Authentic or Fake?

Brand: Betsey Johnson
Style Tags

In 2012 Betsey filed for bankruptcy and was bought by Steve Madden. Authentic items will not be shipped directly from China. Leopard print tags are a sign of vintage but also of fakes. No sticker/residue = fake; no matter the tag design. Fakes have the signature heart so don't use only that to tell its authenticity. Betsey doesn't use trademarked designs except for Trolls which is/was an exclusive line for Macy's. No leopard tags found at major retail stores.

csoratThank you so much! I used to work at one of her boutiques and source a lot of Betsey and I get so irritated when I see people on here selling fakes. And if they don’t know and I tell them nicely, they say well it has the heart logo. That doesn’t mean anything lol . Unless there’s a barcode on the back, you know they are fake. Thank you for posting this, I may make a listing in my closet as well to educate people. ❤️❤️❤️

Mar 02Reply

runwythrftshop@treasures2u I've been in contact with them as well. They sell bulk wholesale to retail/department stores or licensed wholesalers only. They don't distribute directly from warehouses overseas. All retailers buy directly from Steve Madden and have the same tags. Leopard print is a retired vintage tag.

Mar 03Reply

vichp55Well, it's happening. Fakes are being sold with the white/pink tag. I saw the moon/star earrings (2 styles) with them. Same day, saw the earrings marketed as another brand...LA Eye Candy, I think. Keep reporting!

Mar 03Reply

runwythrftshop@vichp55 This is why I can't stress enough about the retail tag. Or even doing a quick reverse image search of what's claiming to be Betsey.

Mar 03Reply

runwythrftshopPotential buyers, please ask to see the retail sticker side. Most Betsey come in collections such as Dark Shadows, Dark Forest, Sea Excursion, Candyland, Enchanted Forest, etc. It's all cute until you spend $35 on a fake item that can be bought on eBay for $2. Most of the fake items come from eBay sellers in China and listed as unbranded.

Jul 18Reply

swanstar@treasures2u thanks. The eBay inventory isn't exactly fake. When Madden bought out Betsey they sold off all the extra left over inventory to sales in China. ( since that's where she had it made in the past) So it's not that it's fake, it's just clearance from years ago. Just FYI

Jul 26Reply

swanstar@dearestdeer no fake bags.

Jul 26Reply

dearestdeer@swanstar thanks! I realized recently that there must be just a lower quality line. I know Burlington sells them for sure, they're still cute but just not as nice!

Jul 26Reply

swanstar@dearestdeer yes the new designs are more classy as she is getting more and more popular. I think of her as the grown up girls Lisa Frank ❤️💕 .., adorable. I did buy the Coca Cola necklace on eBay and I love it just as much. It's not junk. But for all new stuff the department stores have great sales too!

runwythrftshop@bentlerj Hi, I noticed that your pink Betsey purse is a replica. I don't mean to offend you in anyway; I just like helping people spot non-authentic Betsey items. I don't wish to cause any problems with you selling which is why I tagged you here instead of commenting in your closet.

Nov 09Reply

bentlerj@runwythrftshop I do appreciate your help. How can you tell that it is a fake? Thanks

Nov 09Reply

runwythrftshop@bentlerj The lining of the bag, the shoulder strap, and the lack of design. Betsey purses are part of collections so there's always a design that will set it apart from other purses. All her bags also always have one of her signature linings, vintage and new.

Nov 09Reply

bentlerj@runwythrftshop You know, the bag does feel cheap. I thrifted it at GW. I will delete the listing. Thanks so much.

Nov 09Reply

bentlerj@runwythrftshop I deleted the solid pink bag. I noticed you liked another that is sparkly. Do you think that one is real? Thanks

Nov 09Reply

runwythrftshop@bentlerj That one is 100% real and I would buy it right now if I didn't just buy a Betsey bag. I have my eye on it for next week's Betsey budget 😍😍

hmurawski4Thanks so much for providing this info, I had so many items in my Likes with tags that now look questionable. Do you have any tips for spotting fakes amongst items without tags?

Aug 05Reply

runwythrftshop@hmurawski4 Most of the fakes are the cheap Betsey being sold on ebay. If you look at the 6th picture in this listing you'll notice the fakes chain. Most fakes use that chain type. If the back of the jewelry has the laser cut outs it will always be in the shape of hearts. The only trademarked characters used is Trolls. Minnie, Hello Kitty, Cola, etcetera are all fake. If the picture looks like it belongs on ebay it's most likely fake.

Aug 05Reply

hmurawski4@runwythrftshop Thank you again. I will definitely examine items more closely before I buy.

nairb879l did a live chat on Betsey Johnson website a couple of weeks ago to find out about the real factory watches. The pictures on the site are the way they come. Some sellers of NEW fakes are using the sites real pictures then inserting an actual picture of what they have with the time all over the different times. Check it out for yourself.

finelilthingsI found a Betsey Johnson wristlet today, black with a white bow. Something makes me think it is a fake. For instance, the top of the bow has a rip. Also, there is a Made in China tag on the inside. If I post it, can you tell me your thoughts? Thanks!

dylraveThank you for this information. I'm trying to find out more information about a beautiful Betsey Johnson set I have. I cannot find information on the set anywhere. I have seen the skirt (short black polka dots with heart pockets) but not with the stretchy corset type vest that I have with it. Do you have any suggestions on how to find out more information? I'm wanting to sell it, as it's been in my daughter's closet forever! Cleaning it out now. Thanks so much!

dalemacaz@pixpixbear Her listings are from AliExpress or DHGate. Ppl can’t buy directly from BJ 🙄

Mar 08Reply

dalemacaz@pixpixbear I meant to say ppl can’t buy wholesale BJ. I tagged her here and she told me the same thing. Obviously she didn’t read the part about BJ not having Hello Kitty etc. She’s selling fake Betsey Hello Kitty jewelry!

Mar 08Reply

pixpixbear@dalemacaz They're very obviously fake! I called her out on in the comments and she blocked me. I reported her.

Mar 08Reply

dalemacaz@pixpixbear I reported her also. There is no way she bought this crap from a BJ store! She looked through my listings and said the BJ earrings I have are fake. Mine have a barcode and a non leopard tag...

angiefduncan@runwythrftshop Hi, I’m Angie,I love BJ &this was my 1st time I was iffy & had that ‘not sitting right’ feeling. I got 2 BJ beanies delivered today by 2 different sellers. 1 didn’t have the heart and the other 1 didn’t have the white & pink tag/s inside at all, just a white wash instructions tag. So now I’m totally confused and don’t know if they’re both real, fake, or one of each. If u can spare a sec u know how I can find out that would be rad! Ty

kmrvtThank you for posting this. I had bought some that I thought were BJ until I read your article. I changed all my listings. When a brooch showed up with an earrings tag was my tip-off 🥺

Jun 17Reply

clunkybearLove this site. Many sellers on PM lie when you call them out on authenticity. After hearing excuses from some PM sellers, I just talked to Betsey Johnson Co. They confirmed NO lower price point lower quality but still authentic line, Nor do they license anyone to produce cheaper versions. At this point I think there is more non-authentic than authentic Betsey Johnson being sold on Poshmark, unfortunately.

buttercup1215@runwythrftshop Hi there!! I simply adore BJ have for many years. If you could take a minute to look at a couple of my listing I'd appreciate any advice you may give. Especially the Teardrop set?? Thanks look forward to your advice.

Nov 05Reply

bigfootshoes12I sell genuine vintage Betsey Johnson jewelry and it DOES have leopard print tags. They are old, but genuine. I see that you do state that some vintage does have the leopard tag. But some people have accused me of selling fakes because they have leopard tag (ignoring that vintage does have the leopard tags.). Will you repeat yourself in this ad that 'vintage Betsey Johnson jewelry does have the older leopard tags', so it is not missed by readers?

sflynn10Heya, so I'm looking at some stuff and the logo of Betsey Johnson name shows different on packaging. Could that be a hint that it's counterfeit? As an example the first o(in Johnson part) is Betsey Johnson but on some it shows as Betsey JOhnson.
