LVlvoe_bug said:I found a Gucci bag that I loved and tried to get authenticated but the tag was not clear enough. I asked for a clearer pic which she posted on her auction but it was still blurry. I asked again for a clearer one and she said she was tired of taking pictures, that it was authentic and would not ruin her business selling fakes. I walked away for the attitude, my feeling was if she is not going to work with me now if something is wrong with the bag she wont help me later. I could not get what the big deal was sending me a clear pic of the tag~ I did tell her it was for authenticating. Well, 4 relists later the bag is still sitting there waiting for a buyer. If I was a seller and confident in my product, I would have no problem taking whatever pics the buyer was asking. Have you tried Yoogis for pre-owned? Every item I have posted for authentication has been good and they have an A rating on the BBB which is good.
This is very true. All my LV's are preloved from eBay & Malleries. Saw an item on eBay that the seller only posted a stock photo from somewhere. Not a picture of the actual item itself. Requested specific additional photos which of course seller responded with additional photos but not of the things I asked for namely the zipper pull, the heat stamp, the lock. Requested them without flash & every single one had flash. Not one clear picture in the bunch. Again kindly requested clearer photos and informed seller anyone looking at this item to purchase who is a true LV purchaser will request the same photos. The response..."ok." To date not one clear shot has been posted and no offers have been made on the item. I believe if seller is really selling an authentic item there would be no hesitation in providing whatever photos are requested.
