Ok I know for a fact the “hermès bags” are fake and I feel sorry for the people that got them from you. First of all, the receipt envelope is 100% fake. That’s not how Hermès do them at all. Also, the platic little bag inside the canvas bag is also a huge red flag. And the receipt itself is fake. That’s not how they do receipts at all. You did a poor job authenticating those pieces and you are scamming your subcribers by saying they are real when you know nothing about the products and ask someone on the phone to say they are legit. Shame on you.

I was told that as well... from the counterfeit sellers though 😅 I think high-end brands (Gucci, LV, Hermes, Chanel... from what I've heard) normally destroy their products that do not pass the quality control. But for shoes/sneakers (Nike, Adidas, Sketcher... from what I've seen), *sometimes* the one that has some tiny imperfections but made in the same factory did make it to the market at a much lower price. Although I've seen only the commonly sold ones, not the rare/collection pieces. Though, most of the times, if you see some items that has a very suspiciously cheap price tag, they normally are fakes. The one to be careful for is actually the one that is 'slightly' cheaper than the store set price, because they are really well made and look passible as real ones for untrained eyes.

I was so scared when you left those bags with somebody (because supposedly the expert would be in “the next day”). That’s like a classic jeweler Scam- where they switch out your stuff for a fake and then tell you it’s a fake. Just as an FYI for anybody reading this. Usually, never let the stuff out of your sight!

Happened to my mom once. Her wrist-watch broke after years of use - and that watch was a gift from some rich japanese woman. The glass was in fact sapphire and the mechanism itself was Swiss. The guy at the repair shop said like wow you have a genuine Swiss watch. So my mom left it with him and got it back the next day. A year later the watch stops working again. Mom takes it to another repair shop and the guy in there says, well, what did you expect from a cheap Chinese mechanism - these break easily. .... The guy who fixed it before simply stole the original Swiss thing and replaced it with Chinese crap.

A lot of it is pretty easy even for collectors - a major thing is quality - the knockoffs are all made in China and generally they don’t really care about the quality unless it’s something super super valuable in a case where the buyer is more likely to spot a fake that they’re trying to pass off (like old coins- albeit they will do practice runs on run of the mill coins to see if they pass the test at a certain level)... they figure a lot of ignorant ppl will buy Louis and such in the secondary market and be completely ignorant on the item... in Europe they don’t allow photos in the shops bc of counterfeiting (the Chinese send spies to get the designs to copy)- the security on photos is like the secret service 😂.... and any Asian person that walks in (if they even allow them in) is definitely monitored like a hawk 🤷🏼‍♀️ The counterfeiting is part of the reason Asians (who Europeans label all as Chinese) are treated so badly in Europe - they counterfeit not just couture items, but cultural items like Venetian glass...

The Hermes bags that she got are really really popular in Korea so resellers buy a lot of them when they restock on the US or Europe Hermes website. They usually send them to a shipping company(?Don't know what it's called in English) in the US or Europe and then the companies send them to Korea.. so I'm thinking it was a Korean who bought them.

I am so glad you didn't get completely scammed. However, I owe few originals such as The neverfull LV, Chanel bags and others. However after many years of spending ten of thousands on genuine products I have decided to get myself a fake for the first time. I wanted Birkin bag so bad and felt it would be insane to spend so much money so after some research I got myself high end rep. There is NO CHANCE anyone can find out it's a fake without extremely careful examination and only by someone who's truly expert. The quality is insane and put lots of those "luxury" brands to shame. I never looked back since then.

This just furthermore shows how ridiculous this whole label/brand thing really is. With replicas this exact, where really lies the difference in worth? It's just all so weird. Edit: just to clarify, I'm aware that many fake items are not up to par quality wise, but there are replicas out there that come very close. And come on, especially sneakers are such a cheap product to begin with and they are charging hundreds if not thousands for rubber and glue. It's also been proofen time and time again that the quality of designer items has going down significantly for years now, while prices go up. Most high end labels produce just as cheaply as fast fashion brands. Chanel is a good example, the hardware on the flap bag used to be real gold plated and the leather used to be much thicker, they were all handmade and the warranty has gone down. The quality is nowhere near what is charged for that bag today and in 2021 they raised their prices by 15% while the product has gotten worse because they're trying to reach Hermes exclusivity which is artificially created anyway. People are getting scammed by these brands. Even the image that came with these luxury brands is void by no because literally everyone and their dog is running around in these labels. Not that that's solely a bad thing because this whole 'I'm better than the working class and need to show it' thing is disgusting anyway, but how special does a Dior saddle bag or a Cartier love bracelet really feel if I see it on Instagram 12.000 times a day?

How do they have an outlet location for the faux items if it's illegal to knowingly sell counterfeits?

@designerauthentication7439 2 жыл бұрын

This shop should have known better. It was a huge faux pas to have done so. The people who end up purchasing these replicas then come to an authentication house like us because they were sold a fake from a place who they thought to be a sound resale site. It's not a good idea to go to a consignment shop for authentication. Instead visit a place like ours whose sole interest is in authenticating designer goods.

Coming from a person who use to work at Marshall Fields in Chicago, Macy's (Handbag dept) and retail, a lot of products are rejects or many didn't make the cut so the shop that made the items either throw them in the garbage or sell them. Just because it didn't make it to the store doesn't make them not mfg by the brand (ex: Fendi wants 10,000 bags made, come and pick up products, inspects but only take 6,000 bags instead of all the bags made. Now, this means the rest of the bags were still made for Fendi but either something was wrong with them or Fendi just didn't want them and now they go in the garbage or ppl sell them for 70% cheaper). Reason I love Hermes because they're not as wasteful although I wouldn't personally spend that much on a bag or pair of sandals (shoes). Also, since when does LV authenticate items??... They've been told they can't tell people if their item is real or fake (due to the SA could be wrong and something else, I forgotten. I was told this by an LV SA and a lady right here on YT who use to work at LV and who's channel is about LV).. Yes, replicas now aren't knocks off but look like the real thing..

LV actually doesn’t authenticate items for you that’s correct. I don’t think she took the items to LV though but to a luxury consignment store. However, if you take an item to LV for repairs they will check if it’s authentic before they do it. So let’s say you buy something on eBay that’s not in the best condition and intend to get it fixed by LV, you can do it and be sure that it’s authentic

I live vicariously through your purchases. So I was excited you purchased this in the first place. I'm glad you did the follow up showing the places where you got them priced and showing us the differences between the two. I don't purchase name brands in consignment or anything like that because I couldn't tell if it was real or not. Also, I tend not to buy things because of it's label. I want to buy quality items. With these designer brands, the quality doesn't match the price.

@@ladyoflove1551 Yes it does happen with these name brands.. Just because an item is luxury doesn't mean rejects or items the company didn't want isn't real. I know this for a fact because I worked at Marshall Field's and Macy's in the designer handbag area and I know some history. Also, when you have a great SA at Bloomingdales as we'll, you learn somethings as my mother and I did. Gucci would put a order in for 10,000 bags (as an example), come in do an inspection, reject the one's that doesn't meet their perfection and most of the time will not take all the bags. Out of 10,000 bags they will only take 4,000-6,000 bags. The rest are either thrown in the garbage or people take them and sell them for 70% cheaper... Also, not all bags are made the same and some rejects slips through the passing as well. Hermes is about the only non wasteful luxury company.

A tip for Hermès! At least the boxes - take a black light and shine it on the orange box. Real ones have a repeating horse pattern. If you’re has this it’s a good indication (although not the only indication) that the item inside is authentic.
