Hi guys, need a little help here on Rayban sunglasses if you wouldn't mind.

I'm thinking of buying a pair of these aviators:

http://www.sunglasses-shop.co.uk/uk-sunglasses/Ray-Ban-Sunglasses/Ray-Ban-3025-Aviator-Gold-00158-58mm-Polarised/2582.htm

They're €135 on the website versus €190 in The Sunglasses Hut. Wouldn't mind a bargain but don't want to be ripped off on a pair of fakes at the same time.

Is this Supreme Kate Moss t-shirt fake? It probably is as I've not got a clue about Supreme, it doesn't look the right shape around the collar?




Thanks

what a divv.
i didnt see that sale cos he didnt post the link, just the pics, but another way to spot a fake 'anything', even from reputable dealers is when they write
'a friend bought this for me from japan rtc'.
covers they arse cos they can say im so sorry just in case someone clued up buys the fake shit and complains, if a donut buys it and doesnt moan, they win all round…ya git me?

Thanks for the help. I know you've already said this other one i showed you seemed OK Best but just to double check with anyone that can help, does this look legit?

Edit: looks a bit dodgy around the left eye. Too much of a ball ache trying to find a real one so gonna leave it unless someone lets me know it's defo 100% real. Again, thanks for the help.

Dont know why someone would fake a £20 watch but 'Timex style' is putting me off.

Dont fancy paying Oki-Ni rinse prices when its the silver im after anyway.

'This Brand New Genuine Men's Timex Digital Watch come's in the Original Timex Box and Warranty Card'

Make of that what you will. I was watching one of his auctions a while back. He must have a few of those.

I think the Timex is genuine, just a bad choice of words in his title. He has a returns policy so i would reckon it's a safe bet.

Yeah but I doubt I could spot a fake Timex if it was in my hand even, whats going to give it away, that it feels light and cheap Eye-wink

that fake kate moss tee is brilliant - I think I prefer it to the genuine article, the fact it looks nothing like her adds something to it.
