9:31 Cosette have acknowledged they have received my returned bag but no refund as yet
Thanks for the update Fleur 🙏🏻🥰💖
Well done!! You're one badass woman to do this, thank you for the excellent content, I've liked and subscribed!!
Honestly shout out to you and to the manager of ysl Brisbane! What a legend to help us when it comes to identifying fakes
Thank you Fleur for recording and sharing 👍👏
Cosette authenticating the merchandise they sell is like a wolf in sheep's clothing guarding the flock, in other words, a huge conflict of interest.
Kudos to the Saint Laurent staff who agreed to have their original bag compared with the one from Cosette.
I used to watch MIM consistently, but I began to feel that all of her videos were becoming nothing but sponsorship/cash grabs. She doesn’t feel authentic anymore and her videos have become so out of touch and just bragging about how much money she has.
I lost all respect for her after the last Cosette scandal and the fact that she then did another video with them.
And now the defeating silence from her…as well as, just deleting the videos??? Is that supposed to be her acknowledgment that she knows there is some shady dealings happening? Because her not addressing this seems like she’s hoping we will all just forget her collab? No, girl, you make your living off these deals collabs and “selling,” these products to your viewers.
MIM, stand up, speak up and show some humanity, the more time that passes the more you’re looking like an enabler.
Especially disturbing in light of the fact that Mel was at one point in her career an accessories buyer for a department store!
It’s just like the ftx scandal where celebs and UA-camrs promoted ftx and now that it’s collapsed they went all silent
@@KS-zd4ew Yes, the sound of crickets! I’m sure that any contract they sign has an indemnity clause!
I remember one of her videos when she bought an LV monogram sweater for her husband, knowing full well he will not wear it because he doesn't like logos. She was pushing this sweater on this poor man, like what? 🙄
I agree… It feels forced, non-relatable & it’s giving QVC🥹🫠
Honestly, I don't get all this obsession with the codes... Just buy straight from the boutique or an authorized retailer and you won't have all this headache!
it is all about the money it is cheaper at with sale n coupon
even the 'authorised' retailer is selling fakes 😂 so the only real deal is on boutiques. that's why like dacob said, these things cost a lot of money. not something you buy weekly. it just insane
@@ryeofoatmeal Retailer stores like Saks Fifth Avenue are still more reliable, but you're right about the boutiques. That's where I buy 99% of all of my lux bags.
@@oldpalmcityI agree!! I have recently read how returns of fakes were sent back to department stores for resale, so you never really know what you’re buying.
I commented 4 days ago on Mel in Melbourne's last instagram post asking if she will address the issue with Cosette. She has not replied. I'm also surprised to see no one else is asking her about this in the comment section.
Hi! I have the same bag, purchased on YSL, and zipper has discolored to kind of silver quiet fast, so it is something to consider.
It is important for those viewers that bought their bag preloved and might think their bag is fake due to this. I always say to my viewers it is important to analyze all the details all together.
Thanks for letting us know Olessia 🙏🏻🥰💖
I really feel for everyone who bought from Cosette as I had a YSL camera bag in the basket aftet watching Mel but luckily didn't go ahead with the purchase after getting cold feet. Must be so stressful if they're not getting any response or refunds from Cosette.
Mel needs to put up a video even if to say the matter is being investigated and she's unable to comment on the matter and to apologise to anyone who purchased a bag from Cosette after watching her video.
Leave Mel comments requesting her her to answer
Why is their website still operational, I just visited the site and as f now you can still purchase off them!!!
Thanks for looking out for our community! Good stuff. :)
YSL does NOT make their classic style bags for the outlets. They may sell discontinued styles or seasonal colors but there are no classics made specifically for the outlets.
YSL Outlet they do my daughter shops there online. Because they're cheaper that's why my daughter shot there.
On Monday 7 August, I travelled a 5 hour round trip today to take my fake Gucci Marmont bag into Cosette. I had been emailing them prior for a return and didn’t hear from them for 10 days.
There was no line up and the store was empty! However there were online orders on the floor ready to be shipped 😢
The girl behind the counter asked if I had reauthenticated and did I have a certificate to show her. I advised I had 3 of them. When I showed her she said yes that is proof it’s not real! This I believe is the first admission of guilt!
I filmed my entry to the store and was told to turn off my camera 🤣 my phone rang while I was in there and I was asked not to answer.
They advised my refund might take 48 hours as they are catching up on refunds from the weekend. They also reimbursed for the authentication I had done. Process took approximately 10 minutes.
On Tuesday 8 August at 11:27am a remittance advice was sent through for the refund. At 3:43pm I had the refund in my bank.
I am so glad you got a full refund plus authentication expenses refunded 💖 but I am so sorry you had to travel all that way t get your money back and had to go through all that stress 😞💖
@@SuperDacob thank you for talking about this issue! I hope that all the impacted customers get their money back. ❤️
This video (and intro) is so so good. Fashion Bunker at its finest👌
Thank you so much H. A. 🙏🏻🥰🎀
1 more thing I recalled. I have 2 Hermes bag, purchased from Hermes boutique, had 3, but sold third one, and once I had a look on the bottom of the locks, they all had differences, in a way each 2 of them had 1 detail the same, but another one different (I am talking about engravings). That makes me think the play with this depending on the year of production, against fake producers.
On top of that it is more and more difficult to consider certain quality standard things as features of authentic bags, because now brands mess up with quality- stitching, glazing, leather, zippers, craftsmanship.
23:55 not it wasn't flipped. Store manager was holding the straps. He knew which side was up
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Hi Dacob,
A Current Affair has released another piece on Cosette's co-founder and his dodgy past.
Allegedly, custom officers have seized Cosette 's latest imported goods and Border Force is investigating so it'll be interesting to see if their verdict is fake or real.
I'm kind of becoming obsessed with your channel ❤ it's a problem 🤦🏻♂️ they are so interesting
I have the Lou camera bag, which I bought from the Saint Laurent store and I can confirm that it does not have a line on the serial number.
I brought from cosette Australia ysl camera bag paid 1700 at the time saved 200 dollars so went with that, but it had stitching issues it skipped a stitching and so replaced a new one same issue and I ask for full refund which I did get thank goodness this was mths before the cosette story came out ...my bag was like that in black ⚫️ glad I got my money back i got a faulty one both bags had stitching issues and for 1700 it should not have any issues i pay real attention to my bag
Same old same old with MiM 🤨.......none of the big YT'rs/influencers care about their subbies, only their wallets. They are all fake as hell. It's a shame!!!!!!
Great video , again Dacob 💕
MIM only cares about $$$$$$$$
Love the video Dacob ! :) I would personally really consider the date of production as well, because certain batches really have significant differences. I was one of the first to buy the YSL camera models (I bought mine in the Paris flagship-store around 2016). My bag didn't even have leather piping around the edges😅. They added the piping a few seasons later... So this bag nowadays would really be seen as a fake to some "authenticators". I see there is around a two year difference in production date between both bags, so maybe YSL could have adjusted some elements like the proportions or colour of the model? I know Saint Laurent does that all the time (such as many other brands , but of course you already know this 😅) The year on the serial code does match the year on the card, so that might be a good sign I guess ? Also fake YSL bags almost always seem to get the 'made in Italy' font wrong, For some reason they prefer to use a bold sans serif style. For the logo, fakes often use a slightly elongated 'Saint Laurent'. Hope that helps :)
I’m glad that I bought all of my four YSL bags from the boutique thru my SA and the Saint L. Site.
A lady just got arrested not too long ago in her boutique for selling fake Louis Vuitto Chanel Gucci coach with over 40 million dollars worth of stuff.😂 they took 18 months but they got her
This is at usa ? Or Australia?
@@KS-zd4ew usa
Any news on Gucci belts? I bought from Cosette in Feb and when I googled what to look for in real v fake, it fails on all points. Requested return after my own independent authentication confirmed it is counterfeit but once they received the return, Cosette got an ‘independent’ authentication showing it is authentic. They only supplied 2 photos to the Authenticator. There is no stamping on belt so not sure how they can claim authentic. I’m in Melbourne. Raised case with NSW Fair Trading. Cosette not returning emails.
This was such a fun time! And now you’ve made 63k subscribers! Yay!!!
Thank you so much bluebanisters 🥰🥰🥰💖🙏🏻🌅🌅🌅🎊🎊🎊🎀
With YSL serial numbers, the first 6 digits denote the style number and the next 4 digits denotes the date code. So realistically you can have two Loulou small bags in black and gold hardware with the same serial number if they were made in 2023.
63K!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ So proud of you!!!!
Thank you so much H. A. for the love and warmth 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🥹🥹🥹💖💖💖🎀🌅
@@SuperDacobyou will forever be my favourite. Thank YOU for your love and warmth💖
I saw Fleursharp video it was good and I joined the FB group🥰 WOW eye opening
The stitches on the zipper is crooked on the Cosette bag 😂😂😂
This "coserie" about Cosette, YSL and luxury goods authentication was very instructive, thanks a lot
The font on the model and date code is different as well as the Colette bag seems to be deeper set into the leather.
Yessssss🎉 someone exposing them I had to go through PayPal for a refund 3 months later after it was cancelled. They claimed because I signed a contract with them they don't have to give me my money back and I never received that same YSL bag. They fought my PayPal claim won! And I fought again and asked them for this contract I signed and they couldn't provide it so I got my money back. NEVER buy from them. I'm from Chicago IL and this was last year. I bought it because it was a better deal.
The label indentation line! 🤯👏
Right?! I was shook but I am so thankful to Fleur cuz this taught me something new 💖💖💖
Fleur is a hero 🎉
🥰🥰🎊💖
Honestly this is why I am avoiding brands with outlets. Great video! So bummed I missed this amazing livestream. Nice work.
Thank you so much 🙏🏻🥰💖
I wonder if this stamp dent flaw could possibly appear on all other fake bags as well 🤔
OMGGGG everyone chk ur bags labels if u had bought fr pre love shops
I think they re not selling fake but instead they r selling items specifically made for outlets
I have this YSL bag in black and I could tell right away that #1 is fake.
Cosette bag doesn't look like a real leather and is very saggy too.
Gucci and prada make a line for the outlet with different model from the voutique. But ysl put the same model and the same produt as the boutique but old season with a discontinued colours but they r the same as the boutiqur
At this point I only order straight from the actual brand websites just for a peace of mind.
This style number and year/ month of production may be quite telling. With Coach bags, the fakes generally have an improbable style number and year/month of production (eg, bags of that style not made that year, or in that colour). Fonts are also telling, as is hardware and aspects of the bags dimension
can see difference on the gold YSL logo especially on the L!
This is not good because people who made a purchase even if they probably have a new authentic bag will be able to get a fake bag that looks similar to the one that they purchased and get their refund even though they purchased an authentic one. How would cosset at know the difference
Some great information thanks Jacob. Thankfully it looks like the three bags I did not get from the boutique are in fact real. Best wishes.
I've learned so much, thank you
In 1998 I bought a ysl shopper from a nice black man in a street in Paris. He had a few things laid out on a cloth on the pavement. It looked great and very useful. I was much embarrassed when a school friend of my son graduated and then worked
for ysl. He adored my bag, befor he got tha job and then after. I didnt have the heart to disappoint him.
Sorry….was a Louis Vuitton like your small brown bag.
The loulou bags are calf leather. Not lambskin, and the feeling to the touch is real, because I have both, a loulou and a mini rectangle. Leather is a natural material and the fake bag looks too perfect, almost synthetic.
I had no idea the produce the same style or models for outlets. As far as I am concerned, the out let bags are semilar or complete different designs. Prada and Gucci do this and it is a disgrace.
Can’t believe I thought the fake one was the real one🤦🏼♀️and I have 3 real ones. What the hell…..
BUT now you’ve gone close up, it looks quite different.
ACTUALLY the further you go into it, the worse it gets. It’s a fake. Now obvious.
I could understand why someone would buy from second hand especially the country they live in. The bigger issue to me is I got the same camera bag not a year and a half ago mine was 1100 in boutique in Maryland that bag is now 1690 WTF..😮😮😮😮
This story still makes me so mad! Cosette was in the Rocks, Sydney which is a very fancy and beautiful area in the city and for them to be selling so many fakes (allegedly) I just feel for everyone who was scammed by this wolf in sheep clothing store
That’s why we have the saying .. not all that glitters is gold
Are they still open
It will be interesting to see how this whole story ends. Will the customers end up arriving to a locked door and empty store,
or maybe a conclusion that it´s actually not being fake bags, despite the accusations. Very very interesting🤔
The stitches on the real Saint Laurent Paris label look neater and the length is slightly shorter.
what beautiful house he has, love pinky room
I always buy mines straight from the shop.
This was a super video-very informative!!!
Thank you fuchsia 🙏🏻🥰💖 Glad it was helpful!
Cosette has their website up still selling bags!🤨
Is the Sydney consumer protection debt watching this you tube ????
Authentic Ysl leather is way better. It is hard to tell in pictures but it’s easier to tell In RL.
The real YSL bag has structure, the fake is sagging on the bottom. Usually in outlets they sell returns, overstocks, merch with imperfections and yes made for outlet items.
The Cosette bag wasn't stuffed but the real bag was stuffed with tissue
The real bag will also sag if it's worn without an insert/organizer. It doesn't have a hard/reinforced bottom.
@@gabriellamartins3384 Yes, I always use organizers to keep my bags looking good if the leather is soft!!
I have this bag for four years and the bottom doesn't s sag like the that even when it's empty.
I am fr Singapore. Bought a Gucci Opidia web camera bag frm them for S$1700. There goes my money. I don't think a refund wld works for me.
The wave on the back part appears due to wear against the body, it is well known con for this bag, however the real one here has unforgivable wave on the front.
I have got the same serial number with your guys, yes I bought the ysl lou Lou from Cosette. The Cosette fooled us 😢
Ar is Factory but I don't know if that's is ARS or is that AR 5 but I never heard of ARS or AR5
OT + about to watch - after all these years, think you lived in NJ at least as a kid - I am usually really good with accents and you are a very hard one to crack, lol! only know your mom is French hence your spot on pronunciation, ha!
I am confused about this - why were Cosette providing “certificates for authenticity” in the first place? I mean, they don’t sell pre-loved goods, then it will make sense. But they sell new merchandise. I buy most of my luxury goods from Harrods (department store in London) nothing comes with a “certificate of authenticity”- it just comes with whatever original packaging the brand is providing. It’s kind of weird- if they are an official YSL retailer why would they need to prove to you that what you are getting is real?!? It looks like a red flag from the get-go. Like somebody at some point questioned them (rightfully so) and now they are like - hey hey it’s real, we have a certificate, look at it, look at it 😅 I really hope everyone gets their money back as I don’t think they sold anything authentic tbh (my opinion, allegedly 😅). They maybe sent the influencers who were promoting them a real thing, everything else was counterfeit (my opinion, allegedly 😅). Hope authorities finally intervene too! It’s disgusting to think we as consumers have zero rights or protection 🙁
The cossete bag look much better .
No.2 is FAKE I thought if that not the case I stayed away from YSL, cuz the authentic one was poorly made as well in certain area.
Also this is the comparison of two bags. Two authentic bags can be different. It would have been more reliable, if the store manager would have brought two authentic bags to make the comparison among the three.
The ysl.bag number one that you're showing that you like could it have been made in the factory. I would love to see the tags on the inside of the bag I want to know if it has the letter F anywhere and the stamp. Which means factory-made lower-grade. Macy's will have the letter m Nordstrom's will have the letter n this is how they protect themselves so they don't get sued so yeah it could be a real bad depending on where it's made and what letter is in your bag from what I read if you don't have a letter in your bag then you know it's fake.
great video xoxo
Thank you Thomas 🙏🏻💖
1 cosette, the L is slanted and not centered.
If it’s no question asked it’s true
If you’ve paid with PayPal won’t you be covered against this?
#2 is real
Any news on fake Celine bags? I bought the Ava from Cosette in May 😣 I’m getting it authenticated by another party.
Oh please update when the result is out. Hope it's real
Hi, can someone please recommend a authentication service. I have 2 YSL bags from Cosette and absolutely no response to any emails. I'm going to Sydney in 2 weeks and will be getting straight into the store to sort this out if they are not authentic but want to use a reputable Authenticator
look, most of mel in melbourne staff are fake coz she can afford to buy original bags
The “fake” one looks better in my opinion. I like the Chevron and the slanted L in the YSL better 😅
both ysl bags are ugly
Cosette looks cheap. Also it’s sloppy. Real one looks structured.
# 1
Its obvious wjich one is real and fake 😂
Thank you for updating us on this story 👏🏼🩷
