Is this really authentic Prada? They cost 159$, from China...
Fake. Also, they're women's sunglasses (if that makes a difference). The fakers did a reasonably good job, but still pretty sloppy. They included a real model number, but the model they stamped it with doesn't match what style they are (I don't know women's glasses enough to tell if they've duped a real prada model, or just stamped a random fashion). Also, the blurring on the prada logo on the lens is probably to fool filtering software for copyright violation. (Or maybe plausible deniability for fraud). Fakers gon' fake fake fake fake fake

The label looks real, and should be very recent (I believe that's the current couture label). I'd need to see the manufacturer tag to be certain though.

Can anyone authenticate this for me? I'm leaning toward fake because the branding on the keeper is off center and there is no thread loop.

I bought one off ebay in a hurry and haven't received the item yet but am wondering if it is even real or fake.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Paul-Smith-...WKzXkqe6kF6yKHoimcas0%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

The item listing ended since I purchased but you can scroll down and see the pics.

I couldn't find this particular wallet in any of Paul Smith's previous collections.

Please let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

I recently purchased a 'Burberrys' Suit on eBay and I have a question about whether it is authentic.

The seller is from Ukraine. The suit is branded 'Burberrys'.

Here's a photo of the entire suit as context:



This is the tag at the nape:



The tag inside:



This is a close-up photo of the lining:



And the tag on the trousers:



Thanks in advance for the help; any advice is much appreciated!

Is my Burberry scarf fake?

I just like to make sure if the stuff i'm wearing is authentic or not. My basis on this scarf is simply the position of the main burberry tag.
The scarf I have has the burberry/made in scotland/100% cashmere tag lying on the black lines. While these tags on high rep ebay sellers has it on the red line under the "RY" of the burberry. As shown below.
