick::-s

I really had no such doubt when I made the purchase as this is a well known seller. But with the item in my hands, I couldn't help but feeling this way.

Should I contact the seller and bring up my doubts and just ask frankly? Could it possibly be a quality control issue at Hermes or at this seller? Or what I described are pretty normal?

Any advice for my situation would be great appreciated!
 
I think this is safe.
