I've worked with sunglasses for a very long time and am fairly fluent in determining authenticity of various brands of designer sunglasses. If there's a pair of sunglasses someone is selling and you are unsure of authenticity please tag me and I will do my best to give you an accurate answer regarding authenticity. IF YOU TAG ME IN A LISTING FROM A PROFILE THAT HAS DOZENS OF SUNGLASSES WAYYYY UNDER RETAIL I WILL NOT RESPOND. THEY ARE FAKE!

shannnyy
Hey so I feel weird tagging this person but their account is linda09s could you check out the pair she just listed? I just bought them before I saw this but I am afraid they may not be authentic? They look it! Thank you so much!!!
akaplan93
@shannnyy I unfortunately don't believe they are. There should be a small engraving of "RB" on the side of the lens I don't see and also all of the flash lenses come with matte hardware not shiny which in the picture the hardware looks shiny to me. They seem like a decent fake but I'm almost positive they're not real.
shannnyy
@akaplan93 thank you so much. I realized after with the price so low... Couldn't have been real. I'd rather put the money towards authentic ones. Thank you for your help! 😎
akaplan93
@shannnyy I totally agree! Go to a department store when they're 25% off. They'll still be around $100 but definitely worth the little bit of extra money :)

This is awesome, I recently "scored" on a pair of MK but I'm now thinking they are a replica 😖😩 can I upload a pic and have you take a look for me?
akaplan93
@iheartbrenda you definitely can. I'm not as familiar with them because they switched over vendors recently and depending on when they were made they would look different.
shannnyy
Definitely do not buy from @linda09s they most certainly are fakes!
akaplan93
@shannnyy I saw you were attempting to buy again and I hope you didn't! Lol
shannnyy
Ugh no, they are such a rude person it's ridiculous. I reported to Posh but nothing happened.. Idk. Frustrating!
akaplan93
@shannnyy yeah unfortunately they take quite some time to take action but hopefully her account will be shut down soon. I reported her as well.

@akaplan93
great idea Amanda! I wkd for an optical for 15 yrs and im pretty familiar with Authentic designer shades too. I see WAAAY to many knock offs here and hate to think not only are ppl getting ripped off but the thought of the harm on the eye from inadequate protection is really disturbing!😁😡👎🏼
akaplan93
@partymk999 yes, girl! So glad someone else understands. I wish people would be more careful. Sometimes I just want to comment on the blatantly fake listings letting people know they're not real but I don't want to ruffle too many peoples' feathers haha
goldenpolkadot
@akaplan93 im with ya! I just report them cuz if we comment in ppls closets it creates drama and then we r the ones getin trouble. I use to sell younique 3d mascara here n ppl were selling knockoff for waaaaay cheaper than mine. They were getting eye infections nd losing lashes. I put warning listing in my closet to help. Hey we do what we can rite? 🌹
akaplan93
@beemoe as far as I know it should say Italy but I'm going to double check all my raybans once I get home from work today and I'll get back to you :)
akaplan93
@beemoe of course! Happy to help :)
amandalwaters
Thanks for this! I have been looking for a pair of sunglasses but I'm too scared! I will for sure tag you if I find a pIr and am unsure.
sheeohwits
@akaplan93 hi! I just bought a pair of Ray-Bans and they look/feel legit, but wanna make sure they definitely are before I release funds. Don't wanna offend the seller though. Any chance I could upload a few pics and either post/email them to you? Thanks! ☺️
akaplan93
@sheeohwits of course! Whatever you feel more comfortable with
sheeohwits
@akaplan93 email may be better just so I can add more than 4 if I need to/don't have to post them to PM (really wish there was a direct messaging feature). What's your email?
akaplan93
@sheeohwits it's akaplan@udel.edu :)
oneubauer
I just bought a pair from sammi_324 but haven't received them yet. The picture looks good to me, but I always think it's a bit skeptical when people are selling multiple pairs. Please let me know what you think!
akaplan93
@oneubauer like you said it's so hard to tell with those but when someone is selling them in bulk for a discounted rate lower than a normal seller would I would lean towards them not being real. They tend to be decent fakes but the color is always off a bit. Like if you look at the blue they always sell its darker in color than the typical blue mirrored ray bans. Same goes for the ones you got, it's slightly off in color than the ones sold in department stores. Sorry girl :(
oneubauer
You're right the color just doesn't look right and it seems too cheap to be real ones. Hopefully poshmark will let me send them back or cancel the order! Thank you so much!
akaplan93
@oneubauer of course :)
akaplan93
@besos4youddl definitely NOT authentic lol
besos4youddl
Thank you so much.
ren007
Oh that's good to know. I purchased a pair of ray bans and I was so suspicious... I took them in to a sun glass store and the guy said they were real. I'm still skeptical tho
nellgibbs
thank you for doing this!
lissetyyy
Hi I work with sunglasses and they can definitely say "made in China" if they are authentic this happened ever since luxotica bought ray ban so they can also say "made in Italy" :)
monicat2020
I also can help authenticate sunglasses. I work very closely with numerous retailers in the eyeglass and sunglasses profession. I have extensive knowledge on most frames. Tag me if you need additional feedback on replicas vs authentic I'd be happy to help. I specialize in Oliver people's, Michael Kors, coach, ray bans, versace, Gucci, dolce and Gabbana, Tiffany and a few more. Thanks

Aww that is so sweet of you to help people 😊😊😃😊😃😊😃😄😄

style4z
Any tips on how to authenticate Tom Ford sunglasses?
akaplan93
@style4z are they on here? I can take a look! They'll have the Tom ford logo engraved in the top corner of the lens. It'll always say the style name inside too
style4z
@ Anitanagy is selling some but I can't tell if it's legit or not
akaplan93
@style4z I can't 100% tell from the pictures. They seem to be but as her to post pictures of the logo on the lens and also the inside of the arm with the style name :)
heathbee
Please do comment on the fake ones!!!!!! I would love to know who the honest people are! 😊
pretty11
I bought from linda09s but she deleted her posting so i cant show you. 😞 Is her stuff fake?@akaplan93
akaplan93
@pretty11 it is sadly and they probably finally shut her profile down. She was always so nasty to people when they questioned the authenticity too.
pretty11
Aw, no wonder. 😭 thanks
akaplan93
@pretty11 no problem

So awesome that you're doing this!! I've gotten cheated twice already
blairesuzanne
Hi! ☺️ I recently bought all black Ray Bans from twix700, and I haven't gotten them yet. She did say on the description that she didn't know if they were authentic or not, and I still did decide to purchase them. But I am curious if they are, in fact, real or not. Thanks!
akaplan93
@blairesuzanne I can't tell from those pictures. There should be an rb engraved on the right lens by the hinge and also rb on the inside of the nose pads as well as style information on the inside of the arms. When they arrive you can post pictures and I'd be happy to help you :)
blairesuzanne
I definitely will!! Thank you! :)
bryanne09
Hey girl I just bought some raybans and I was wondering if you could help me out? I bought them on a different sight so can I email you pictures or should I just make a listing and tag you in it?
montanaharris
could you get me some
trishtam
Will keep this in mind. Thank you!💕
loice
Tagged you in 2 ray-ban listings, already got the blue green but want to purchase the black for a trip on mon, plaease check em out for me. Thanks you so much for what you are doing on here. Greatly appreciate it. Be blessed
robin7777
Thanks dollm that was super sweet. I'd like to tag you in a lot of things and ask you iffx they're fake people are really messed up. I would never do that to anyone. Bad karma lying to somebody about a brand like why you need money that bad people. Anyways thanks doll
akaplan93
@maggiepedersen I'm inclined to say they're not authentic because if you look at the pictures where they're "proving authenticity" they have a totally different background than the other pictures. I also don't think I've ever seen that style made in that color. Comes in the different purple hues but not that. Hope that helps!
maggiepedersen
@akaplan93 Wow thank you so much!!! I thought the color would be cool! That's why I would even consider buying off here! But your right they normally have he light pink
akaplan93
@maggiepedersen yeah they're definitely cute but wouldn't want you to end up with something that isn't authentic. No problem at all :)
akaplan93
@lbgull sorry about that I submitted the offer the same as your counter :) id love the crops
lbgull
@akaplan93 hi thank you 🙂 I had other offers but you got them!
annagraceh19
Can you check and see if the pair from nicolern17 that she just sold are authentic please?
akaplan93
@annagraceh19 from what I can tell they look fine but you would have needed additional pics of inside nose pieces and the rb etched into lens to know for sure. But I'm 98% sure they're good anyway
annagraceh19
Thank you so much!
mayra319
User: raybandealer is her stuff authentic?
akaplan93
@mayra319 nope those are all fake
mayra319
@akaplan93 thanks! That's what I thought. What a shame.
mayra319
@akaplan93 any tips to help spot fakes?
akaplan93
@mayra319 depends on the style. A lot of the hardware should be matted instead of shiny on the ones she's selling. Also many of the aviators she's selling aren't even real colors ray ban manufactures
mayra319
@akaplan93 thanks!!
blackhat_dreems
Nice
maddylunde
hey! i just bought some sunglasses from fashion_goods & i cannot tell if they are real or not. They have all the packaging and etchings but feel pretty lightweight & i didn't know if that was what they were designed to feel like. i ordered the round metal 3447 112/z2 in the matte gold with pink flash lenses from her. thank you!
akaplan93
@maddylunde I cannot tell from her profile because those are all stock photos. I would have to assume yours are fake. I would never buy from someone selling multiples like that at such a low price that's a major red flag.
kpatricia27
Hey, mind checking these? Seller is ranger7880. Looking to buy black and gold ray bans. Thank you
akaplan93
@kpatricia27 fake see comment above yours
on3al
Hi could you take a look at tate40 just listed a pair of ray ban about 45 minutes ago greatly appreciated.
akaplan93
@on3al fake. Please see comment above as well. Do not buy from people who have that many listings.

akaplan93
@ana_3713 they're fake
ana_3713
Just wondering, how can u tell? So I know for the future:)
akaplan93
@ana_3713 it's already in this comment feed and I always refer people to it. If someone is selling that many pair for that cheap it's a dead giveaway that it's fake. Also the shape, quality of the hardware. I can see her mirrored ones have shiny hardware it should 100% be matte.
ana_3713
Ok thanks so much!

@sophdav second tag looks fine. See description of this listing about the first. Thanks.

@akaplan93 thank you so much!!!! ❤ sorry for wasting your time on the first one i didnt realize
caitlinberman
Hi lady! I found this post while googling how many fake glasses are sold on poshmark. I recently bought sunglasses from @ astiningztxyas and I didn't realize how many of the same pair were sold. Do you think any are real? I got the blue RB3374 round pair.
akaplan93
@caitlinberman I would probably guess they're fake.
oritchie
@drapeit hi I'm wondering if these are real?
akaplan93
@oritchie read this listing lol
oritchie
@akaplan93 I know lol but people have bought them and given comments saying they are authentic?
akaplan93
@oritchie they are selling styles/colors/hardware combos that don't even exist in authentic ones.
oritchie
@akaplan93 got it! Thank you
