darn it, i was so hoping it to be real...but, think about it, some of those other authentic sites have the same bag for like 30 bucks more, so....you never know...but then again, you never know. hahaha damn it, why can't we all be stinkin' rich!? lol
Hey, i was just looking at that site you just listed, and the same fendi bag is only $5 more than my site...what's with that? either both are fake, or both are real. hmmm, both say they have a money back guarantee, so i could get it authenticated, and then if its fake, just return it...

so, i've now grown an obsession with finding really cheap designer bags...hahah i'm so silly. ok, do you think this site is real??? http://store.yahoo.com/elementofstyle/index.html
Don't just assume its fake b/c the prices are cheap, remember, they are HIGHLY marked up in the stores

i purchased a balenciaga bag here about a month ago.
i took the bag to barney's new york and they couldn't verify
the authenticity because the leather quality was different.
everything else was the same though. still, i was very apprehensive
about keeping the bag when the authenticity wasn't verified....
so i returned it. now i'm on the waitlist at the balenciaga nyc boutique
for a medium teal! i am NEVER ordering online again unless they are
an authorized reseller. not worth the headache and hassle to save a few
hundred.

I see that many of you are very apprehensive about buying on-line. I think places like Bluefly are great to find designer handbags at prices below retail. I have a website myself and was wondering what all of you look for when buying on-line. My bags are all authentic - how do I convince people of the fact (beyond pictures)? This is not spam...I am just looking for general input. Please feel free to private message me.

you don't have to give out your receipts. some kind of transaction history
or a certificate from balenciaga that your store is an authorized reseller.
anyone who claims that they are authentic and if they are not authroized by balenciaga, i simply can't trust them.

That site is fake, he also lists his bags on ebay. If you're looking for a deal, it's not going to happen.
Is this directed to me? If so please check your facts...lmonte1221 said:
Santine112 - I mark my bags up 20-30% from what I pay, so you can do the math...I think my markup is small, but I have to keep it that way to stay below retail.
BTW to those 2 other posts - I have nothing to do with Balenciaga- I carry other brands...

I wonder if the Balenciago are said to be fake then if the Prada are real...or just really good fakes.
The messenger bags look identical to the one I bought from Neimans...
I really really want a Prada bag in the colour Lilla (Lilac pink colour), it is so pretty and I like bags with simple lines like that to use for work.
I would think I would be able to tell if it was real or not if I could see it and compare it to mine.
Though sometimes you hear that even employees at the boutiques can't tell if a bag is authentic or not so...I don't know.
I would pay $400 at Neimans: Last Call (what I paid for my black messenger) for one in that colour, but they have never had it when I have been there.

then do you have "other brands" authorization to sell their products? if not, where do you get your items from?

aloharag.com is your best bet, vogue site is fake.
I think you will find most re-sellers that undercut prices are not "authorized" re-sellers of the brands they sell (ie: Bluefly, Ashford). I am not an authorized re-seller - I buy my stock in Europe at sample sales, outlets, and other reliable sources (some of my items are new, or mint second hand). Some of the items I even buy directly from the flagship stores.TWILO said:

I beg to differ about DellaModa. I have purchased handbags from her in the past, and all have been authentic. I have a Fendi from her that I took to the Fendi boutique in New York, and it was authentic...same with the red Balenciaga I bought from her that I took to the New York boutique. I also have a Dolce & Gabbana bag from her, and although I have not taken that anywhere to check authenticity, I have a lot of Gabbana bags, and I am 100% sure it is authentic.
