How Sure Can You Be that you got the real thing?
« on: May 20, 2011, 10:37:30 am »
Regardless of which, I read a comment while browsing in sulit.com.ph's feedbacks from a user

Quote
Thankyou so much!! My girlfriend really thought that this bag is authentic.. She told me it was the best birthday present she ever received.. This is the best replica ever!!! Its really like the "real deal".. Absolutely perfect.. I'll order more.

So meaning may mga bf's pala na nagbibigay ng mga bags or gifts na fake tapos sasabihin nila sa girlfriends nila authentic. Haha theyre worse than the sellers! Girls beware of bf's like these!

Created this thread for fun and feedbacks

Reminds me of a loser who gave me a necklace which accdg to him cost 4k. Just by looking at it, parang hindi naman ganun yung value. So I had it checked by a professional. Less than 1k lang daw yon. Cheapo.

Anyway, I am so tempted to buy an LV Artsy Monogram from an eBay seller. It's priced at P 68.5K. I don't know how to check its authenticity. :(

^same way you can check your LV sis
better meet up at an LV store and have it authenticated personally

hmm.. hindi pa ako nabibigyan ng ganito kasi..
never pa ako nabigyan ng mamahalin ng mga ex-bf ko!

pero yung engagement ring naman siguro saken ni hubby totoo, kasi nung nagpunta kami ng lola ko sa jeweller pina authenticate ko haha sabi kasi ni hubs platinum daw yun saka diamond :p (nagduda pa din ako haha)

Haha! Ang kulet ng story na yan ah! Hahaha

As for authenticity, your best bet is really to buy them from the store! It may be more expensive but nothing beats the feeling of getting them shiny and new and wrapped up in their fancy boxes...

Always buy from the store/boutique of the brand.
  If given as a gift - the packaging comes looking and smelling so fresh and crisp with all the bells and whistles.  :)

Mga limiligaw sa mga artista - lalo na yung kilatis nila magets nila for sex thru an expensive gift - they buy pre-owned bags or watches to give as gifts or payment. Lol

I buy din sa shops para sure na orig.

If given as a gift, hindi ko na pinapa check para hindi na ako mag-isip pa ng di kanais nais sa tao, hahaha...

If you're going to buy it from ebay, there's a good chance na fake.

I received an LV wallet with my initials on it.  I went to the store talaga to have it checked.  thank God it's authentic.

Imagine how scared I am nung marealize kong kung peke yung pina-check kong LV wallet, pwede ako ipapulis!  eeeek! 
(at narealize ko lang yun after i handed the item LOLS)

^ Haha. I can imagine your relief nung sinabi nilang authentic sya. :)

I'll get na lang from the store. Better safe than sorry. Sayang yung P68.5 kung fake naman.

hehe this is really funny! good thing i dont rely on anyone for luxury items.

i know my engagement ring is real becoz my husband gave it to me with the receipt so that i can have it adjusted daw..hehe men are really funny! he was more concerned with the size and he didn't even bother asking me if i was accepting his proposal..hehe

I've never had a bf buy something extravagant for me. Pinakamaluho na siguro yung mga biyahe biyahe. Paano pepekein yun? Nyaha.

Hmm I think it's best to go to a store talaga. Even if it's more expensive, you're not losing sleep over its authenticity. End of the day, priceless talaga ang peace of mind eh. :)
