👎😣Ugh 😡I personally wouldn't be caught dead in anything counterfeit. They support slave and child labor, are illegal and fund terrorist groups. Selling them and trying to pass them off as authentic is wrong. If they have the copied designers name or logo on them they are NOT an inspired item. They are an illegal FAKE. All the items I sell are 1000% authentic ❤️❤️❤️ and thank goodness for Poshmark Concierge! A must needed addition to our wonderful app. Shop safe! ❤️

@stefaye23 I thought you might appreciate my humor 😜 hehe
zippy14u
I'm with on authenticating. What makes me very suspicious is when someone will not show the pictures you ask for. What are they hiding???? Big sign that they av a replica/fake.
susansupernova
@zippy14u true true! Anyone who hides info or conveniently blurs pics is probably up to no good. Also those that say "don't ask me if its authentic-if you have to ask, then don't buy". Not good. I say ask away! Ask me anything! Ill take pics of every corner and crevice if I have to! 😊
mandymerico
@susanleeyogi Thank you for this post! It is not inspired if it is ripping off a designers logos! That makes it a fake/fraud. Some people do not get this! I shared your post. I hope some ladies get the message.
susansupernova
@mandymerico I agree dear! Thanks for the share-maybe one day we can rid posh of most of those nasty fakes once and for all.🌺
mandymerico
@susanleeyogi I have to laugh when I see posts where are ladies are upset that their fake was removed by Posh. I wish people understood that fakes are illegal and its in the Posh rules that you cannot sell them! I hope one day we do see a fake free Poshmark!
jenjones
Hahaha! Love it!

heyjnet
I never ever wear fakes. My gay uncle told me when I was 12: "Be true to you & only purchase what u can afford. Never use fakes because people will know. Then one day when u do have the real thing, everyone will still think it's a fake--U will lose credibility." Hs words left a lasting impression on me. (Although I do have an ugly Coach/Burberry knockoff on my page that were hand me downs from my another relative that I refused to use from day 1 & just wanna get rid of! LOL.)
susansupernova
@heyjnet Your uncle is a wise man :-) I think we have all been either duped by a knockoff at one time or another or gifted one. Mine was a nasty fake tag heuer watch. Gross. But I had to wear it because the BF at the time got it for me. As soon as I dumped him it went in the trash!!
heyjnet
@susanleeyogi What a funny story! Maybe if he got you a real one he'd still be around! Haha! 😜 I've gotten pretty great at spotting fakes. I see fake LVs everywhere! (Ugh...tacky!) But I'm with u on the whole not supporting child labor thing. Also these counterfeits have been linked to terrorism & illegal drugs. Part of me feels like many people are oblivious to the negative repercussions of purchasing fakes.
susansupernova
@heyjnet Nah even if he had gotten me a real one I would have dumped him 😜 I totally agree with you-there is nothing good about counterfeit anything. For all the above reasons, plus really who does anyone think they are fooling? LV fakes are everywhere on here, along with Louboutin, Balenciaga, Chloe, etc etc etc. If a person cannot afford the real deal, it's perfectly ok to carry or wear something else! There are plenty other designers that make beautiful items for less $. I had to save for the items I have-I buy certain designers because of the quality and because they fit who I am as a person. I could ramble on and on 😊 But you know what I mean 🌺
heyjnet
@susanleeyogi Exactly! I have a friend who loves purchasing bags from Target on sale because she's still a student. But she gets compliments on her outfits all the time! The key is she knows how to dress well & understands what flatters her. Because of that, she can make a $50 outfit look "high end." Then I see people in raggedy, outdated clothing carrying an LV bag & I think, "Um, you look silly!" 😁
susansupernova
@heyjnet 😀😀😀 truth!
susansupernova
@mrsmandi Yup, its non stop and rampant on here and many other online sale sites. All I can say to buyers is to DO YOUR HOMEWORK on brands that are known to have counterfeit copies of them out there. Know the signs. Some fakes are better than others, while some are downright horrid to look at upon first glance. Keep up the fight girl!
couturegirl
Love this..especially the 2nd pic!! This is one of my biggest problems on here and other sites. I've had a big mouth about it and have been told I'm a 'fat cat' because I say it's not right for people to buy/sell them. No matter how many times you say it's illegal and can get arrested it just doesn't sink in. And you're right about ones who complain on here that their listing got removed. You hear, well there are so many on here so why did they pull mine. 2 wrongs don't make a right!! I don't get why someone would want to own a fake if they can't afford the real..a lot of them aren't even beautiful bags. If more people knew what went in to making them maybe they'd stop..but I always think that about furs too and they still sell. I love seeing people who feel the same about counterfeit junk!
susansupernova
@couturegirl ❤❤So so true-chalk me up as a Fat Cat as well. It's fake, cheap, wrong, it's not good, it's bad, it's annoying...yadda yadda. When I couldn't afford the lines that I love now, I saved up for simple and classic styles by lower end designers. Or I carried vintage! I had a 1940's Mexican tooled leather bag that I literally wore to pieces. The fakes are gross and nasty and everyone who knows can tell. Nice to meet you-and your closet rocks!! 😎
idahotammy
@susanleeyogi I love this post. I just ask someone who is selling 2 rings for $15 and she said they had diamonds. I ask if real the answer I got was I should know by the price they were not real diamonds. I also saw a black bag that has a Chanel tag and emblem. I ask if they could take a photo of the serial number. They said it did not have one. So I said I guess that explains why is $80 versus $900. $80 for a fake bag is still expensive. Ok Tammy's rant is over. Have fun Poshing!!!
susansupernova
@idahotammy Rant on lady!!! I hear ya! Many do! Thank goodness!!!
nangrami
Thankyou for posting this! What's funny too is that it really isn't a matter of budget. You can get a gorgeous second hand authentic designer handbag in perfect sharp here on posh for as much as you would pay for a decent looking knock off! Also, I recently read in Newsweek that many of these factories that produce these fake bags overseas are actually owned by terrorist organizations! So by buying these things you are actually helping to fund terrorism! Sounds extreme but I did a little background check and its true!
susansupernova
@mangrami exactly!! I have a few bags that I purchased gently used for a great deal. Some bags IMHO actually look better the more you carry them (Balenciaga) so the previous owners did all the work for me making them slouchy and gorgeous and broken in.
You are so right about the fakes funding shady dealings. It's scary. 😣
thehautemama
@susanleeyogi I could not agree more! I just started getting into higher end bags, and am looking for a gently used Balenciaga Motorcycle bag or Chloe Paddington. As I am searching through Posh and EBay I finding so many fake bags. My pet peeve is when they label them as authentic but if you scroll through the comments they will admit it's a "high quality inspired bag" once you read through the comments. UGH, I have wasted so much time going through all the fake listings, it's crazy to me people are selling inspired items for $200-$300. And crazier people actually buy it.
susansupernova
@heathermckay Hi dear! Ah yes, it's a long road when trying to find authentic bags that are pre-loved and in the condition you want. But it's worth it for sure! I am a big fan of Chloe as well-and the fakes are pretty easy to spot. But I hear ya-the listings that sneak in "high quality replica" boil my blood. No such thing!! 😡
susansupernova
@heathermckay oh! Also tag me in any bags you might be considering and I can help u with authentications. One of my first designer bags was a Chloe Paddington. I sold all of them but two 😊
thehautemama
@susanleeyogi You are awesome, thank you! I can spot a fake Coach or Michael Kors from a mile away, but I am still getting familiar with the higher end bags. So an experienced eye will be appreciated!
susansupernova
FYI for all ladies looking to authenticate anywhere-this is what you need. I copied this from The Purse Fourm (I am a longstanding active member).
WHAT IS NEEDED TO GIVE YOU THE MOST ACCURATE AUTHENTICATION OPINION:
Large and clear pictures of:
Front and back of the bag
Front and back of the inside tag
Bale (curved metal hardware that attaches the strap to the bag)
Rivet (round metal stud on the back of the handle with usually 2 notches in it unless it's an earlier model)
Front buckles
In general, you need as many detailed pictures as possible.
I cannot authenticate if photos are:
blurry
dark
tiny
Tips for taking good photos:
do not use flash or zoom
use MACRO setting (indicated by flower on digital cameras)
use natural light if possible
use a steady hand!
creneelifestyle
Amen!!!!!!!
andine
This post is right on!!!!!!! At least twice I've sent something back because it turned out to be fake. 😡 Glad Poshmark was able to make it right and that in both cases I had an authentic of my own, took photos next to each other and was able to clearly state the case to PM. 👉 NO FAKES!!! 👈
susansupernova
@andine 💕💕Right on girl! What brand was it? Glad it worked out for you.
andine
A Tiffany necklace and a Michael Kors bracelet. I'm kind of silly - if I like something I may buy several in different colors - for me and for Mom. So I had several real MK bracelets to compare. And for Tiffany, well, it was obvious ... But I also had a real one from my own store purchase and the comparison wasn't even close. Since then, I think I'm close to guru status on Tiffany ...the ladies at the store spent a lot of time with me and tho you have to pay a lot for a real authentication process thru them, they are a wealth of knowledge and basically gave me enough info to set it straight. I haven't purchased more Tiffany's on PM since... But I may down the road.
susansupernova
@andine Hah! I had the same thing happen! I am pretty up to snuff on Tiffany as well, and had a 10mm bead necklace that I wanted to grab the matching bracelet for. So I scoured eBay (before posh) and found one that the photos looked pretty legit. I get it and its a nasty fake. The lady was all pissy and defensive, even when I politely pointed out the problems. I was refunded immediately tho. So now I don't do that anymore. 😊❤ I actually got accused of selling a fake bag on here! A Tylie Malibu bag-not a huge designer. I literally lost it-nothing is more disrespectful to me on here than being accused of selling fakes. I was livid! In the end, it was total buyers remorse and Posh sided with me. If you look at my sold listings at the black Tylie bag you can see the drama. 😁
andine
Wow. At least Poshmark can help make it right!! I had another Tiffany bracelet that was (I think) fake and confronted the seller, nicely, about it. She was very upset, started posting on various listings, getting other buyers of hers to tag me...I was very new to Posh and nearly shut my closet down...I don't like drama! I told her we could agree to disagree and I ate the $100+ for the bracelet. Another time I got a Tory Burch wrap bracelet and had been assured it was real. But there was no "made in USA" stamped inside, all my others have that. I asked her and she said it's a dark brown leather so you just probably can't see it. I let it go. There is clearly no stamp. I guess just 4 fakes in all the purchases I've made is a good record. I've heard of others getting a lot of fakes. The more questions, the more research you do ahead the better, right?! I also have no problem blocking. Once I get a fake, that's it. I don't want to see the rest. 😉
susansupernova
@andine amen to blocking! There are some crazy people on here that will spam all your other listings if you call them out on their nasty fakes. On eBay you can't do that, which is nice. But on here it's a different story. Posh needs to look into a way for sellers to remove harassing posts. And they need to get their asses in gear and really crack down on all these counterfeits. It's bad! 😡
gabby0704
I'm guilty of this. I have this chanel inspired handbag my aunt have me and I just wanna get rid of it. I wanna sell it because it's a nice bag but I just feel terrible doing it. It's FAKE! Do you think I should sell on here or throw it away?
marymary83
Amen sister! I'm so against fakes!! I read an article a while back about counterfeit bags and made me even more disgusted. I feel like if you can't afford it don't buy a fake to pass it off
susansupernova
@gabby0704 Hi dear! Oh that does happen-sometimes we just end up with counterfeit goods. As far as getting rid of it goes, on Posh, counterfeits are not allowed. Believe me there are plenty on here tho! So many I can imagine its hard for them to keep up with deleting listings. Same goes for other selling venues. If your bag however is just "inspired"-that's a different story. To be an inspired bag (or any inspired item), the bag may looks in style like the real thing but it may 💥NOT💥not have any labeling or tags or logos from the designer. If this is the case with your bag, you can sell it as long as you make no reference at all to the designer that inspired it in your listing, and you let people know up front that it is inspired, you can sell it. If it does have logos or labeling, in any shape or form, then it is an illegal replica, and cannot be sold. You could donate it 🌸
susansupernova
@marymary83 😊 I totally agree dear!!! Thanks for posting! 🌺🌸
gabby0704
Thanks for the info !!!!! 👍👍
lmpasternack
@susanleeyogi I completely, absolutely agree with every word! It is ridiculous to use the word "inspired" to try to sell a FAKE designer ANYTHING! People just don't realize they are breaking the law. I always report the inspired listings. Posh doesn't usually do a thing, which I find sad.
susansupernova
@lmpasternack I report them too-sometimes people just don't know, and it's a one-off thing. I usually kindly let them know. No big deal. But when I see them widespread thru someone's closet, that's a major problem. The worst ones are the Christian Louboutin fakes. Nasty nasty nasty. 😡😡😡😡
rskrod
Does Posh have a special username that you can tag and report fakes to?
susansupernova
@rskrod I wish! That would be a great idea-but no😡 all you can do is report the listing. Typically they won't do anything at all. But what I will do if I see anyone that I know who might be interested in a fake on here, I will message them in their closet and warn them of the fake item.
rskrod
Good idea!! Also we could all get together and try to expose these people by at least speaking out. 😉
rskrod
Obvi you're doing that which is awesome. But we should also call them out in their posts - but I guess it could get fugly!?
susansupernova
@rskrod when you call people out on their fake items,it does get ugly at times, and some people honestly don't know. If I see they genuinely don't know, I will let them know gently that their item is counterfeit because of many reasons. The ones that do know however, report report report! 😊
susansupernova
@djparrish01 I completely agree. All I can do is what you mentioned above, and I post listings that are FYI for others to help them when identifying. If anyone I know needs help with Kate Spade I will definitely look you up!!!
gabby0704
@djparrish01 Thanks! I actually did keep it and used it as a prop for an art piece inspired by chanel ;)
janineabean
Loveeeee this. Think it's so great you make yourself available to assist on identifying fakes. I recently got blocked from someones closet for asking too many questions on a bag, geez! Makes me wonder what I was dealing with. Anyway, I've always objected to knock offs, for the same reasons you've listed, not to mention it makes ppl working for the real designers job harder and more at risk. Keep up the awesome support :)
shamalban
All very good reasons to NOT support replicas/fake. They also support terrorist organizations. The worst thing (in my opinion) is that our culture of "keeping up with the Jones'" invalidates all those reasons. People who know those things continue to buy the fakes because it's more important for others to think they can afford the real thing. Makes me sad. 😞
susansupernova
@shamalban completely agree! Things are just "things". And if one can't afford a high ticket "thing", it's ok to find another authentic "thing" that works with your budget! 😁❤️

@envy04 not enough pictures to authenticate-and there are some warning signs about it.....

@susanleeyogi Thank You. I will ask for additional pictures.
susansupernova
@envy04 im not saying its fake just need to see up close of the back of the leather tag, up close of the front of the leather tag, up close of the shoulder strap hardware (bale and clip). This looks to be Rose Thulian.

@susanleeyogi Thanks, I appreciate the info.

@susanleeyogi Good morning! Would you mind taking a look at the additional pics she posted of the Balenciaga?
lula44

susansupernova
@lula44 thanks for the tag honey! Her pics aren't that great-I tagged @augustpinkstyle on the listing too because she's a good eye for counterfeits as well. I won't be able to really see until I am on my desktop. Ask her tho what size they are euro. That will help in determining their fit❤️

mauishopgirl
Amen! Counterfeits fund some awful people doing awful things. It's a big deal and more need to take it seriously. If one can't afford a luxury bag, there are so many cute, affordable and well made bags out there.

@mauishopgirl right! And not just bags-but anything really!

susansupernova
@thephylicia007 isn't that one priceless? 😱😜
jaaayneey
I myself don't support replicas/fakes. Not they only look cheap but they are ruining the designers name. I mean, if you can't afford the real thing why not save and get the real one since you're already spending money on it right? I love this post of yours! Wish all the sellers says no to counterfeit items!!! I often find replicas around here which makes poshmark ugly :/
susansupernova
@jaaayneey thanks dear! I think honestly that everyone should find a style that suits their personal self and budget-if something isn't in your budget, it's ok! Find something that does 😊 counterfeits in any form are wrong in so many ways. All I can do on here is report those that are and hope Poshmark does the right thing ❤️
susansupernova
@italia screen shot her closet storefront and email posh support. Also report her. I am doing that right now. Thank you for the heads up!

crystals_resale
When my husband goes shopping with me I'm always in his ear saying that's real or that's fake. Then the other day a lady came into his work with a coach purse and he said he wondered if it was real or fake. I get a text and he said women your I'm my head with these real or fake purses. Lol
susansupernova
@cweidman hah! Love it! For my hubby it's not the bags it's the fit issues with clothes. He notices VPL and bad fitting bras and poor fit in general (muffin tops and biscuit bottoms) and he can tell immediately if a woman's shoes hurt her lol 😜😁 that's me saying "oh goodness my dear-if I could be your style mentor" followed by the issue 😘😜😜
susansupernova
@alise28 right there with you! I'm not a logo wearer at all. If I'm displaying their logo they should be paying me! Lol! 😝
I would rather have something handcrafted, gently carried or "indie brand" if my budget didn't allow for brand new designer. The bags in my current small collection are my lifetime keepers, trends be damned. I think one of the main reasons fakes flourish is because people want to have the "bag of the moment" yet their budget doesn't allow that, so they go the fake route without thinking about all the negativities that shroud counterfeit goods. 😣
susansupernova
@dawnsfinallywed my eyes are burning! Eek! Horrid! reported and blocked xx thanks lovely for the heads up!!
gwperry
@susanleeyogi I would NEVER buy fake! I'd go without first!! I didn't know you authenticate!! Wow 😚. I don't want to go into too much here but I may need your services soon on a larger scale. 😉 I'd be happy to compensate.
susansupernova
@gwperry I am glad to hear that-but I could already tell you aren't one to buy those nasties! If I can't help I know others who can definitely. Let me know! ❤️❤️
susansupernova
@miller81 ah that stinks!!!! Glad you were refunded. Posh is pretty good about that. Many sellers honestly have no clue, but then many do. Its usually the ones that know they have fakes that get all pissy when they are called out on it.
susansupernova
@miller81 I spied in your closet but didnt see the comment. If you want to post her user name here without the @ sign in front I can go look and then caution others.

susansupernova
@immandyrenee hi dear! Im not versed on LV but I know there are plenty on here who are good about authenticating them. I am sure if fakers can fake an entire purse then they sure wouldnt have trouble faking a serial number!

@susanleeyogi Hi sweetie...May I ask you to take a look at my Balenciaga City bag? It was bought a long time ago and Im not sure anymore:/ can you email me? I can send you pics? I would be happy to pay for your services...Thank You so much!! Katzdomain@gmail.com

peteandlucy
@realfaux and the rest of u ladies. I've seen a bunch of Tory Burch from some sellers where they have tons new with tags here & on tradesy I worry that these r fakes how can I authenticate? I'm able to get a lot of Tory things because my daughter goes to college where the TB outlet is. So I get, enjoy a while then sell to get more lol
realfaux
@peteandlucy I can't say anything about TB from experience because I've never owned a piece from the brand, but I'd just say to submit your items to AuthenticateFirst.com or a similar site. You can get your items authenticated for $15. Just make sure to pay through Posh, 🅿️🅿️ inv (very good service, I've gotten my money back many times) or e Bay. If anything goes wrong, you are always protected. Signs of counterfeit bags are usually obvious as well. The material will feel worse in quality immediately and small details will help identify as well. You can visit forums online where women compare their real and fake bags :)
susansupernova
@realfaux @peteandlucy I second what Gabrielle says-go to a reputable site and provide plenty of pictures. I have not owned any TB so I cant be of much help in that brand. Also now on Posh if the item you buy is 500 or over, the seller needs to send it to poshmark authenticators. They will double check the bag and see if there are any issues. I hope they have some qualified staff-there are plenty of fakes on Posh sadly :-(
peteandlucy
@susanleeyogi@missjenny2679 I can usually loon at the crest or emblems and spot a fake TB. Is it the same with most other brands?
balgal2
Unfortunately there are so many fakes here on posh
Does posh actually remove the fake listing?
susansupernova
@balgal2 I report all the time-now they do offer an authentication service to all purchases over 500 for designers. Sometimes they remove, sometimes they dont. its unfortunate.

Hi Susan yay it looks like the fake got removed. Thanks for everything you do😊

@balgal2 either it was removed by posh or she deleted it. I was very straightforward about how counterfeits aren't allowed and she risked being banned if she kept it listed 💙

Actually it's in the closet in the comment right before mine. I read the comments and I guess it would be weird if it wasn't real. Lol! She has a jewerly pouch and a cosmetic pouch. I asked if it was real and haven't Received a reply yet. Thank you!🌺
susansupernova
@jgajewski yep it's real! Those were gifts that came with perfume I think? 💙💙
jgajewski
Thank you sooo much! I really appreciate it!!💜💜

I'm calling on your expertise one more time if I may! Promise I won't bug you anymore! Lol! Going to tag the listing now. Thank you so much in advance! I asked for extra pictures but they haven't been sent to me yet. I did just send her the message though.☺️🌺

@susanleeyogi - wish Posh Concierge covered all items. Isn't it only up to $500? I search "Balenciaga" all the time and a plethora of FAKE bags pop up. They are still there after I report again & again as well. At least we can warn buyers too!! There are enough of us that can give our "opinion" and help with the bags that are "better" yet awful, counterfeits.
susansupernova
@dellamoore yes I wish they did too! Many onlinesale sites fail to take down counterfeits-Ive reported so many. Some have been thankfully removed, others have not. All you can do is send customer service an email with the listing and hope they respond. Keep on reporting!!

Hi. I don't know if you can help me. But I have a twiggy and I am not sure of the color and year. I asked on tpf and the person that answered wasn't 100% sure. Do you have a lot of knowledge on the years and colors? If not, thank you anyways. :)
susansupernova
@kschock I can try! Post pics and I'll help
kschock
@susanleeyogi thank you! I will add some pictures tomorrow. :)
tiffcake
I hate when someone says "excellent quality" inspired shoe when it's really a counterfeit (inspired shoes carry their own brand and don't try to pass themselves off as the original designer) The shoes are imported from overseas and are manufactured by CHILDREN! I'd rather pay a fortune for something made by someone making a living wage than $150 for a knock-off where an exploited person makes about a third of a single dollar and the rest is pocketed by a$$hats! 😡
jntsnv702
@susanleeyogi hi there I love your Dr Marten calf hair boots. And I don't want to be rude to offer too low on pricing. Not sure what is the right offer. Could you please tell me what is your best price thanks
susansupernova
@jntsnv702 what price were you thinking?
susansupernova
@tiffcake YES!! Preach sister!!!
jntsnv702
@susanleeyogi hi there, I was thinking about $100. Don't mean to be rude or low balling. Thanks.
susansupernova
@jntsnv702 I understand-but yeah way too low. I paid more than that for them.
jntsnv702
@susanleeyogi yes that's why I ask what is your best price
susansupernova
@jntsnv702 my lowest now would be 200. Posh takes too much % wise for me to go any lower and have it sit well with me.
jntsnv702
@susanleeyogi would you sell it on tradesy ? They charge less

@lucabrasi_ @kristina1975 if you two want to carry fakes then more power to you. Most people do not know that fakes are usually made in factories with slave or child labor and find terrorist groups. So if you feel in your hearts that carrying a fake is a positive choice, that's yours to make.
susansupernova
@kristina1975 grow up and get over yourself dear. If you don't like this post then don't comment. I'm sure we are all going to do fine without hearing your ignorant input. Best of luck to you doll.
nangrami
I appreciate that @susanleeyogi pointed out that fakes are made with child labor and fund terrorist groups. The argument that not everyone can afford designer does not excuse buying the knock off. It does not excuse the choice to financially support child labor and terrorist groups that blow up thousands and burn people alive.
nangrami
If you don't have the money to buy the real one then you don't buy it at all. Not the idea, not the style...none of it cuz you can't afford it and it perfectly fine to not be able to afford it. So pretending like you can afford it by funding evil is a sad joke. Why would anyone want to be caught in that web? Thank you for awesome post @susanleeyogi
nangrami
The true beauty of a free market society is that there are hundreds and hundreds of hand bags available to us at every price point imaginable. No one needs to feel as though they should get a fake of something they don't have the budget for when there is something real and not replicated already in their financial capacity. Our only truth is our authenticity
nangrami
It can be easy to think to ourselves that our simple actions, like buying a fake bag, dosent really have a huge impact. After all, it's just one little bag right? Like one drop of rain in the ocean. But isn't the ocean just an enormous multitude of drops? All of our drops add up
nangrami
In conclusion! lol! The beautiful closet of the beautiful @susanleeyogi remains my favorite for its focus on being fabulous and genuine❤️❤️❤️
susansupernova
@mangrami love you so much Mama! Some people are just too thick to even try to explain things like this too. May they live happily with themselves 😜

Can you please contact me on jacklaurence25 @ gmail.com to discuss this sale?. I am interested and can make the purchase today but have a few inquiry to make first. email me Asap. Thanks.
susansupernova
@jackw23142 I do not deal off poshmark so any inquiries must be made here.
zinfandel555
I sent an. Email to copyright to warn about. A fake Balenciaga that the seller keeps saying she's getting an authenticity certificate for. It's so obviously fake. I hate to see that it sold. Will poshmark intercede after the sale? I listed and documented the the numerous issues with the bag. I wanted to warn the buyer, but I didn't know if you are allowed to do that. Nothing upsets me more than liars about fake bags , and people losing money on this garbage.
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 good for you! I always screenshot fakes and email poshmark directly about them. Big them enough and they are bound to respond! Fakes have no place in this world. Period. 😡

Anyone seeing counterfeit products, please go to tips.fbi.gov and report it. They investigate all tips and will prosecute the sellers, and can prosecute the buyers if they willingly purchase counterfeit goods. One selling fake Louis Vitton here is panora214, her descriptions don't list them as fake but she admits they are in the comments. She just sold one and has been reported not only to Posh but also the FBI
jodisjewelry
@shay6729 @anniev67. It is a crime to sell OR buy knowingly fake / counterfeit goods, in a store or online. The person from whom you have recently purchased is being investigated by the FBI, do you really want to be dragged into this? I would kindly suggest you cancel your purchase, and if you can't cancel it, contact Posh to cancel based upon it being counterfeit.

@mlaferte 😘 that means so much! Thank you again 😍 and we could all do without those miserable cows right? 😜😜😜
jodisjewelry
Forgot to mention, panora214 has a friend who also sells fakes, and they make fun of anyone asking questions. She is nana604. They gave Marie a hard time for asking questions and they both should be eyed closely...
jodisjewelry
What is funny is in panora's closet, right next to obviously fake LV items, she has *Authentic* Coach listed... Yeah, so if you're selling several fake items n not disclosing it, I'm definitely going to believe it when you say "Authentic"... ?!? Can you tell me more about that oceanfront property in Arizona you're selling?!? 😂😂
jodisjewelry
May I copy this and post this in my closet?!? I will give you the credit, of course

zinfandel555
Mendozajenn is selling a fake 04 C tag first. Wants trades , so as to avoid authentication, I fear. There was no light blue made in spring summer 04 C tag. The 925 symbol is too large, the shape of the first is off and odd, the bales are hidden in the photo of shoulder strap. There are other telltale signs. I tried to kindly inform her, assuming she was unaware. She stared swearing at me, someone look at this please who is familiar with older bags
zinfandel555
She wants trades, someone may trade a real bag for this fake. I fear. I I formed another seller once, and they were very appreciative, and removed the listing. I was very kind about it. The colors released each season are documented online, especially at the purseforum, and I collect bags from 04. This is a fake. She had all the comments removed and relisted.
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 she's been reported-big time nasty fake. So many things wrong with it. Yuck.
zinfandel555
She posted the additional pics I asked for, just as I thought, blue thread across top of tag, not black which would be correct, straight bales, not curved as they should be, huge oversized 925 symbol. It's so fake it's stunning.
zinfandel555
Something should be done
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 just report often!! Report and take screenshots and email!!
zinfandel555
Mendozajenn@lld Wow, you posted the detailed photos that prove it's fake. All balenciaga have black thread across the top, anyone can look at many of the other bags here that are real and see that. The bales straight, not curved as they should be, the font is wrong, and Balenciaga never made a light blue in spring summer 2004 season, which is what the C on the tag indicates. The 925 symbol is oversized, the bag is fake, no doubt
zinfandel555
Mendozajenn you have no excuse, and then you curse at me and try to go hood and break bad? With a cheap fake? Classy. I'm not going to sully this thread cursing you out in return, though you did do an amateur job. When the fake listing is removed, I guess you'll finally be exposed as trying to pass off a fake to someone for a real bag. Sad. Hope your other vagus are real, who knows? Sad. Buy a real bag.
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 she can't comment on here-I have her blocked 😀

@zinfandel555 ?? I don't own a Balenziaga, why did u tag me??? An error I assume , please delete any comments referencing me or my closet . Thank you

@zinfandel555 you can't. Just tag the lady you accidentally tagged and apologize 😍 no big deal

Hi! I also saw about your love for turquoise and was wondering if you could give me some tips on spotting real turquoise and silver vs fake?
zinfandel555
Cowgirlup141, do you mean turquoise 05 the most famous, or 04. And do you mean silver tags vs fake tags?
zinfandel555
Someone else needs to warn another potential trader about mendoza's fake balenciaga light blue bag. I hear it will be removed soon, but maybe not soon enough, and I am blocked
zinfandel555
I just had a nut job call me names because I asked for more pics needed to authenticate, said really Nasty things. Poshmark just leaves the comments there even though I keep reporting and emailing. All I did was ask for pics. What should I do? I have refrained from responding in kind, but I'm tempted to
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 don't worry about it-it looks bad on them if they went off on you like that!
zinfandel555
I keep reporting it, and emailing, but it hadn't been removed. This is ridiculous . She's nuts. I wish someone else would tell her she's wrong to do that. I've tried to help so many in my short time here avoid fake bags, and bought from @centerfoldvault. She's a great seller! The best!
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 who is it?
gasolineglam
The selling of counterfeit items if a federal offense. There have actually been companies that come after sellers for doing so. There was a man a few towns away from me who made thousands selling counterfeit handbags at a local flea market. Someone reported him and he is still sitting in prison. This post is great!
gasolineglam
@spadoni57 is an authenticator for Poshmark if you ever happen to need help or know anyone who needs help authenticating Chanel.

Mmforrester traded for that blue balenciaga . Shame, I tried to warn poshmark everyway I could , and I know you reported it too susanleeyogi. This is just what I was afraid of, and obvious fake going out despite all warnings, and all pics. My lord, blue thread across the top of tag? Huge 925, square bales, color never made with that year? What more do people need to see?
zinfandel555
Fitandchic. Too bad she deleted the initial exchange claiming she sold the bag, you would see where all I did was ask for pics, which you need several of with an oldie, even the rivets, bales, buckles, etc. any real seller shouldn't mind posting all pics required to authenticate. Reign asked for some more pics too and she went ballistic.
zinfandel555
The bag is one that is widely faked though, so you have to be extra careful. The older ones are usually not conterfeited so well, but the emerald 03 was.
http://forum.purseblog.com/balenciaga-reference-library/psa-quiz-can-you-tell-the-real-deal-269946.html
All I asked for were pics, could have been real, hadnt determined yet. She shouldn't be allowed to attack someone for no reason.
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 I wouldn't take it too personally. There are plenty of nice people on here that have authentic items. Just report the fakes and move on 💚
zinfandel555
I guess that's all we can do . You're so kind. I scored a 04 city that's crazy mint condition recently, my oldies are stacking up! Man, they are hard to find. Do you have a large bal collection?
zinfandel555
What do you know? Fitandchic left, or was kicked out for her insults. Great! Now if only the poor girl who traded for the fake blue mendozajenn bag could be warned. But, I gave t sent her a message, or put @ in front of her name,...that alerts people right? I'm staying out of this. I did what I could.
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 perfect! 😁💚 I used to have a huge collection-but my life path changed and my need for such a grand collection went out the window. So I sold all but one 💙 my prized 05 Black Twiggy. I've also kept my 3 Moto jackets-can't get rid of those!!
zinfandel555
Ah 05....the majority of my collection are the rarest of 05s...what a year. That twiggy must be butter

Well she took the news well so far, that's good. I may have to keep warning people,I can't stand seeing people lose their hard Earned money on this stuff
zinfandel555
@kiaf Poshmark encourages members to report fakes. If someone is supposed to buy through pics, why wouldn't they determine authenticity through pics? It's clearly a replica. You shouldn't be offended, you said you don't know, most members welcome assistance from those familiar with the brand. Blocking me won't matter
fakepolice
It kills me to see people selling fake replicas and getting away with it to. There are a few Victoria secret sellers selling fake totes blankets and towels and buyers DONT EVEN KNOW It. Even after they receive the item. What can we do to stop these fraudsters!!

Black or grey
susansupernova
@jkdressler do you like the size of your Balenciaga that you got from me? And Have you ever looked at Mulberry bags?
jkdressler
I actually need something a little bigger for an everyday bag. I do like Mulberry!
susansupernova
@jkdressler look at the Mulberry Roxanne style and tell me what you think....😍
jkdressler
I do like it! But I think it would have to be the black pebbled leather or close to that look bc it's edgier than some of the other textures, which look a little more cleaner.

I just purchased a FAKE Michael Kors and frankly Im disgusted with the, "I got it as a gift," line! Its ILLEGAL. PERIOD. It's 100% true.. These FAKES Fund Terrorist Groups, Child traffickers, Drug Cartels, and more, especially in Mexico and CHINA.. Stop buying them, stop selling them. Because the Feds dont care if you got it "as a gift".. Ignorance is no excuse for the law!

@clarelyell it doesn't matter that you blocked me. The bag is fake and will be removed again. You risk being able to sell on poshmark at all.
I was going to post a link to the bag here, so others could chime in that know balenciaga, so,that they could also tell you it's a fake, that was removed, and you relisted, but it looks like it was removed again. I know older Bals....it is fake.
zinfandel555
But poshmark moved fast on this listing, and removed it. Kudos to them. They know I know what I'm talking about.
zinfandel555
If a black c tag city gets relisted ladies keep an eye out, I don't want someone to loose $300 on a fake.
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 looks like she sold it
zinfandel555
Damn! I reported it and she relisted. I thought they removed it again. I will have to warn buyer. I hate to see that. Susanleeyogi , it's a bad fake. Isn't it. The tag is terrible.
zinfandel555
I tell posh, hopefully they will refund buyer
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 yup that's a nasty one! 🙈
zinfandel555
@madimurph1 if you bought the black Balenciaga, it's a replica, fake. The tag font is wrong, poorly stamped , poorly stitched. The buckles and studs aren't right. The 925 symbol isn't correct

@smdownes90 if you bought black Balenciaga city, it's fake, see my post above of why.
I hope the buyer gets their money back. That's the best I can do.

There are a few others, like that close up of green first , that are fake , I need to rest, then report! I should have learned to type...Hee Hee. I guess there's going to be a bit of a tiff here soon...sorry @susanleeyogi I hope it's okay to use your thread to report fakes when the seller blocks me. I was nice about it too . The last three were cool, and thanked me and removed.
But then they sell elsewhere sometimes. Shame .

@zinfandel555 reported! Nasty nasty!
neverandever
@zinfandel555 I was looking at clarelyell's bag and was thinking about it (would have been my first Bal & I knew I could get it authenticated before I accepted if I wasn't 100%) but something about the font of the silver tag and the bale shape kept nagging at me so I passed. Then I saw your comments and was glad I did - saved me a lot of time and hassle. Thank you 😊 Someone did buy it, you can see her commenting to the buyer in the listing.
zinfandel555
@susanleeyogi please go to the green first listing and tell this loon @customized4u that her bag is fake. She actual claims to have had a bag for 15 years that was released 12 years ago. It's insane, an posh is obviously on holiday or something since they are taking longer to remove fakes than usual. This is insane.
zinfandel555
@neverandever you are welcome. I try to help. I'm glad you at least weren't fooled. Drop an email to copyright@ poshmark to warn them someone bought a fake. The more people that help others , the better!
zinfandel555
@clarelyell you fake sale won't go through. I'll see to that.
zinfandel555
@customized4u so we see, listing removed . Fake as a three dollar bill. You are impossible to deal with. I tried to be nice. You called me a dog. You should be removed from site, your story changed with each post you made as you sank like quicksand.
liloprag
Question since I'm new to Poshmark what happens if you buy something and use the Concierge Service and the item is found not be authentic ..... Do they still send it to you or do they send the item back to the seller ?
susansupernova
@liloprag as far as I know they send it right back to the seller and refund the buyer. At least I hope they do! That's the right thing to do. Personally I would destroy the item (I know in the past this has occurred on other sites) but I doubt they do that.
zinfandel555
@susanleeyogi hey lovely, Do you have any other older bags you would consider selling, or know anyone who is selling some? I'm looking for a red 03 or 04 city, a 04 dark turquoise city or first, , 03 pewter hardware blue jean ( it's a light denim color) city or first, 03 pewter hardware dark caramel, or light caramel city,,03 lilac city , 03 emerald first,...pretty much any pewter hardware bags, condition isn't a huge deal as long as they aren't trashed. Also 04 eggplant.

@mmforrester blocking me makes no difference, that bag was never authenticated. The shape,is wrong, the font on tag is wrong, the color is no where near turquoise of 04, which is supposed to be a lighter color. It's just all wrong in every way. Who authenticated it?
Pleas get that fake bag off Poshmark and save your reputation as a seller. Don't just make up,things to justify.

@mmforrester why lie? No need for that . That bag wasn't authenticated?
@susanleeyogi it really helps to comment so,buyers can see and be warned about these sellers. Thank! I'm no good at part times, since I don't collect them, and never gained expertise In those. I really need to take time, and go down ll the listings, there aren't too many. So many fakes, you're right, and we could, really save some people a lot of trouble,...I wish I had time to log in more often. You're the best!

That burgundy is bad! Good grief!

@cdjunnhsf I have no idea what you are rambling on about. I have no idea who you are, and have never had any contact with you before.
You were selling a counterfeit Balenciaga bag. It was clearly a fake, and I know what I'm talking about. That's why it was removed. All your listings are being reviewed,Was it worth lying about having the bag authenticated? I hope so.

@cjdunnhsf I wasn't the only member that reported your fake Balenciaga. Blocking me simply confirms that you are a questionable seller that does not want qualified members to review the authenticity of your items. Sellers that aren't trying to pass off fake goods welcome scrutiny, and don't have any problem with their items being reviewed.
zinfandel555
@ susanleeyogi hey, I've let some friends know that you're adept at spotting Bal fakes
;)
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 I would just drop it with that seller-don't get yourself banned for something like that. 💙
zinfandel555
@susanleeyogi oh I don't think that will happen, though I appreciate your concern. When I can be here, I'm committed to pointing out fakes and suspicuois sellers...and let's just include a wink... ;)
susansupernova
@zinfandel555 wink wink! 😉
zinfandel555
@susanleeyogi wink wink wink you're quick on the pick up! And good at spotting fakes! :) sigh. I really need to go through all the listings...I am strong in oldies...are you good at the newer bags?
zinfandel555
@bagriculture good luck with that. My concerns have also been brought to their attention. No front tag pics, blurry photos , and a myriad of other issues. You've had amble opportunity to post tag photos, up close, pics of the bales and rivets, and the other things any qualified autheticator looks for,on a balenciaga handbag.
zinfandel555
@ blocking me means little other than you have time for that but no time to post decent photos necessary for authentication.

@susanleeyogi see what I mean about @bagriculture....they are saying that green bag with the distended handles they are seedlings is a classic first??? IF the don't know the basic names of the styles, how can they claim to be qualified to authenticate..does that look like a classic first to Susan

@zinfandel555 it's a mini twiggy. Those handles look bad too. 😖
zinfandel555
@susanleeyogi thats my point, they blocked me, maybe you could make the point that they don't even know what styles they are posting...how can they possibly be authenticating them ? They can't tell the differences between a first and a mini twiggy? And I took a screen shot so they can't claim that it was listed correctly once they change it.

I totally agree. Maybe at a glance someone could not tell it's a fake, my in my heart ❤️ I would know!!! I only buy originals
zinfandel555
@gojoie I hope I didn't offend you. I only said what I did out of concern . If it's not too late, since you got the bag...not sure how long it's been but please contact copyright at poshmark and mention that I said it was a fake,and see if you can return. Believe me, and I be happy to write a detailed explanation, that bag is a fake no question. @ susanleeyogi is also an expert. I specialize in pre 07 Bals, and have many.
zinfandel555
I authenticate here aggressively for a reason.
gojoie
@zinfandel555 thank you. I spoke to her already and she will @cjdunnhsf replace it. I think she also got it from a fellow posher. As what I've said it's just a matter of trust. I respect your opinion. I don't want any drama. I just want to sell and make friends. Just wondering r u new in posh or posh suspended your account?. Just wondering how did you know @emmamaren and @cjdunnhsf .
zinfandel555
@gojoie I don't know emmamaren at all. . I ran Into cdjunnhsf over another fake she had before. Just total denial after all the facts were presented. Some sell fakes by accident, some on purpose. Almost everyone I inform that their bag isn't real is grateful and nice about it, and take it down.
zinfandel555
Those that get nasty and block me I suspect know.. I don't sell bags, so no one can claim I'm advancing an agenda. I only help ladies when I'm absolutely sure, and I only do older bags, which are the better bags anyway.
zinfandel555
I buy clothes on occasion, and I've never been suspended. Wouldn't happen :)
gojoie
Hi @zinfandel555 again thank you for the help and concern. I spoke to her @cjdunnhsf and she promised me that she will replace it with Prada bag. She's out for vacation. Hope that everything will be ok. I know it will 😊
zinfandel555
@cjdunnhsf you've been caught selling fake Bals. I want the only member that reported you before. I just hope you don't give @gojoie a replica prada. That's why that other fake Bals of yours was removed. I don't know you, and I've only come across you when I was reviewing Bals for authenticity.
zinfandel555
@cjdunnhsf You are the one who is disrespectful and defensive, which is more telling than anything else you know what you're passing off. And I will continue to report and older fake bags I see from you or anyone else.
zinfandel555
@racheleee you know that bag is fake.blocking me doesn't stop others from calling it out and reporting it, the font is wrong, the bag is awful fake.
zinfandel555
@susanleeyogi go to racheleee closet and look at the fake bal she's relisted three times since it's been removed and warn the members looking at it, she's blocked me. I swear, this should get you banned as a seller, relisting a removed item, I am disappointed in @poshmark if they don't enforce removing these sellers
style_guyd
It's trashy, honestly.
susansupernova
@nicholasnyc agreed!

Hi everyone please check my latest listing for Gucci shoes I just bought I need to advise if it's authentic or not! Thank you
closetobsessor
There is a woman selling a fake Balenciaga. She sold it once and when the buyer received it she (the buyer) called her out on it being fake. Now the woman has the bag relisted again! I have reported this listing many times and it hasn't been taken down. Very frustrating when I'm trying to sell an authentic bal almost the same color as her gross fake. If anyone wants to check it out and report the listing that would be awesome. The seller is drbradynelson

BEST. POST. EVER. Preach! 🙌🏻 I seriously don’t understand why ppl would buy counterfeit- it’s not only degrading, but also like throwing money down the drain. I ❤️the 2nd pic 😂 when I see someone with a fake Chanel, LV or fake Birkin (god-forbid)- 🙄 Bottom-line: Real Ladies don’t like fake, buy them or wear them & we certainly do not support them. (Selling/buying) Only fake people wear fake. 😏

Bravo Posh Ladies! 👏👏👏
I have a listing that I created in my closet. It is disturbing to see rampant Listings of counterfeit designer items here! I use it when commenting on the fakes....
#KEEPITPOSH
I typically get called nasty names and get blocked.
The quintessential heinous findings are Posh Ambassadors with non-compliant closets. And the
Phoney PA'S who clearly are not! Infuriating when nothing is done about it!!!!! #KEEPITPOSH

The Gucci replicas have gotten totally out of control. The thing that drives me nuts is it’s hurting market prices. Buyer’s see replica prices & think it’s the norm, so I end up competing with their prices. Also it’s washing-up the brand 😩 They lose their magic. I’ve lost interest in several items I was planning to buy, because I see the reps everywhere. It discredits & devalues the brand

I got caught by a pm counterfeiter 🤦🏾♀️ 🤦🏾♀️ getting my money back was a hassle to say the least

@clrdgrlshffl oh no what happened?!
wtfyougoton
@susanleeyogi fake Versace shoes!! Pictures, hardware, hand tag with CLG were on point EXCEPT I forgot to ask for pictures of the soles. Get the shoes and I swear they were plastic soles with a really bad Medusa head engraved in it. 😢😢😢 I paid used Versace prices too. PM was helpful and got it resolved. Just took awhile...Never again!
susansupernova
@clrdgrlshffl oh goodness! So glad you got your money back! What a headache! Sellers that do this are just so wrong on so many levels.
mlb6992
"Inspired", "high quality", "price reflects" are all annoying besides the ones who blatantly lie. What kills me is replica sellers who tscam replica buyers...300-400$ for A FAKE?! Especially the horribly obvious fake multicolore LV's that we're $40 China town knock offs in 2005, and now being sold 3x the price as mirror image replicas 😂
susansupernova
@mlb6992 I completely agree! Was recently at the airport going thru customs and witnessed officers cutting up 200+ nasty fake bags from China that a person tried to smuggle through saying they were “gifts” 🤣 too bad they can’t catch them all!
mlb6992
@susanleeyogi That's crazy! But that puts it in perspective how illegal this actually is, and how it's been so watered down into no big deal for most people! I have a few knock offs from a long time ago, and 4 authentic Louis Vuitton's now. I'd love to put up a picture side by side to show people how different the monograms, colors, materials and interiors are.
susansupernova
@mlb6992 you should! It is so helpful to inform people who cannot see the real things in stores near them to compare.
mlb6992
@susanleeyogi I will! I thought most fakes were horribly obvious, but I see a lot of them being sold for hundreds of dollars in terrible pre owned condition...the way that fake leather shreds apart on handles and straps should be a big sign. But if people are new collectors and aren't familiar with how high end bags age, I guess there's no way to know better!
kryshell
@zippy14u exactly.
supremegoods180
Does posh ask you and others like you to validate authenticity? I ask since, I feel like they don’t have a legitimate authentication team and rather ask individuals they feel should know as in people who have been here or may have sold the most items not necessarily having knowledge on urban brands or all high end things mainly as in the men’s departments and urban and “hype” items such as supreme, off white, vlone, and other brands in that category.
supremegoods180
@mlb6992 MK doesn’t count..no way to tell I guess. Right?
susansupernova
@supremegoods180 I think they definitely should. I don’t claim to be an expert but I can tell most fakes from certain brands. There’s a ton of knowledge out there that is definitely underutilized !
supremegoods180
@susanleeyogi no I understand I was just wondering thank you that’s what I thought was happening I was victim to this although it wasn’t over fake a buyer did not read a description a return was granted to them I recieved my shoes back with holes in them and posh refuses to address that issue I put in a claim the day I recieved them back.
susansupernova
@supremegoods180 oh no that’s terrible!! They need to rectify that immediately! I would be pestering them to no end!

I'm interested in a used Balenciaga bag, it's priced less than $500.00(so no posh authentication) I'm not really sure how to tell if it's authentic. Was hoping for some help/insight! 💋 I'm a pro when it comes to Coach. But it ends there for the most part! Lol
sunny519
@susansupernova I can't agree with you more about fakes; I am so tired of seeing them on here, reporting them, and Posh doing nothing! I have emailed them about specific (Balenciaga) bags, but the seller is allowed to relist, no prob. (Check out @jonersisblessed, who, besides being blessed with a nasty attitude, has been trying to unload the ugliest fake for $1250!)
susansupernova
@sunny519 i feel you! I report all the time and they rarely do anything. And that is one ugly fake she has listed :O
sunny519
Can we also start a thread about people that steal pics from legit sites and use them as their own? @gideon1234 just copies listing from Yoogi's, but prices the items hundreds more than Yoogi's is asking! (In particular, the white Bal G21 Work & the Automne Brogues Work; and that's just Balenciaga stuff!)
susansupernova
@sunny519 ugh that stinks. I understand using stock images to maybe highlight your listing but just taking photos of an identical product and posting them as the one you have for sale is shady. Buyer beware! I always ask for more photos. Always always.
sunny519
What do we do about sellers that 100% steal another's listing, pics, wording and all? Check out Mydesignerly's closet and then check out Fashionphile's outlet page. SAME bags, but they jacked up the prices. Poshmark could care less. "Report it." But *how* if there's no way to report this type of theft?

@susansupernova I am weary of anyone displaying proudly their fake items, I stopped getting friendly with a business acquaintance that boasted her visit to China and came back with - as per her - the most accurate fake versions of Gucci, Chanel and Tiffany’s items ... I realized that this person truly was lacking integrity at the most superficial level and that made me wonder about her honesty in business ... it was a great life lesson
susansupernova
@hermesvancleef yes! This! I am right there with you
