Any idea on these? Detailing looks quite good to me.

One thing you can do to check for the likelihood of your item being a fake is to search for replicas (usually Chinese) of that item or similar items on Google. So to take these Borrelli jeans for example, you can search for "Borrelli jeans replica," and find out that there do not appear to be any counterfeit Borrelli jeans available by Chinese sellers. Since there seem to be no replicas of this product, it is likely that it is authentic.

I'd like to learn how to spot a fake Hermes tie. Can anyone suggest any resources?

Thanks in advance.

Thank You for your response. In sum what do You think about this jacket? I've dilemma because the tag isn't in inside pocket only on the bottom of the lining.

Thanks

What do you guys think about this tie? http://www.ebay.com/itm/221264357713?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2648

Having decided that I have paid enough in my life for cheap, single-summer sunglasses, I am looking at a pair of Randolph Engineering aviators. From the company website (and the only shop in Vancouver that carries them) they are $180. From this ebay seller, $90 + shipping, taxes

Would anyone counterfeit RE glasses? If so, would they counterfeit the company paperwork and the repair kit and hardcase that comes with them? What are the odds these are real:

Both look real to me!

There are so many replicas of this belt - ranging from very low to very high quality, that it would be impossible to identify its authenticity without actually taking it to a Gucci person for an in-person inspection. For what it's worth, however, some of the replicas for this belt have become convincing enough that any difference in quality between the replica and the real product are marginal at best, meaning nobody would be able to tell.
