Help! I just bought these shoes on ebay. I have a real pair of the exact same shoe in the same color that I got from a department store. I JUST noticed that my REAL shoes have a tan colored heel tip on the base of the heel. The ones I just won on ebay are black. Also, they come with an authenticity card. The ones I bought at the store did not. I just read on ebay that Cambon flats do NOT come with authenticity cards. Is that true of all Chanel shoes? Help me please, did I just buy fake shoes??

Are you talking about the "authenticity cards" pictured in the photo? I think the seller probably just misspoke. Obviously those are not cards to prove authenticity. That is just the little booklet that comes with the shoes (as I pictured below in the envelope in a pair of shoes I own). I agree w/ Kamilla otherwise in regards to the box and the heel lift. I just saw the black on black ones at Saks over the weekend too and I could have sworn the heel lift was black. Anyways, I believe they are authentic. Enjoy!

Thanks Kamilla and Ashakes. I posted this in the Chanel sub and got some feedback there too. The consensus seems to be that they are real. After I emailed the seller to make sure these were authenic, she emailed me that they are absolutely authentic, purchased at Saks in Pittsburgh, PA and worn one time. I will compare them with the ones I have carefully. I think the leather will be a dead giveaway if they're not real. They look identical from the pics except for the heel lift. Maybe they came with different color lifts?? Kind of odd but it is possible. I doubt she would have had them replaced after only one wearing.
As for the "authenticity card" Ashakes is right. It's just a care booklet. You guys are awesome. I was SO worried! I hardly ever use ebay because I just don't trust it and I was ready to swear it off for good. I feel better now. ;) Thanks!!

If I win either one of the above it will be my first pair so I will like to know if I should get size 41 if I usually wear 40. Thanks!

I am a US size 10, and I take a 41 in prives. (I don't have any yoyos.) HTH!

I would say that 99% of the mouse flats on ebay are fake. I recently got scammed with a pair myself and all the details were on point in the pics. It wasn't until I ordered a pair from Zappos and tried them both on when I noticed the difference. The authentic ones are soooo comfy and flexible...whereas the ebay ones were rigid and even larger in size. Both are adorable but I refuse to wear fakes! :yucky: Good luck in your search but I would steer clear of ebay for these.

The last pair seem to have a different inside sole which simply says Marc Jacobs and mine say "Marc by Marc Jacobs". Is that some indication that they are not authentic? :confused1:
