Wow that is really weird. Seems like it might be worth the risk for someone really wanting that bag since it's such a good deal. I don't have much experience with Vestiaire but I imagine one could get it authenticated then dispute if it's found to be fake? Also seems really early for convincing fakes to exist since the collection was so mysterious up until launch.
Yes and of all the bags it would be an odd one to make a replica of, given Aogaeru would clearly be less of a chase item vs say Bo or Chihiro/Haku for the amazonas. VC isn't perfect at catching fakes though, but you are protected if you do end up receiving a fake.

Yeah that's a good point! Plus with the quality issues on the puzzles, those would seem the easiest target for fakers. The photos in that listing are just so strange over all. They were able to take random close-ups but not a full shot. Could it be damaged or something? The price is just too good

Seems really questionable that the bag images are the same image just with and without background (and slightly resized). The aogaeru closeup is of the flamenco and the loewe dust bag -could be any dust bag

Oh yes you are right! Didn't notice the wavy leather above in the photo. Curiouser and curiouser! LOL.

The Aogaeru amazona is reflecting as ATB on APAC site for now though. Haha.
 
I think RTW will be in stock. Leather goods most likely won't be.
Customer Service also let me know that more than 5 people can purchase the item at the same time, and the person who orders it first (or in my case, who isn't blocked) will get the item.
Well that's interesting, and a little silly for Loewe to allow that! That kind of explains the phantom stock situation even - there probably is genuine stock available now but you may not be the first person to buy it!

As long as the ATB stays off the US site, I'm safe from this ghost inventory/lotto/gamble HOW ARE WE STILL DOING THIS A MONTH LATER :lol: ::cry::

Following this forum is quite dangerous! Last year I only bought a handful of Totoro items and be done with it. Never bothered to look more or buy more. Also because there was absolutely no restocking back then. But now I got alerts with this and that back in stock and I ended up with so many bags, SLGs (not planning on buying) and RTWs!

Yes indeed! I have definitely overspent on this collection because of all the updates here :P
 
That is a really weird listing. At first the only non-dodgy explanation I could think of is that it's an unwanted gift listed by someone who is clueless about the collection and just lifted a frog closeup off a google image search without noticing it's the wrong one. But looking more closely, none of the images suggest this person actually has the Amazona, and there's no reason to list it at half retail price. The seller has sold quite a lot of items so they're not clueless about luxury fashion either. Very weird.

On a related note - MY AOGAERU FLAMENCO ARRIVED!!! I am in love. This is definitely the meant-to-be bag as I have zero guilt over the money I spent on it, even after all the other purchases. :lol:
