This is very strange because the photo looks like it was taken from a store display. You can see the metal display bars in the background and some other shoes. I would be nervous about only one photo.

^^^I know some honest people do go on there to sell their stuff, but that is crazy. Python for $290??? Right....
I have gone on there before to warn others. Somebody had stolen my silver pigalle pics and NGG's and they were probably just running off with their money. They also had stolen some other Ebayer's Iowa Zeppa pics.

Wow ioffer is scary!! I just did a search on Louboutins and hundreds of listings came up, look at this, the seller even states that they are replicas, but from the photos, they look so real!?!? I can't believe this.

Yep. I went on there a long time ago to warn people and then I got over it, b/c the idiots were still buying. I'm sure they got scammed. And, those Anemones are SCARY!
The problem is some of these people probably get a real pair, take the photos, and then return them. Then, the crappy fakes are sent out, if anything is ever sent out.
Some of those sellers do not take Paypal so that would be a red flag right there IMO.
Off Ebay, I accept Googlecheckout, but I still have to do everything that Paypal requires, other than the confirmed address. And, on top of that, I have receipts anyways to prove that I purchased all of my Louboutins from the boutique or department store, so oh well.
It's sad that it's so easy to get scammed though!

They might be real, but she doesn't have great feedback and she had an auction up a while back for the silver pigalles and her description really bugged me. LOL She stated that only 600 were made or something crazy, which was not the case. I owned a pair that were originally purchased from Neiman Marcus and I know I was not one of the lucky 600. haha
I would try to call some of the places that stock CL and see if they can ship to you. I'm sure CL Paris would. You might have to pay a bit more with duties and shipping, but at least you know you are getting the real thing, no questions asked. Plus, it's not like her price is great. Retail is $540/550 I believe on the patent pigalles. With her starting bid price, I bet w/ duties and shipping you would end up paying the same as her starting price anyways.
Squeak - you should always try to contact US department stores or CL boutiques. I am sure that they will ship internationally. Plus the CL boutiques in NYC are very accomodating and will send you emails with photos of shoes that they have available in your size.
I am sure that *most* ebay folks that sell CL shoes on ebay are real, but these listings on ioffer make you think twice about buying on ebay. Just make sure that you always buy from a reputable seller with good feedback and that the seller is helpful and courteous.

I'm not looking for authentication, but more of a warning, these are absolutely fake:

Yes, these are authentic. This sandal is especially gorgeous in the nude patent.
Calling CL specialists, are these genuine ?
