Hey guys. Please go to eBay and report item numbers 220805392864 and 220805383248. These are both from the same seller. Purse and wallet sets. PUrses have a huge gold/black metal tag, and wallets have tag with bad font. Both purses have coney feet. Seller insists they're real. One is blue/black argyle print with huge ribbon bow, and the other is red/white circles and stripes with huge red ribbon bow. Hideous. The red even has a green "kate spade" label in the wrong shape, and some sort of tag about how it has "copy registration for the design on the US copyright office." Really.

LOL!!! Ebay pulled these, and the sellers reposted them under a different name!!! Please report 180688719077 and 180688716597. They even jacked the prices up to $100 each OBO.

Oh my word!!! She was trying to tell everyone that her step-father (who may or may not have murdered her mother) bought those purses for her mother before she "passed away" and he wouldn't know where to buy a fake. She insisted that she had researched them, and was SURE they were real, because the (huge, metal) labels looked completely accurate. What a trip!

Sheesh! These sellers missed their callings. They could be bestseller fiction writers and make more money than selling fakes on ebay.

Here's the next set of messages between her and me. I put my original on top, then you can read her response. I'm bewildered as to why she would say that the things she so obviously purchased on iOffer were her mothers...

Dear loisvain,

Hi there. We talked briefly about the "kate spade" purses... I just think you should know that most of what you buy off of IOffer.com is counterfeit. I don't know if you know that, but your IDs were the topic of discussion a purse blog (ourgardenspot AND loisvain,) and someone posted this... http://lc.ioffer.com/ratings/loisvain?view=buyer&sort=date. If you are buying this stuff from over-seas dealers, they are duping you, big time... Just thought you should know!

Dear dawnsfinallywed,

Wow, thanks for the heads up. The only items I’ve bought from iOffer have been gifts for some of my coworkers and my husband’s huge family for Christmas gifts, which have consisted of scarves, little Coach pouchettes, and jewelry. I know those are most likely fake. I also bought my son some tennis shoes once, which turned out to be a nightmare and a modded Xbox, which was also a bad experience. My mother never wanted anything fake even if she needed to borrow something of mine that was questionable to go with an outfit, she wouldn’t dare carry if it had been fake. I have a set of Fendi luggage with a matching briefcase, 4 vintage LV suitcases (3 of which are not in great shape,) 2 cheries LV purses, 3 LV briefcases, 1 Fendi purse, and 1 Gucci that all belonged to my mother. I have been really hesitant to put any of that on since all of that stupid Kate Spade stuff happened. Surely no one thinks the Fendi shoes that I sold earlier in the week were fake? I am putting on a Christian Dior purse now, but I had no idea what it cost. I don’t have much documentation, but I she did have the price tag and a hang tag in the inner pocket. The reason I was putting that one on was because I figured it was probably a cheaper one that no one would fuss about; however, the price tag says $2290; so, I’ve been pondering on this one for some time.

Melanie

Ha! I messaged "ourgardenspot", who has since changed her username to "mygardenboutique" and she replied with the same story and signed it "Melanie" as well. Multiple "pursonality" disorder??? Or just a rip-off artist?

The sad thing is, is that I found her on facebook. She is a media specialist in a middle school in KY. She works with children. I am a middle school teacher, and I am appalled by her lies and deceit-- all to make a dollar. I know educators don't get paid much, but jeez, could she have a little bit of integrity!!!

Oh, and one more thing about Melanie/loisvane/ourgardenspot/mygardenboutique... She had a "Christian Dior" for sale with a $2290 price tag!! I posted the link to the auction on "Authenticate this Dior" and, of course, it was a fake, too... It was reported, though, and pulled by eBay.

Hello all, I found this Kate Spade Samson purse in a vintage store and am wondering if you think it's real. Haven't bought it yet! The label is stiteched on, no weird lettering....no "made in..." tag inside or the hidden silvery strip. Wool seems to be good quality as well as the leather straps-very soft leather. Feet aren't large. Magnetic enclosure. Inside is lined with a stretchy twill. Thank you so much!!!
