You are not stupid. You work hard for your money like the rest of us and you should feel free to ask questions before you let go of it. Unfortunately, as you have learned, you can't always trust a stranger's word concerning authenticity. I certainly don't mind when buyers ask me questions. I even had a buyer ask me about the color of the lining of a bag when I had no less than three pics of it the listing! No question is "stupid" as far as I am concerned. In the future, ask those sellers questions no matter what they say. If they want your money they will answer them.
you got a point!
Need more info. here to make a definitive opinion, but I think if you received your $$ back you need to return the bag. (seller to pay return ship) Don't think they really need to send you a box since you should have the one it was originally shipped in...I DO NOT condone anyone who sells fake merchandise, however, sales people aren't always experts....There is a possibility that the bag is real in which case you received a free bag and the seller is screwed...If it's fake why would you want to keep? Paypal acct. would also have your seller's id... Now that you've found this site I hope you won't purchase anything else w/o posting here first...esp. since you have purchased 3 fakes so far!
If paypal/ebay has instructed you to destroy the "fake" bag, then you can follow
their instructions. Chances are that if the seller receives the bag back, they will
probably relist and attempt to sell it again. Yes, you should block the e-mails from
this seller and if you have the e-mail that ebay/pp sent you to destroy the bag,
just forward that e-mail to the seller & be finished with him.
Any seller that won't answer questions or says don't ask any ?'s, is simply bad news
and would be a red flag waving .
Good luck and try to remain calm.

Wanted to add this.. if the seller doesn't like the idea of his bag being destroyed
as per ebay/pp instructions, let him take that matter up with ebay/pp. and not
send harassing e-mails to you.

stop replying to this seller. send one final message stating that ebay/paypal advised you to destroy the bag, and if he has an issue with that, to contact paypal and ebay since it was their instruction. then let him know you are not going to be communicating with him furture because the transaction has been completed.
I know that seller has been on and on about it, and now he sends me another email. That if he sends me a box with paid postage, how would he know I will send the item. I think this guy disparately wants to get his bag back to sell again. As for now, I am just trying to ignore the guy.
On the purse board on Ebay I saw people being told to take a marker and write "FAKE" on the bag before returning it. Of course, one must be 100% sure it's fake to do that.
Who cares if the seller calls you a thief! S/he's the outlaw in the first place!
Wouldn't you have the seller's ID from when you paid by paypal?
