pattilabella @charms342 yes I'm starting to see more & more!! I reported a jewelry store here that sells costume jewelry - I saw a section of bags & they had so many MK fake bags & were selling them for $50! I asked for the mgr & asked him if they were real & he said yes then told him i know they weren't & it was against the law & they not so kindly asked me to leave

stephie2212 I unfortunately got scammed on a internet site that goes by Michael Kors Outlet. It was late at night and I just needed a MK purse, there are MK Outlets but they even are still pricey. I thought I hit it big, should have done my research first there all over scam and rep off reports online. My bank called me the next morning to ask if I made a purchase for $300 to Singapore. That's when I knew right then I got got! Don't even think about arguing with the company about getting a refund bc they send them anyway saying they are real and of course with no return address. Not much you can do when your scammed from out of states Michael Kors Outlet NONO ladies!!!!

flowersup2 @charms342 THANKS FOR THIS!! I'm new to MK & need to learn this before buying. One thing I cannot find however is REAL VS FAKE MK WALLETS!!! I've googled it many times & can't find any comparisons on wallets just on handbags. Can you help with that? In Particular I'm curious about the mirrored & metallic wallets & his to tell the difference? Especially if an item does not have a new sales tag.

flowersup2
flowersup2 @charms342 I've read somewhere that new fake MK bags have the plastic safety cover that you peal off on top of the gold logos, but that real MK products never have that clear plastic covering? Is that true?? Seams to me that any new product would have plastic covering the metal logos for protection
Jun 13Reply
charmingdawn
charmingdawn @jen2rodriguez I will research about wallets but for plastic cover issue I'm trying to remember my mk purses if they came with that protective layer. I don't usually see it on the authentic one in stores but I can't guarantee that anything with a plastic cover is fake.

flowersup2
flowersup2 @charms342 Thank you for that quick reply💌 so nice of you. It would be awesome if there were more YouTube comparisons--it's easy to tell that way. I'm actually surprised I couldn't find more info when I searched--MK products are extremely popular & it seems everybody is buying them so I expected much more info on the web

flowersup2 @pattilabella Hey:). Do you by chance know the answer to my questions above? Thank you:)
Jun 13Reply
pattilabella
pattilabella @jen2rodriguez I don't recall ever peeling off one of those plastic covers over anything - all the MK charms or hardware I've seen are covered by a thin, spongy styrofoam. I have 2 new MK bags that still have the protective covers. One has a thin paper covering with a white tape strip & the other has the spongy cover.

flowersup2 @pattilabella And what the fake metallic mirrored wallets look like, if any difference can be found? Thanks so much
Jun 13Reply
pattilabella
pattilabella @jen2rodriguez I'm afraid I've never seen a fKe wallet so I wouldn't even know what it looks like - I've seen the fake mirror metallic purse you can tell my the material - it's rally thin & very cheap looking

lucy_helwig @charms342 this is really great! The experts with Posh, they need to see this. I bought a wallet from a seller here on Posh. I knew the moment I had it in my hands, it was fake...long story short...I had to send photos, which I'm not good at taking but I explain with each photo, why the wallet was fake...down to the fact that it was made of pleather. I could believe it but the MK "Specialist" determined it was real. I through it in the trash! Posh's "specialist" needs to see this! 😀

missladypaula I just bought a bag and I'm trying to see if it's fake. The lining on the bag is not one I've seen previously and the bag says it's from burma. It's the vanilla jet set tote which can't be found everywhere. If I post pics, can anyone help me?

missladypaula @charms342 cool I just posted a ton of pics. Needed two sell spots for it. Hopefully they clear enough. Everything looks right, I'm just unsure of the liner

plugo1
plugo1 @bunny116 I was just wondering if all authentic purses had date codes. I purchased one from eBay and their was no date code. So now I'm unsure if it's real or not. There's no other reason to doubt the purse besides it doesn't have a date code
Oct 20Reply
bunny116
bunny116 @plugo1 I ls it a newer or older bag? I don’t think all Burberry bags actually have date codes/serial numbers. If that’s your only concern then I think you should be ok 😄👍🏻

torie212 Can anyone look at “bigsalegroup”’s closet and see if they are authentic? My bf purchased the MK Continental travel wallet for me through then and now I’m worried it’s not authentic due to their name and how many high priced items they have! 🤨

debrabelcher
debrabelcher I'm new to Michael Kors and I recently ordered a double zip wallet. it looks authentic but I don't see the black tag on the inside. could this be a fake? All hardware has Michael kors engraved. the letters are in line on the front and the stitching is even. it's only missing that production tag inside. the price tag also doesn't have the numbers above the left of the bardcode as I've seen. I'm just wanting to be sure before I rate my seller and release payment. I appreciate your time.
