Thank you!

Authentic & Love that style!
 

Both earrings and necklace are authentic Mikimoto, but not thier top line. Sea Magic is part of the Blue Lagoon division of Mikimoto (hence the BL stamp on the fish hook). Much more affordable than the Mikimoto main line (top 5% of cultured pearls), but still very good quality (top 10% of cultured pearls). Seller's prices are are about the same as retail from Jared's or Kay. Seller seems to have a good reputation. hopefully the seller will relist and come down on price a bit!
 
Hello everyone! Recently got this necklace off ebay and then found out after the fact about all the replicas floating around on ebay, yikes! I also did a google search and found like 4 different sites selling relplicas and even including Tiffany packaging! I can't believe that is allowed at all!

Kinda not enough pictures I don't think. But what do you guys think of this Tiffany J necklace? And no recent feedback...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=230338625826

It looks good. Shape is right, deep hallmarks near the clasp, and color (not too shiny or white). Pouch is right, and these are not really faked all that much (not that I have seen yet)- they just aren't as popular as the 1837 or RTT lines, and some other Peretti items. I can't speak to lack of feedback- seems like someone who drops an item here or there. Almost safer that way, sometimes!
 
Does anyone know anything on Juicy bags? Just want to make sure this one is real because the seller had several listed and I thought I saw plastic wrapping on one of the bags which is not good i thought???? Here is the link....http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=150339352839 please let me know if this is real or not thanks!

If it is a recent bag, there should be a number sticker on the inside of the pink "Juicy Couture" tag pictured. Ask the seller to turn it inside out and take a picture for you.

There are a ton of fakes (especially RTT), but yours is authentic. Counterfeits are not allowed on ebay, but unless it is reported (if people know they are looking at a fake) they sometimes slip through. Ebay has really clamped down, and Tiffany has VERO reps that are supposed to look at listings before they appear for everyone else to see, but I don't think they police perfectly. I always report when I see a fake, because I can't stand the thought of someone paying good money for what they think is Tiffany. But you can breath easy, yours is authentic.

ok thanks so much! I just wanted to be sure I also took it to a jewler but it was not a Tiffany store because we don't have one where I live. It was so weird because it came in a small box that looked shiny vs. matte and the ribbon was robin egg blue not the usual white but it did come in the suede pouch??? Can you tell me anything about the blue ribbon? That threw me off and the item is fairly new but the lady was nice and said it was purchased in the houston store but sometimes you can't be sure ya know. Anyway I also bought a elsa peretti open heart ring from a seller with not so perfect feedback and the ring is in great shape and is stamped and signed and feels heavy too. Is there a problem with the peretti line on ebay? If you want I can post pics for you to look at but I can tell you it came in the pouch that folds over and snaps and the material and stiching are that of an authentic pouch as far as the edges and the snap has imprinted echt. I just can't fathom that even the Tiffany packaging is being used for fakes!!! I want a bracelet but now I'm scared, lol...

Ok I will ask her. She shows the tag in a pic but not the serial number. If it has the sticker then it is authentic right? I could just ask her if it has the sticker...
