Are these Fakes???

[Lúthien]

Hello everyone...

So i got these CL from a shop i would normally trust, but still there is something about them.

I was looking and asked for a pair in my size, he said he might have some, but they was old (e.g. a fair few years, he said, but not used)

So in the end i got them, and love(ed) them... but then i got a rash, and was sure it was from the shooes, well not the shooes but the buckels. And i was thinking that either they are fake or they have been used and woren, and the the buccles has been changed. Or maybe they are just really, really old...

Anyway i'm not sure of the authenticy, and think as i really love the shooes that i tend to be bias towards them as I really, reallt want them to be CL's and not fake.

Have a look... and tell me what you think.

P.s: If you have shooes you are unsure of, you can put put them in this thread, then we can have them all together

Your skin is just probably reacting to the metal. I used to break out with a rash when i first wore my glasses, because they were metal frames. It has something to do with sweat and the metal. A great solution for this is to put nail polish on the are of metal thats hitting your skin.
Personally I dont think it has to do with age ...it wouldn't excuse why you got a rash.
Another possibility is that there is something in the material of the shoe that your body is reacting to. I would definitely let store know about it...

Sorry~~They are fakes. Real Louboutin do not have a shield stamp on the bottom with Italian words in it. I bought fakes on Ebay and I knew immediately after opening the box, they were fakes. I paid $400 for fakes I found on a UK website for $167. I have 2 pair of real ones that I already had from Neiman Marcus for comparison. The box was different & the red shoe bag was too. Real Louboutins have a leather bottom that has a soft suede-like feel after they have been scuffed up. The fakes I got were a rubber/plastic bottom that had a "smudge" not a scuff (and the same shield stamp as on yours). The Louboutin "red" on the sole is paint and it scratches off when it gets scuffed, revealing the tan leather. Made me sad the first time I wore them & realized it! LOL I did get a refund from the fake seller. I was lucky!

Hi there,
I am new to this so forgive me if I get this posting wrong. Caroldiva has suggested that I contact the shoe forum as I need some help authenticating some Chanel thongs that I purchased off ebay. I am sure that they are fake (the box they came in had Asian writing all over it and they were packaged in cellophane type bags) and have requested a refund from paypal but they want me to prove that they are fake before they will refund my money (seller won't refund). They are the Chanel Camellia jelly thongs and I have attached some photos. Paypal has requested 1. Obtain a document from an unbiased third-party, such as a dealer appraiser, or an organization that is qualified in the area of the item in question (other than you). This document should contain the following:
• Detailed description as to why the item is not authentic (i.e., how the
item differs from an authentic item, how the person evaluating the item
determined that it is not authentic, etc.).
• If possible, the document should include a serial number and must be on
letterhead that includes the name, address, and phone number of the
authenticating party so that we can contact them directly, if necessary.

Need to fax the info by 26/02/11.

Apologies for the long post but is anyone able to help?
Many thanks D

Yikes! I would believe they are fakes, as well with Asian writing on the box. I would buy NOTHING that is "designer" from anywhere in Asia. They now make contacts here in the USA to sell their fakes because they know we are on to them.
Take them to a store that sells Chanel footwear to get an official opinion. You might even send the photos and a description of what you found directly to Chanel's official website or their USA corporate office (in NYC?). Get them to write you a letter that says they are fakes, if they believe they are. Then you can send it to Paypal. It is possible they are real or that the person who sold them believed they are real.

Good Luck,
Becky

I think it's fake.

God knows!
But I'd agree with those who say that there are fakes in Asian markets. Buy in India, Indonesia, Hong Kong only from exclusive shops. Don't buy if they are selling very cheap.
