Something weird going on here...

This is an auction that I bid on, then lost http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...m=220020091883

Feedback for the seller was left on August 25
Feedback by the seller was left on August 27

However, the seller contacted me on August 25 and asked me if I was still interested in purchasing the bag---at my high bid (MUCH lower than the price won for).

She is now reselling it again http://cgi.ebay.ca/NEW-LOUIS-VUITTON...QQcmdZViewItem

Item was listed at 13:36, she left FB for the original winner at 13:38, on the same day.

Multiple accounts????

Perhaps the winning bidder didn't like it? or there was another issue, and there was a return?

The bag doesn't look very authentic to me. Maybe the other buyer thought the same and wanted to end it peacefully.

I have no idea what is going on here, but the buyer contacted me yet again, even though the auction just ended today.

Katie - I had asked the seller to send me additional photos, which I had authenticated by someone else (appeared real). It doesn't matter though, I ended up purchasing another speedy from another seller, and had it authenticated at an LV store in Vancouver on the weekend Whoo hoo!

What do you mean by certificate? There's normally not a certificate. If you're talking about those two tiny cards, depending on the SA they'll give it to you or they wont.

Sounds like shill bidding to me.

There is no authenticity card with LV but many people would call the tag(s) that. Usually a LV comes with 2 tags, one has the name of the bag and the model number on it and the other has the make of the material on ot. Odd times, the SA would accidentally include the tag with barcode on it too. Also some rarer or limited editions come with a care booklet.

2 sets of locks? Lucky gal!The SA must have not seen the one on the bag and gave you a new set. Nice!
