I believe this seller is selling fakes or is a scam.


My reasoning:
  • Has multiples of the same bag ( "5 available")
  • Based in the US but the shipping is from Hong Kong?
  • I messaged them to see more pictures of their best conditioned bag and the creed but they said they don't have other pics and the items is the same as the pics listed already.
Thoughts? I don't wanna sabotage them so I won't put the seller's username yet.

Without more pictures, I can't confirm nor deny authenticity however gracm197458 's listings do raise red flags and I would avoid.

Red flags:
  • Multiples of same items, styles that are difficult to get
  • Highly faked styles
  • Private listings
  • New and unproven seller
NEVER buy from a seller who isn't ready, willing and able to supply pictures that are necessary to prove authenticity of her items and for buyers to feel comfortable buying for her.

AVOID gracm197458

Here's a fun one for those of us who like to save pictures. I expect the listing to poof quickly but it has fake details that I don't recall seeing, at least no often!

The above post is from 2015 but I had saved pictures in my files of the fakes she'd had on ebay.

I can't find ebay seller dequ_moaq4hza (so she may be naru) but I believe this is the same seller now peddling the same fakes on Tradesy. According to my records, she is also larixsa343 on ebay.

Tradesy seller: Grace Fang
These are very close fakes.

and

These are previous pictures posted when she was selling on ebay (comps to authentic):

And these are pictures of the same items now on Tradesy:

There's no way that they aren't the same person!
The first quoted post is from 2015 and the second is from 2019.

Here we are 6 years later (since the first post) and 2 years since the followup and the ebay seller dequ_moaq4hza and larixsa343 (3343) whose fakes were removed is still an active ebay member though not selling them on ebay.

After the ebay listings were removed from ebay, the seller moved to Tradesy and the second post was made when the fakes were found there.

Grace Fang is still selling fakes on Tradesy. (I wonder how many of these things she has!)

While I don't expect Poshmark to remove this fake, I'm hopeful that the seller might end the listing if she is aware that the bag is fake.

It's tough getting Japanese sellers' fakes pulled.

Here's the "made in Korea" creed:

It's next to impossible to get a listing removed from Japanese sellers.

This particular seller has 2 listings for Korean-made fakes.

This is the 5th time since 2014 that listings have been posted on the HOS for Korean fakes from this sseller.

The above posts of Hall of Shame listings from BOOM2HANTEN go back to 2014. And in 2014, at least one of the fakes I'm posting today was reported 7 years ago.

It's obvious to me that boom2hanten knows the items are fake because both were removed over the years and removed more than once.

Yet, they still get relisted.

And although pictures were probably posted in the past, I'll repost.
