My Gucci Ophidia Bag Is Fake | How did I find out.

Hi all ! I was wearing Faje Gucci Ophidia Bag bag for two years , without knowing it.

[@AayushiCienega]

Love *amzrepe* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other KZbinr can show off bags in as much detail as you.

[@michellehaywood1874]

what a nightmare! you are very kind to make a video to help others! even the receipt with it - makes me so nervous to buy pre-owned.

[@sococo1464]

Terrible that you had this experience. However, as a person who has never bought pre-owned because I'm fearful of having such an experience, this makes me feel better about possibly buying from fashionphile in the future.

[@heatherjames3693]

You used it for 2 years and didn’t know,it,was,fake -I say keep using it. I’ve lived in Korea on 2 different occasions and it is mind blowing how the fakes look like the real thing -exactly the same.

[@lovemesomelux4375]

Yep. That's what I was thinking.

[@SimplyRockin]

Wow, the exterior looks just like the real thing. I noticed the inside tag has 10 stitches across and the Gucci website picture has 12 and the logo stamp looks more deep than that of the authentic ones I've seen. I bought a pre loved LV once from a reputable reselling company and went crazy searching for pictures of the same bag sold on other sites. Found out that certain factories and years have different stitching but still couldn't trust so I went to LV to beg for them to fix anything so they would take it in and return to me if it wasn't real. Luckily, it was authentic. Still my heart beats fast every time I purchase a preloved item, hehe.

[@kevelyn5929]

Darn I am so sorry this happened to you this is exactly why I don’t purchase anything secondhand I always buy it direct from the boutiques

[@ednamode9436]

I'm no expert but I'm shocked because it looks so authentic especially after you had it for a while. Even the hardware looks legit 😱 makes you wonder how many fakes are being carried as real. The differences you mention are not even things a user would notice, like the font and lining. I'm shocked

[@lovemesomelux4375]

Me too!

[@AmzrepeBags-]

*amzrepx* The above bags not only have a complete range of styles and colors, but also have good quality and low prices. It can definitely be called the best bag production place!

[@dreamweaverp]

That leather flap where the metal GG looks suspicious. Also, like you said the lining does not look taylored.

[@sunshinemama9143]

Wow! Thank you for sharing. Maybe the texture of the canvas was off under a strong microscope! I think Entrupy uses this type of method to authenticate. Maybe you can ask them?

[@TheBarretShow]

Im so happy you recognize Entrupy. I had the same situation as well, we had the Entrupy results that came back negative and the seller just called me a liar. And she doesnt believe in Entrupy. She called entrupy a fake lol. Really had me crying because I paid for the whole thing.

[@rebecca2653]

My goodness! That DOES look authentic!! I'm sorry this happened to you. If you never tried to sell it, maybe you would have never found out it's not real. This is so sad.

[@BraitmanMaltos]

Me remembering nearly all the bags from the jag collection *topluxs* other apartment on the dimond tray.. I think I watched that video like 40 times. Purse collection goals.

[@marshabrown9263]

The hardware definitely looks a little lighter than the real one if you don’t have them side by side you can’t tell the difference. Since my experience on Mecari I only buy from the store or the outlet store no more second hand because they’re making fakes so real now and I don’t want to pay a lot of money for a fake bag

[@leonazhou3079]

I feel like this is one of those A grade bags that are made very well and close to the Gucci bag and some of these A bags (depending on how close it is to the original) can be sold pretty expensive. I'm sorry you had this experience 😢

[@YahayaKozlowska]

I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the HIDUPZ leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.

[@NicoleAngelina_]

Oh no :( I'm so sorry you experienced this! So difficult to tell that it's fake! Thanks for sharing your experience and so upset that you had to experience this again :(

[@degolyerkondratowicz]

I live in New York, thank you very much. I like lyxbag

[@mphomokoena6194]

What if you sent the real thing and they returned you the fake one? I mean you did not care to check before sending it therefore you wouldn’t have known if they had switched it.

[@trudybraiden5404]

Hi the stiches would be slightly in on an angle. the tag would have slight rounded edges

[@jemagonzales93]

Are you sure postmark did not switch your real bag to a fake bag ? You were probably scammed by poshmark

[@AngelCramer-wx2xe]

Thank you dear for taking us along. Can't wait what the *yutulu* queen picked up at Fendi

[@gailward3308]

The company you dealt with allowed a woman to sell me a fake bag. Instead of dealing with her, they threatened me because I asked for a receipt. I was very adamant and called them several times a day. They finally gave me site credit but I only had 30 days to spend it. Never did business with them again. It was an expensive bag too. Sad.

[@MsSahai]

Looks very authentic from the outside....even the fonts are a close match to the two Gucci bags I own. I've never done mercari only poshmark. And i do groups which is so very strict and because I adore vintage. Like u said lesson learnt! Just to let u know there are soooooo many scammers out there and as u can see fakes are sometimes made even better than some of the authentic these days.....sigh!

[@lovemesomelux4375]

Oh... I know..😔

[@mikalel7]

hey there i have the same bag. i bought it from the gucci store. but this looks just like the original! everything is seamless and perfect! i dont know what made it fake huhu im sorry to hear about your experience

[@WayneWilliams-o1z]

you’re literally my comfort person i love you 😍#Niceshopx😍

[@NanditoPira]

HEY COPYMAXS I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks formaking my day

[@sarahbur7007]

I'm sorry that happened to you..just looking at the bag there's a few things that I saw that looked odd. The leather looks off ( plastic looking). The canvas is dull flat and there should be a shien to it. The hardware should have some weight and the color of the gold on the hardware is to shiny. Stitching on a gucci bag shouldn't be straight,it should have an angle. Also the left side of the U in gucci should be bigger then the right side of the U. Under the zipper,gucci should be engraved on it..don't feel bad because it's a pretty good fake.

[@shawndean-m8y]

I almost bought a new LV handbag that was never filled. I'm so glad I saw this video and read all the comments. I'd rather buy a $100 bag with $1000 in it than any other *rrcopys* is good!

[@lautervillarruel]

No matter the appearance or the metal parts of the *hidups* bag, I believe that as long as you are not a practitioner, you will never see any difference

[@flabelsflabels]

If this is a fake ! 😂 hats off to the guy who made this ! Gucci should employ him 😊

[@lorigail5525]

I’m so sorry that happened to you. I have a Gucci ophidia but it is a clutch and has a different lining and bought from Gucci. The only thing I see is that the lining seems loose like it is too much fabric for the bag. It is so sad 😞.

[@joeyboy2013]

Sorry to hear what happened..but you never said anything about the smell.. because I bought a gg wallet that look so authentic like my wallet but the smell is what gave me the red flag. It smelled like plastic and I should of smell before buying it..😞

[@ReinerMirek]

Such a gorgeous collection! Your Jumbo black caviar with silver hardware is on my wish list for the same reasons that you stated! Lovely! LYXBAG

[@cecil3c]

Thats so sad, maybe the color of the metals can be an indication

[@Felicia-f4u3q]

Beautiful Bag . I will buy it

[@FahrenwaldSoga]

If you can tell if *topluxs* it’s a replica by the edge of a button or something like that, the replica is probably better quality than the original.

[@yesie8375]

I know this is an older video. But I’m considering buying that bag from the actual Gucci site and what i can say is that the inner lining is definitely a different color from the authentic one. The authentic one is a bit darker

[@VanessaVendetti]

I'm so sorry you were sold a replica. The biggest indicator of this particular bag being a replica is the front leather flap where the metal decals are affixed. You can see 2-3 stitch marks working their way across on both sides above the GG metal decal. Those stitch marks are not present on the real Ophidia GG small shoulder bag.

[@RFJrulez]

The older version of this bag did have the stitch above the logo. Recent ones don't.

[@empyrealwonder]

I bought the exact same bag from a gucci store and it has the stitch marks above the GG metal, so did gucci sell me a replica 🤔

[@RepolloLucerito]

For a long time, as the price of Chanel increased, I no longer thought I could afford it. I think I would be happy to have the lyxbag as my travel bag and not have to take care of it. By the way, I'm sure no one will have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the comparison.

[@AorobTchwella]

This LYXBAG tote is beautifully colored, very sturdy and the perfect size. Not too small, not too big.

[@ZelmiraMageste]

Love *gtdupe* So I bought a fake to be fashionable without wasting money. I was amazed by the quality of the fakes!

[@Gemini_DaBest]

it looks too real to be fake.

[@ShowtimeSynergy12]

The bottom is off, the corners, the tabs aren’t stitched all the way down, the lining color is completely off, the stamping font… I saw a lot of other things too. I have 20 Gucci bags and about 200 luxury bags. Immediately I can tell it’s a fake. So sorry this happened to you. I can’t imagine how frustrated you are.

[@ruthtamam3930]

This is a beautiful beg. Use it and enjoy. I would buy it from you today it’s a very nice beg.

[@deereyes5646]

It's a shame! One thing that I noticed comparing an original from a fake Gucci, is the number "9" in the serial number, the font style is different.

[@SimplyNieccee]

I hate this happened to you! The bag looks amazing though. A really good replica

[@taio9000]

Wow! That’s horrible. That’s was scared me about buying pre-loved.

[@snowsansa1527]

That is fake, the front logo hardware has no stitching on the top end middle, the original stitching in the front hardware logo is only in the form of U, not stitching forming like a C, same as the back flap with no GG logo, the stitching should be like letter U not Letter C. Plus the colour of the zipper is slightly different.

[@BrieDeschaine]

Your closet is simple a dream! Not just the LYXBAG bags but the ready to wear that you have is absolutely stunning.

[@lboogie2679]

The lining is very loose. Is that the way it is on the new version? That is not very luxe.

[@LizHughes-b2n]

I still love my LV reverse monogram *amzrepe* clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.

[@LuisjavierPachecogor]

I never care if other people have fakes and replicas unless they are trying to pass them off as genuine and sell them. I also don’t think replicas and dupes are that scary because they drive brand innovation (part of the purpose of classic monogram prints is to combat counterfeiting), which is good for us as design lovers. I guess I can understand people not wanting the same package as everyone else, but if it's a good *amzrepe* whether authentic or not, it makes sense that more people would want it.

[@marymayalbuquerque]

Mary May Montenegro 0 seconds ago I can only name two things 1. Canvas is lighter 2. The interior is too light, the real one is dark greenish/blue Also it should smell like leather. Also the biggest indication that it’s fake is the PRICE. $800.00 for an excellent condition for Ophidia small shoulder bag? It’s too good to be true. Bag is $1,600.00 + brand new.

[@AnnaMoye-q1o]

Yes the color of the *amzrepe* is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…

[@mphomokoena6194]

[@NainaModigliani]

I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 to compare materials etc. The real brooch cost $800 and was made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other one is a $40 one HIDUPZ Backpack Replica - also works for Compare - I can't find any difference and still use it for the gym

[@oliviaacosta6239]

I take a risk but only under $200 I bought a vintage Prada, Fendi, and bottega Veneta wallet , all under $200. The rest, my Chanel, YSL, Vuitton and Gucci I bought from the store.

[@marshabrown9263]

I ordered a bag from there too and I had to file a claim with PayPal which I got my money back .

[@kaleighkirby912]

Yes, the code number fonts are off and the qr code tag is off. I could not see the Gucci made in side clear enough to see if that's off. Just get authenticated before buying, or before return period is up

Omg! We have the same issue. Same same bag! and I sold it as well - that's when I knew that the bag was fake. It's really crazy. My seller didn't even bother digging up or tracing the bag, she was so defensive about it. We had the Entrupy results even that she didn't believe the results. The stitch that you have on top of the GG logo is also that thick on my ophidia. If you check the original gucci should be a thinner stitch. Ugh! I turned out as the bad person because I had the Entrupy results lol the Seller was defensive as AF. HAHA
