Well, I wear mine every day (I have the black & white one, but without the red anchers). I'd say it's a fake, mostly due to the fact that the seller states that you'll be buying one of 10 available - who in their right mind has 10 of these things (the rare ones with the extra decoration) and sells them off at such a low price. I'd say dash out the extra cash and get one from a department store. I paid 160 euros for mine 3 years ago and have worn it almost every day since, even tying it to my bags, wearing as a belt etc. and it is holding up extremely well. Worth every penny - I'd buy another in the blink of an eye if mine ever were to fall apart. Good luck on your quest!
 
HI, unfortunately this is a fake, the tag is too big.

Hi everyone,
So in the recent and extremly unfortunate passing of the fabulous Lee Alexander McQueen, I finally decided I was just going to purchase the scull scarf I've always wanted but never had the courage to. After thinking about it I thought I'de check out ebay and I came across the link bellow... I find it hard to tell apart fake scarves from the real deal. I would appreciate any opinion on it and maybe some tips on how to point out the good fakes. Hopefully I'll be able to grab one for a steal rather than having to order one full price plus shipping and duty off Neiman or Saks (because I cannot find any in Toronto) but I think $84 might be too low of a number and if im going to be paying more than $200 on ebay I might as well just pull together an extra hundred and be certain that im getting an authentic product. Thanks, can't wait to finally have it!:D

Kelly, they have them at Holts on Bloor. I see you are from Toronto. If they are sold out I am sure they have them at another location. I got one for Christmas and they are amazing on, so light. Splurge and get one you won't regret it

Hello

This forum has been such use to me in the past but I have a specific question so please bare with me, I'm new. I'd be grateful if you could look at this Novak listing. Usually I'd avoid eBay for bags but the seller seems genuine and sent further photos of the interior. I'm waiting to find out if there's a serial number inside the bag.

Thank you
 
hi,
i need your help and hope someone is a mcqueen bag expert:) i tried to take many pictures and if there is something i'm missing please let me know. it is a leather bucket bag. the leather on the body of the bag is sort of a metallic finish to it. there aren't any zippers. it has a drawstring at the top with the skull. thank you for any help. the hardware of the "squares" do not have any embossed or engravings on it so it makes it harder for me to even determine the authenticity.

hi,
i need your help and hope someone is an alexander mcqueen bag expert:) i just bought this on ebay and am not sure. i will also put the ebay link but the pictures were not all that great so i took some of my own. i tried to take many pictures and if there is something i'm missing please let me know. it is a leather bucket bag. the leather on the body of the bag has sort of a metallic finish to the leather (slouchy part). there aren't any zippers. it has a drawstring at the top with the skull. thank you for any help. the hardware "squares" do not have any embossed or engravings on it so it makes it harder for me to even determine the authenticity.
