Authenticity Guaranteed
Counterfeiting is an enormous and growing problem. It’s not just that consumers get tricked with inferior copies of goods. Counterfeiting hurts the designers and all the people who work hard to create these spectacular things. It’s not only illegal; counterfeiting hurts the hard-won prestige of these brands and harms their tradition, identity and image.
ideeli encourages you to support these brands by boycotting counterfeits.
In the vast majority of cases, if an item’s price seems too good to be true, it is – and the item is likely a counterfeit. ideeli can offer these items at amazing prices because our low prices are subsidized by our sponsors, and revenue from ideeli 1st Row memberships.
Even so, given the sophistication of the counterfeiters, it’s possible to unwittingly source items that are in fact fake.
So ideeli goes to great lengths to ensure that our items are 100% authentic.
- All items we sell come direct from the manufacturer, or from an authorized wholesaler, dealer, or outlet center.
- Each lot of items we sell has a documented path back to the manufacturer or authorized dealer.
- Our buyers have over 40 years of combined experience in the luxury goods and fashion industry, and have worked for some of the most successful brands in marketing, sales and production, so they know how to avoid problems that would catch less experienced buyers.
- Each item in a lot is inspected to confirm its authenticity.
If you have concerns about the authenticity of an item you have received from us, please contact us.
