Report Mulberry Fakes

If that is where it came from, then either the store was sourcing their stock elsewhere and passing it off as genuine, or someone bought a genuine one and took back a counterfeit and then the counterfeit was sold to you. Presuming the store was an official Mulberry stockist, then they wouldn't handle counterfeits to know the differences - that is the reason why Mulberry (and the other brands) don't authenticate because they don't know the differences. Hence, genuine bags have been destroyed in the past as Mulberry stated them to be counterfeit and even now, we still see them repairing very obvious fakes. It is a criminal offence to knowing sell a counterfeit item, so you will need to decide the best course of action.
Hi Jazzy

Hallelujah I have found the receipt so that is a start! However now the company has gone just need to find them - I am so mortified by this. It is so funny that even Mulberry cannot identify fakes because they don't always know the difference - how are us mere mortals supposed to know! I actually have bought, used and sold lots of Mulberrys but I only really stick to the vintage congo type, fakes are easy to spot with them! Plus they come up so lovely with some tlc and polish, I have had some beautiful ones over the years. I will certainly never be going down the new route again. Anyway to finalise - thank you JazzyJay and MiniMabel you did me a huge favour otherwise I would have sold this unwittingly and that would have been bloody awful for someone else!!! I didn't realise I could report any fakes to here for you to report - I will keep my eyes open on the congos in future and let you know if I spot one. There was an obvious one the other day that the poor lady paid well over a £100 for :-( Keep the good work up - JazzyJay will you pass this on to MiniMabel for me Thank you xx
