An auction house in Stockholm is selling this scarf as Hermès, La Femme Aux Semelles de Vent. :sick:
I have informed them that this is not Hermès, it is a fake. I sent pictures of the real thing. They answer me that nothing says this is fake. Am I crazy????!!!! :mad: :cursing:

This is from Hermes Scarf Guide's album How avoid fakes, where the fake scarf above is pictured:

Oh holsby, how terrible that an auction house is in denial. I do hope no one buys that hideous fake, H shoukd alert them directly! Thank you for trying anyway! Hugs!:heart:
 
You're not crazy, it's a fake (and not even close).

The scarf was sold yesterday! I've have had a long discussion with the auction house on their Facebook site. They are quite stubborn! I posted a link for them to Hermès Scarf Guides. I wrote to Hermès Scarf Guides about this scarf and got the following answer, which I posted on the auction house's Facebook site and now I am waiting for their answer! I hope this made them change mind!
The answer from Hermès Scarf Guides: "Just a quick check on the low resolution pictures available via Google Search would make anyone doubt. Their photo is not very good but Iam sure that this is a fake. Remember like all auction houses, /evilbay - my expression to avoid the link/ included... These people will say that responsibility for checking the accuracy of the description is the Purchasers, and they are not liable for mis-representation, etc.... G."
