You might also find that people are more willing to be patient with you and give you the benefit of the doubt when you DON'T post something like this on the ComplaintsBoard:
"... Anyway, with all my deleted posts and the false verification by the "experts" there, I came to a conclusion that Purse forum might be a scam."

You're entitled to your opinion, and if you want to post it at the CB or on the front page of the New York Times, that's your privilege and your right. But you don't seem to be willing to listen to what the members here are telling you, and that's part of your problem

I'm listening and responding accordingly. The problem is that it's some "established" ppl here that don't seem to be wiling to listen to new voices.

Also, as a non-biased member, I have no territorial investment to any sites on the Internet. Purseforum fits my needs as a brand item consumer, and it happened that there were opinions that I shared with on the ComplaintsBoard as well. However, I posted the exact same content here as I did on the ComplaintBoard so nothing sneaky about that.

Just proof that life needs more emoticons :p

Hey, a question re: the scarf fandango. Since you purchased online, you may want to consider that the photos of the scarf were authentic but the scarf you received was not the same one in the photos, it's happened before...

Vlad and I started the site and many people that 'know' Vlad know he is a big jokester!

Also, if anyone knows me around here you know I'm very hesitant to ban and believe in 2nd chances.

Yes, no secret!

I know. I read about them online which I really liked and that's why I joined this site!

Oh, the seller relisted the same scarf again online. The scarf I got was exactly the same as the photo, but really thick/stiff with so much static. My hair on the floor flew up and stuck to the scarf, gross!

No comment on your particular scarf, but silk also causes static and Hermes scarves vary in thickness/stiffness, even from year to year and design to design. It's not an indication of authenticity or lack of same. Just saying.

Can anyone tell me why, starting with post # 48, it 's showing the posts by puchikiwi as if they're my posts instead of hers? I'm confused...something's wrong there.

That's new information for me. The Japanese dry cleaner that I spoke to said that the polyester nowadays are so similar to silk that they determine whether something's authentic silk by static--that only polyester would create that much static. I'm not an expert on dry cleaning so I believed the information.

The seller emailed me and told me that they were relisting the item so that's how I found out.

I meant how can you be sure it's the same scarf? Pattern could be the same etc. But the one on the photo could be genuine and the one shipped fake? Just a thought. I don't know anything about Hermes scarves but do know that sometimes bags are switched in that manner.
