Authentic? I really want one of these bags but I'm struggling with the number of fakes on ebay.

need to see the bottom of the bag and close up of the mirror. Ask seller what is the official TB color. Also, it was sold on 5/21 per completed listings so I wonder why it is being relisted.

This seems to be a pretty popular color for fakes right now so it may be tough to authenticate.

Here's the photos the seller took. She added them to the photos included on the ebay page. She said the reason it's re-listed is that the original person she sold it to didn't pay and that she didn't know the official color.

authentic. Bombe Tote in either metallic crackled leather or powder suede. I completely forget which.

Hi Ladies,

I would really appreciate it if you help me authenticate this Tory Burch Robinson Tote in Sand:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/151058018685?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1426.l2649

I didn't see the logo imprint in the interior lining as seen on the official website for this bag and was wondering if this was an older edition or a fake.

Thanks!
Choco

authentic and it is a newer release according to the dustbag and patent leather corners. I bet it's a Spring 2013 release.

^^^ I am pretty sure that the bags in these pics are not what you are going to receive. I bet it's a bait and switch because that is what we've seen from UK and AUS sellers. None of the bags from this seller have been authenticated.

The Double Zip in the purplish color is a very common fake. The only way to properly authenticate is to look at all of the hardware (the differences are subtle - pay attention to the etching), get the color right and feel the bag. The fakes are significantly lighter than the real deal. This is what makes authenticating Robinsons so difficult. It is also completely possible that someone can be wrong about authenticity. Second opinions are a great thing.

Lastly, certain authenticating details cannot be published as the counterfeiters are reading here as well. Notice how all of the bags now have the the "made in china" even though the format is wrong on almost all of the fakes. This has happened with LV, Chanel and Marc Jacobs as well.

general red flags:

  • if a seller has a ton of brand new bags but none have tags. Seriously, what are the odds of this?
  • seller claims it is a factory defect or second. TB does not sell these bags. Department stores tend to sell damaged bags at their outlet equivalents and most sellers that sell these have the supporting documentation for them.
  • seller has many bags of non-seasonal colors such as black or luggage. These rarely go on sale except for F&F discounts. If a seller has like 20 of a Black Double Zip or Dome satchel something is usually wrong


If anyone else can add to this that would be great ;)
