Get out of here!!!! Are you joking?????
Although I actually laughed out loud at "fartier". Wow .. if I "can" jump off a bridge .. does that mean I should??? why would anyone do that???
Because they're greedy, first and foremost, because they're idiots second, and because they're cheats, third. They'd happily have cheated me out of my money if I'd wanted one of the items, with no mention about the items authenticity.That's why I don't trust them. If I hadn't asked them about the authenticity of the fucci and the fartier, do you honestly think they would have told me??? Hell no!
They're quite happy to advertise that they're purveyors of 'fine goods' that all their goods are of the 'best quality' and that all their goods are '100% authentic', and each and every item is checked by an 'expert' but then when a customer questions the integrity of their goods they quite happily admit to them being very good replicas. Well, maybe not 'quite happily', but they certainly admitted to it, once they were called on it!
I can't even!!!! Makes me want to open a shop here
I bought a fake keychain once and was devastated ... Can't imagine how someone could do that!!!

You know what, seriously I think that this is what every small town, large town, city, metropolis, needs in this country. Each place needs a store that sells as new/nearly new name brand and designer clothing and accessories that are 100% authentic. They also need to stop robbing their potential customers (the sources of the items they consign. I appreciate that there is rent, wages, taxes, but the mark-ups are unreal. When you walk into a store the following week after the week prior they bought some of your things and all they offered you for a particular garment was $2. Well, then you walk in the following week and see the same item going for $48??? That's sheer greed. I know they have overheads, but that's ridiculous. And when you do see the authentic goods, a Coach bag, a D&B purse, they're so old. Yet they're almost asking retail for them! Crazy! And like I say, selling fakes as genuine? Unluss the customer has the know how to call then on it? No, no, no, no, no! I've though about doing this myself on the side. Maybe I will, we'll see.
Hmm .. we should talk .. LOL! Totally agree ... honestly that is why I am so vocal about giving props to the few places I really really trust
Honestly, I wish I could talk to other like minded women about things like this. It doesn't matter if I'm in Florida and you're in Alaska, there's no harm with pm'ing each other with out ideas. I have ton of really nice clothes, books, bags, accessories and shoes I want to sell, I've started with Bonanza, but no go so far. Ebay's next I think.I want to go to school to become a nail tech and work from home as I'm not well.. I can see it in my mind now, a really pretty decently sized room, with one side taken up with the manicure table, pedi bath, gel table, etc. Whilst the other side has pretty shelves on the walls with clothes racks, and shoes racks at the bottom. There'll be tables to the front displaying nice bags. I like the sound of that, I really do.
what an amazing list! I live in Alaska ^^^^ 
and we have two consignment stores here, one of them has incredible finds she travels to Seattle, Portland etc just to go find good deals and brings them back to the store.. incredible inspiration! do what you love

Wow! That's so cool. I'm so happy for you, there's nothing better than a really nice consignment store with great authentic products, a fantastic layout, decent prices and nice staff. I used to frequent some nice consignment stores when I lived out in Cali, but haven't really found anying to talk about in the two years I've lived here. Fine by me, I'm only here for another year or so, then we should be getting orders again!
Totally ... it is like Plato's closet!!!! I am going to see if the one's in the district are open on Sunday. I also saw one in Bethesda I am going to check out. Hmmm .. wondering if there might be an opportunity here
There is a Plato's Closet actually in DC?
I personally dunno about in DC, but if you ever come south of DC there's a big one in Fredericksburg.
yeah, I've heard about that one.
resalelover - mentioned something about one opening on Sunday in the District. I can't find any info on it though.
Wow... it's exactly what I'm looking for.

Both of these ladies have been members of this forum for a long time. I think I've seen them in the Chanel, Bag Showcase and Authenticate This forums, whatever, the premier designer forums. Both are reliable. If I remember correctly, smoothoprter autheticated one of my Chanels.it was a few years ago so I could be wrong. As for the email address, don't know it.
