I am writing this with so much anger in me. Chanel gurus, please help!
Recently I purchased a Chanel Jumbo Caviar #24 series off EBay from a seller ID davidmodel86
He listed the item as Authentic and we agreed to take it on personal terms. He promised that it comes with the full set and he bought it from Florence. I was convinced because he as good reviews on EBay and he gave me his personal info.
Everything came smoothly after I paid him but when the bag came it looks a little fishy because the chain was so light and squeaky! It did not come with a dustbag and the invoice was totally blackout. It’s as good as waste paper. He did not mention about this and was not apologetic. So I went to get Ironic to verify for me here and indeed it was fake!!!! So I went on to get paid authentication from Real Authentication and they verified it was fake too!
I know I should have done verification before purchase but it was such a stupid mistake. I paid 3045 euros for this fakie.
I then WhatsApped him. Initially, he agreed to return me money, then subsequently, he procrastinated and same old story trying to say purseforum and Real Authentication is BS and insisted is original and bought it from the boutique. He said it was his mom’s now he said he bought it there.
I contacted my bank as well as filed a police report in my country. They said will try their best to recoup the money from his bank with the police report.
I tried my best to Public shame him on Facebook. He added me on Facebook before transaction and I managed to save all his details and working location. Now he blocks me and refuse to refund. I don’t get it, if it’s not fake, why don’t just process a refund? This means is fake right? Guilty as charged!
This Fraudster is an Italian, working as a surfing coach in Tuscany. I feel so unjust! This is the first time I experienced this!
thanks for reading! What should I do? Please shed some light! Can I shame him here too?
