I already have my bags checked by the authenticators here. So many things are different from the original. I must say nowadays the bag is too good fake and it's best to compare to the original one closely.

I am sorry for this, vc needs to shape up, and have specialists of each brand authenticate. So many fakes and very expensive ones too!
Do you have the link to the listing/seller?
Yes, here are 2 Dior bags. One more thing, the label of the fake bags are sewn around and the fonts are bigger than normal which are not normal for authentic Dior.

Here are a few fake details of this bag.
The last photo; the blue one is from Dior boutique and the bottom is from that seller.

Awful!
You know what I always advice? When buying on vc you need to be very careful from whom you buy. The seller of the dior bags has no real history of selling luxury items. I would never ever buy from a seller like that.
I only buy from high ranking sellers who have a good track record of luxury items and who seem to answer questions etc from potential buyers.
I hope this gets resolved quickly.
Thank you for your advice. I know I should be more careful with these. I checked her background a bit and saw that she sold Diorama, some Dior shoes and Dior sunglasses so I thought maybe it should be fine since she's been selling for a few years already. Also judging from her photo's, it looks fine also or maybe she know how to take the photo's without spotting the fake? Until I could see the bags in real and apparently it's a good fake and if you don't have a authentic bag with you or go to Dior boutique to conpare. You probably never know that the bags are actually fake. Nowadays the fake becomes so closed to the original one. Even the smell and the leather, I must admit they have no weird smell and the leather look are about the same as mine only mine is a bit heavier. I really hate how people do this. If they sell fake for 500, I would have known and won't buy for sure but this the price of the original ones.

Were they deemed fake? Take the issue up with paypal, if you paid via this method. If not, take it up with you cc company. Never rely on VC for authentication, have it done before buying.
I think scammers are counting on VC "experts" not knowing how to properly authenticate. I don't trust any seller that doesn't provide adequate/appropriate photos for you to have it authenticated prior to purchase. Likewise, those that state "don't worry, VC will authenticate if for you". Right!
Pssssh authenticate for you please! LOL
I hope people read this thread thread before they decide to purchase from VC
Truthfully I used to buy Hermes bags a few times with VC and they all went well without any problem except these Dior bags which I bought for my sister. She checked all the details with Dior website and it matched. The weird thing is the bags on Dior website have different details from the bags in the boutique. I wonder if Dior tries to prevent people to make the fake bags by giving different details on the website. I myself has been selling my own collection at VC and all went well. It seems VC really has no knowledge of Dior bags and Chanel earrings. I saw a lot of fake Dior bags and Chanel earrings there.
I only buy from them knowing I can open a dispute if I find things to be fake. Most photos on there aren't even enough to properly authenticate. I once bought a Goyard, auth, but the condition was worse than described (cracking canvas) and had a hotstamp on the inside that was not in the description nor in the photos. They offered a full refund, which was ok ( I declined as the price was still ok and I wanted the handpainted canvas), but better service would have been if they contacted me prior to shipping it to me regarding the hotstamp and condition.
What's also bothering about them is that they have obvious fakes on there that don't get removed.

To that list you can add alexander mcqueen scarves and clutches, louboutin shoes, herve leger dresses and so on.
I think it's best to avoid buying from the sites as ebay or other online platforms except original brands. From the photo's you can not judge 100% sure that they are authentic. Fake becomes better and better. I myself normally buy from original boutiques only except for rare items as Hermes bags. These Dior bags will give my sister a good lesson. I told her to save up the money and buy from Dior boutique only. Spare me the trouble!!!
