The Authenticity Test

Guys and women, please help me determine which ones of these are real or scams: http://www.geocities.com/casiraghitrio//realtest.html
I have some cosmetics, shoe and bag sites there now. Soon some jewelry sites that I am rather more suspicious of. Help me determine which ones are scams and then I can put together an accurate list for people to watch for.
Thanks!

I don't know whether or not Dolce&Gabbana did any sort of nautical themed things this season, I do know that D&G did. The tags here are clearly Dolce tags though...that said, they LOOK real?

The belts *seem* fake, even Dolce could do better and less jarring execution that than.

The shirt is SO CUTE, hmm, D&G showed anchors for fall but the tag says Dolce & Gabbana...Ask for the hologram dealy too...

Well Raffello Network has the belt on their site but its brown leather and silver studs. So maybe the belt I should X out

The hologram tag is not a good way to verify Dolce & Gabbana authenticity. They are often faked and Dolce & Gabbana pieces very, very rarely feature the tags (they are, however, on 90% of authentic D&G items). It's also simply a sticker that falls off very easily so I wouldn't freak when buying an item sans hologram.

The first t-shirt is 100% authentic; it's amazingly easy to tell just by looking at the shirt's quality. Also, keep in mind that Dolce & Gabbana tee shirts are far less faked than their D&G counterparts. As far as the belt goes, the first two pictures are of an authentic belt. It's sort of hard to tell by the third picture, but if all three are from the same auction then you're good to go.

Hi! I was wondering if anyone could tell me if a seafoam balenciaga is real or not. The tags have the right numbers on, have the '3444' on the leather tag, but i'm just not sure. Any help will be gratefully received! Does the 3444 guarantee the authenticity?

Hi, just thought I'd like to try my luck out in this thread. Please help me authenticate this Chanel wallet/purse (even though there is only 1 photo

Many thanks!

femme_fatale unless you took the photo yourself you need to credit it so it won't be deleted

 

[femme_fatale]

Sorry - the photo is not from ebay, it was sent to my email address by the seller. I hope that's enough crediting!

Here is a picture of the actual shirt I am buying I dont know if its the lighting, or what but what do you think?

 

[kiss&tell]

^Hmmms, is there an authenticity certificate that you usually get when you buy their stuff? I brought it from the actual store and everything was included in it to make sure it was authentic.

 

[JamieCD]

Well sum stuffs luk not really real.. im sorry to say that

Ya know that ppl can also falsify the authenticity!
Go to Turky ya can get D&G,LV ect wit 10Dollar, the quality is pretty ok (a friend of mine told me).

 

[Amo_Armani]

This one is also authentic and from SS06.

I bought a totebag from the spring collection, it's cute and garners lots of compliments, the actual clothes don't do much for me. Rather pay less and shop at Urban Outfitters if that's what I wanted to look like. I prefer A.P.C. for this type of "youth" clothing.
