      @@MalkaLux Just discovered that the item I purchased is fake :( it's sooo top quality fake that it was so difficult at first to tell. It had the stamps in all the right places, but upon more careful inspection and comparison to real bracelet, I noticed subtle things like the circular link which attaches the chains to the motif was oval instead of perfectly round. The serial number printed on the plate was not aligned perfectly in the middle. Worth also mentioning that it did not come with certificate, the seller said they misplaced it.

      Malka Lux working on it, since purchased through PayPal I’m not too worried. But it’s just shocking how sophisticated they have become with counterfeit products! Thanks for making these videos to educate on this!

    The Japanese power seller market on eBay is where I purchase vintage designer things when it comes to eBay. Their counterfeit laws are some of the strictest in the world. eBay also stands behind anti counterfeit laws and if I suspected something was fake before doing my research and I already purchased it, they will grant a return regardless if a seller says no returns.

    • @MalkaLux
      @MalkaLux  2 роки тому

      Absolutely, the Japanese sellers on eBay also have the widest selection of hard to find designer items as well. They ship super fast too.

    I purchased a Cartier Santos watch from a reputable EBay jewelry store. It’s authentic, for $2400. I love the Alhambra. Sadly, I only have replicas. But from your video, it’s apparent my replicas aren’t that good! The one you are wearing is my favorite 😍

    • @MalkaLux
      @MalkaLux  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for sharing! The Cartier Santos is a really beautiful watch and timeless as far as design- I think you got a great price! Alhambra is my favorite line that VCA has and I would say it is worth saving up for. I wear my VCA Alhambra pieces every day and after all these years I have never tired of them. 😍
