HI. Thank you very much for your reply. I contact the seller and she insist that it is real and claim that she bought it from saks. She even open an unpaid item dispute because I refuse to pay for the item. Is there a way that I can get the bag officially authenticate to let her shut up?

thanks again for your help.:smile1:

There are several authentication services, but they will probably cost you more than the closing price of this bag. I got the impression you had this bag in your possession. Yes or no?

I'd like to see an angled close up shot of the inside logo tag, and a few close ups of the lining, but so far it looks promising.

Time For a New Sermon!

Speaking as a seller on eBay, people PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE:

******************. BID SECOND.

There has been a huge influx of authentication requests on items that have already been bid on, won or purchased, and then put on this thread before they have even been paid for, much less received. It puts the seller in a really bad financial spot.

If the seller is selling fake, I really don't care if they are losing money, but when it's a legit seller with a legit item (that perhaps doesn't have good enough photos to make a call here), they've been stuck with listing fees, final value fees and have an item on their hands that they can't relist because they are waiting for your money.

Buyers on the other hand, are risking taking a Non-Pay Bidder hit (and being kicked off eBay) if they don't honor their Bids/Buy It Now on eBay. It is a contract on eBay when you place a bid or make a purchase. Buyers need to be more considerate of sellers on eBay, if not for the seller, for yourselves.

When you get that itchy trigger finger, please chant this mantra:

******************, BID SECOND.
​

If you can't get an answer right before the auction ends, then don't bid.

Another seller of mechanical/electrical/electronic doo-dads, then in the middle of it, a designer bag. I would never purchase under these circumstances, but I will say the photos are of an authentic bag. That doesn't mean this seller has it in their possession, however.

Thank you! They relisted with only the Buy It Now though. I should have placed the bid at $500 but I wanted to be sure first. I will reach out to the seller.

Hi. Thanks for reply.
No. I don't have the bag. I haven't even pay for it yet. The photos I sent for authentication are from the seller. Because the bag is fake I refuse to pay for it. And the seller open an unpaid item dispute. What can I do about it if I don't do the authentication services?
Thank you.
