Thanks for the feedback. I think I am going to purchase the item and will post pics when received.
Hi wonderful authenticators!! I purchased a pair of YSL tributes on ebay and probably should have asked here first... Are these authentic? http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/201464547289
Item: 201464547289
Seller: dreamclositli
YSL Tribtoo's 80mm nude suede.
This seller has many luxury items for sale: has anyone has experience with this seller "dreamcloseli"? Theres a purple pair of YSL slingbacks they have up I was eying too.

Thanks Shuze!!! Any advice on spotting fakes that arent obvious fakes? I check the stamp inside, overall quality, conformity to the styles i know were actually produced, and have seen a variation on the sole stamp that has put me off a few pairs but is there anything else you would recommend checking, since i dont want to flood the forum 
Im obsessed with the YSL Tribute and tribtoos and there are so many on ebay...
Your help is so appreciated!!

Happy to help but this board discourages authenticators listing elements to looks for as it's felt that info only helps the counterfeiters so just keep posting your questions here and someone will look for you. Remember that very clear detailed pictures as explained on the first page are required.
Overall just really look at the shoe first forgetting the label and remember that this is supposed to be a luxury give or take $1000 item and should look like and be made like one.
Thanks for your response! The seller mislabeled them, I believe. They appear to be the Ora style. I was able to buff out the scuff, and even though she offered me a return based on the mistake, I'm going to keep them! Also, good to know that Aquatalia isn't usually faked. Thank you!
Ya gotta show the shoe. Please review the first page for required pictures. Audreylita is expert on MB and will most likely check in quickly but I can authenticate them if you show all the required pictures. Everyone says the same thing about Ferragamo who rarely does black soles but certainly makes them.
