"Inspired" means an original, created with reference to something, usually out of deference. It implies a new twist born out of creativity. Sadly, many poshers want to sell you "inspired" items which are in truth, COUNTERFEIT. Counterfeits originate from bottom-feeders not only duplicating or replicating an original design, they are desperate knock-offs further cheapened by falsely bearing the original designer's copyrighted trademarkings. Buy a replica for cheap BUT NEVER BUY A COUNTERFEIT!

@morgan415 I've been reporting the fake Greissimo dtmd2lg has listed with no luck whatsoever. She keeps dropping the price on them so I'm scared someone will eventually bite and buy them.

Closing my closet due to rampant illegal counterfeit sales. There's misunderstandings & escalation when we look out for each other--some feel bullied & some are bullied. None of it needs to or would happen if posh enforced their own community guidelines. Plus the pervy wackadoos have really ruined it for me & posh's lack of support blocking pornographic hyperlinks depicting explicit images of genitals, sex acts, and derogatory slurs against women has turned me sour.

@icua410 thanks for sharing those but I'm only interested in buying authentic. I have no problem buying/wearing copied styles or inspired styles (like the Jessica Simpson or Aldo version of a designer style) but NEVER anything that illegally bears the designer's trademarkings (marked mcqueen or Saint Laurent or louboutin on the shoe but NOT manufactured by the designer--fake).

@icua410 The fake ones "look" ok to some people but they aren't the same thing. If I were a designer I'd be very angry that someone used MY LABEL to make themselves money! :)

Plus... it's truly illegal to sell them so no matter what it's not ok for poshmark to profit from these sales. That's essentially the same thing as poshmark taking profits from people selling drugs illegally, or guns illegally, or rhino horn illegally, or stolen belongings illegally. The difference is the brand markings. It's not illegal to copy something that isn't copyrighted but it's illegal to mark them as something they aren't. Like buying beef from the store but it's really opossum!

@pjcribari you will absolutely get your money back. If for some insane reason you don't, file a claim with your credit card to stop payment. Counterfeits are illegal.

@carlacera could you help by reporting those fake nude so Kate's with the damages that you commented on? Poshmark won't remove fake listings until enough unique users report them--I keep reporting them for replicas and off PM transactions but nothing happens.

@daris515 did you buy that nude/red pair of louboutin? Despite what the seller is saying they are counterfeit. I don't know who bought them but wanted to warn you if you did so you could get your money back. I've been reporting them but posh never removed them so someone bought them :(

@bizzy86 saw you were interested a men's/women's bundle... I don't know anything about louboutin sneakers but I know that women's pair is fake. Not even a question. That is a lot of money to pay if both are fake. The seller says they're all authentic and only wants people to buy off posh so you wouldn't be protected to return them if sneakers are also fake. Just wanted to give you a head's up discreetly

@momo_lil that pair of nude "louboutin so kates" in horrendous condition for $300 is a fake pigalle. She keeps relisting them whenever they get taken down by posh and she also blocks whoever comments on them, deletes the listing, and realists them whenever someone calls her out. It sounds like you already know what's up and smelled the rat, but just wanted to let you know your instincts were right and stay far far away :)

@leovilanova1 those black and white pairs of louboutin imperas are fake--the cutouts aren't even close to resembling the true pattern's precision. I'd venture a guess that the photos are dim to attempt disguising their counterfeit appearance but maybe she just doesn't know she bought fakes if she bought them second hand. I reported them but I'm tagging you on my own listing to save you from buying counterfeit pairs since it takes forever for posh to remove counterfeit listings

@loubielovah I let her know by tagging her on one of my old sold listings--that why I could let her know privately and hopefully not tick her off and make her defensive. But also reported them.

@gurlplz completely agree. Posh seems to be ok as long as they get their 20% cut. I’m a shoe hoarder so I’m pretty good at authenticating the shoes by now.

RANT: a poofy clown shoe/foot boat that looks like a 1940’s Bakelite butter dish and costs $20 to manufacture in China including the child slave labor wages does NOT magically increase to a $500 valuation because it bears the fake markings of a designer. Keep your plastic bedazzled trash. I’ll save my pennies and spend $100-200 more and buy a brand new pair or wait a hot minute and pay $350-400 for the real deal resale.

Counterfeits are used to launder money for all sorts of heinous criminal enterprises like terrorism and sex trafficking. Be classy, not trashy. We all start somewhere and should strive to do better and be better. People who know the difference between authentic and counterfeit can’t be fooled by “they were a gift” (fake merchandise SCREAMS fake to those who invest time educating themselves)

There’s no shame in asking for help or accepting help—I ask for help ALL THE TIME and also welcome second third and fourth opinions!

@katiekhaos if you see a pair over $500 that you’d like to nominate for the “experiment” give me the seller info here. Looking for a pair I can buy that will force the headquarters authentication to see whether they get returned vs confiscated. The only way we will know is if seller relists so it has to be a very thirsty seller That would relist if posh returned to them, over $500

@katiekhaos experiment update: made about a dozen purchases about only a handful followed through shipping. All shipped were correctly ID’d by concierge.

@howdyhowdyhowdy they will become available eventually if you’re vigilant. The trend that I’ve noticed is that all the pairs at the top of my list become available around the same time, and usually JUST after I’ve dropped a ton of cash on other things. I’ve always spent a lot on shoes while I’m working lots of overtime but there was a 2 month period where several pairs became available that in total made me scared/blush. But it was years of searching so I had to buckle up.

@howdyhowdyhowdy you’re smarter than me—just splurging when you need to. I buy too many. Then once I have them I don’t like to part ways with them. I have two of many of the pairs—usually bc one is a better fitting size but now I’m starting to get reluctant to get rid of the poor size bc “it’s backup” (I seriously just need to clean house... I have so many pairs that I “lose” pairs on the regular and it takes me weeks to find them again bc I didn’t put them back into the correct location.)

@tiffcake I love that you do that, I wish there was a more permanent solution! Posh needs to add an option(even 25$) to have any item authenticated;refunded if its fake, and they will see how big the problem really is when it costs them money.

@jackeesimpkins they have to reimburse posh for the shipping to headquarters & pay to ship back to them. If they don’t pay, they stay suspended & at least lose their fakes (even if they create another account). Their suspension is temporary if they pay... so I only get one chance to do it

@tiffcake Wow you put in an offer? What happened? I haven’t looked back on that girl’s pair she got in Vegas, but I did notice someone asked when she got them. Will have to check and see if she replied- since they have the old school stamp on the bottoms

Said she bought them in 2010

@ctryon they’re supposed to be a studded VP but VP & follies are my wheelhouse. I have more of them than other CL style.

@ctryon I don’t buy the whole vero cuoio I only in pairs pre-2007 thing... I have 3 pairs of python jaws (they’re basically a special edition VP) and I have it in all 4 colors, including color only available outside US. They all have vero cuoio & I’m pretty sure it became first available in December 2008. I think 2007ish is a good theory but somehow that theory has become law & I don’t think it’s accurate (at least not for 4 pairs in my collection)

4 pairs... sorry that doesn’t make sense. I was typing fast on iPhone.
I haven’t received notification they’ve accepted the offer but here’s what happens. Usually they ignore it and block me. Maybe half accept but only half of those that accept will actually ship to headquarters. If it ships to headquarters, they will be suspended 24hrs & can reimburse posh to return ship. If they don’t pay, they stay suspended.

@ctryon kiss is incorrect. There is VP spikes. They just aren’t very appealing. The spike pattern is kinda lame. But that pair for sale isn’t them. They’re fake AF.

@tiffcake Yeah I have heard 2007 and 2009. Either way we know that they aren’t real! I hope her listing gets removed quickly so no one buys them

@tiffcake It is interesting how people are intentionally lying about their shoes- yet don’t realize that there are people out there that have many pairs of these shoes, or know a lot about them. People like that are scum. Lying to take someone’s money.

@loulove22 I’m reaching out to you here on my own listing to help you (not commenting on seller’s listing bc I don’t want to cause her drama)
The black patent Pigalle you just bought for $200 is counterfeit. It’s probably too late to cancel the sale but when you receive them you can open a case with posh to get your money back. I can help you provide the proof for the case.
If you know they’re fake & are ok paying that price for it, then please forgive me for reaching out.

@tiffcake thank you so much and I really hope you’re wrong. I will be pissed. And yes, I will reach out to you for help if need be! I appreciate you reaching out❤️

@loulove22 yes, no doubts whatsoever on those. Open the case as soon as you receive them. You will need to provide photos in very specific positions to posh & they will refund you. The seller doesn’t receive funds until you release so just don’t release. Open the case & let posh handle the rest.

@loulove22 I wouldn’t be surprised if the listing you bought gets taken down before you receive them due to reports of counterfeit item against it. Even if it gets taken down, don’t worry. It still is listed in your purchases and all posh needs to settle your case is the photos that you will provide

@forshee1228 good call on the iridescent spiked follies. TBH, original pic looked like possibly ok pair w/ card added but extra pics confirm. The patent layer is separated from some cheaper material underneath/bubbling, the outsoles are wrong, the spike embellishment pattern is wrong, & the spikes are only iridescent on the cone (the authentic spikes are fully iridescent)
Good eyes kiddo!! 😘

@ctryon the seller (with the fake loubitag follies and fake nude pair) raised the price to $500 but blocked me so I can’t buy it—as if I’m a coward to the outsider that didn’t follow up on my request for price increase. Think she blocked me bc everyone knows I buy for $500 to shut down their closets once headquarters receives them? She didn’t remove my comments—just blocked me so I can’t buy GRRrR

@loubielovahhh both her pairs are fake so she blocked me. The taps and the toebox were dead giveaways on the loubitag pair (seriously, follies that high on the foot?!?! Where’s the toe cleavage!!)
I buy the fakes $500 to get their closets shut down (posh makes them pay to get their shoes back & they stay suspended if they don’t pay) but she was wise to my shenanigans I guess. Although she claims I offered her $100? Um no. I commented to raise price & that’s it

@tiffcake Haha... I don’t think anything annoys me more as sellers who are adamant that their shoes are 100% authentic, but they are clearly fake. I saw she asked me a question, but haven’t replied. Any suggestions?

@tiffcake @loubielovah Well I tried asking her to increase the price to $500, but she also blocked me as well

@ctryon not sure what seller is trying to pull w/ the asteroids. That second pic looks authentic w/ very dirty insole. The subsequent pics look are fake w/ clean insole. I’ve got two asteroids & they have Swarovski crystals between the spikes. The suspicious pair does not.

@edwinbong re:asteroids... I agree with you. The icing on the cake is the claim they were purchased in Vegas at boutique (where I live). I have two pairs of asteroids and that pic with the dirty insole is authentic but it’s NOT the same pair as the fake pair in the other photos. Maybe it’s taking a long time to add the pics bc she’s scouring google 😆

I had them in black and I just scored them in nude. Have to replace some of the crystals (missing) but that’s MUCH easier than replacing spikes.

edwinbong
WOW such an awesome thread!!!! Yes, definitely replicas. Pretty funny how she males the claim they are authentic. I always replied with a "Vegas boutique at Goodwill?" But thought better of it. Lol, she was at least smart enough to start with a stock photo, real photo, then bad angles of her fake ones 🤣🤣😂😂.
