Hi I am new here... not sure what i am doing, i need advice on a pair of Salvatore Ferragamo that i purchased from eBay. The seller reassured that these are authentic. My friends, Ferragamo lovers, some have own many of these shoes for 15-20 years are very certain that they are fake.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/190961356265?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

pic 2: the diff of the 2 shoes, 1 is store bought, and 1 from eBay. Also, the way the bottom is attached to the side of the shoe is similar to typical China made shoe, you can touch the inside and you see the under laying fabric/cushing. Whereas the store bought shoes sticks firmly to the side.

pic3: the wooden heel which is never seen with Ferragamo shoes, i compare with a China made pair, they are very similar

pic4: the logo print at the bottom of the shoes


I'd rather wear China made Bandolino or Nine West, then a fake. Please help me verify. I did bring to a local store where the Ferragamo salesman pointed out the difference. When I told the eBay seller, he wanted the info of the salesperson to confront him, but I cannot do that to someone who helps me. Your fair opinion will help me rationalize with the eBay salesperson.

Thank you

I agree I would never give-up the salesman's name. He is a great resource for you in the future and I might even write him a short note of thanks for saving you from a counterfeit purchase. The Ebay sellers are business people that should know their products enough to tell when it is counterfeit or at least its possible suspect provenance.
 
I am trying, for the first time, to have a purse I already purchased on Ebay authenticated.
Please be patient as I am learning the correct format and how to post pictures.
Well here goes, first try.:laugh:

Here is yet another vintage bag I purchased from Ebay. I have no idea how old it is but would like to know if it is a genuine Salvatore Ferragamo handbag. Thank you for your time.

To DLBIA14, I am not an expert but I have over 11 vintage Ferragamo bags and only one of them has the same lining that is in your bag. I have always been a bit suspicious of that particular handbag. I have seen that lining in some of the bags on ebay but most of them are from Japan and when I have asked questions regarding the bag's provenance they have failed to respond and then I would cancel the transaction. I think we need the wait for an expert but I will be just a curious as you in their reply.

Your right the "m" looks too round, the top loops don't come to a point. What does the inside of the bag look like? Not that I am any kind of an expert, just curious.
