Nice video. The dupe looks bigger to me. However, the agate does come in various shades of blue. My SA’s necklace is a dark blue, almost navy. When I was considering the bracelet, the one I looked at was an ocean blue/royal blue. I prefer authenticity, but it's not my business.
I was going too fast lol yes the dupe is bigger but I accidentally said the original 🥴 i do remember being told that no 2 stones will be identical but on the dupe it’s noticeably darker so idk. I definitely prefer the authentic as well ! But at $5K I completely understand why one would opt out 😫😫 thanks for watching ❤️

If you are buying pre owned, You can't go by length or number of links because some people add or remove links for their desired fit. It's easier to tell the fakes with the yellow gold. White gold is where ppl will run into the problem with the fakes.
Valid point with pre owned items. My guess would be that if there’s a chance I would sell my item, I wouldn’t make any alterations to the links as this can decrease my chances of finding a buyer. But still a very valid point ! Thanks for engaging ❤️
Thank you so much for this video! I nearly bought a fake for 650 dollars on Ebay and thanks to your detailed video, I see I was going to buy a fake that looked real with the real box but the clasp is like the clasp of the fake one!
WOW! Thanks so much for sharing this ! If sometime retails for $5000 and someone is selling it for as low as $650 (think about how much you would sell it for) then it’s a huge red flag. So happy I could help ❤️
Beautiful original! I can definitely tell the difference, however the dupe is decent. I also purchase dupes for travel where I don’t feel comfortable wearing my authentic pieces. Great video.
Hi! Thank you for this video! Btw - what are your thoughts on these Etsy retailers selling “VCA Alhambra” bracelets and necklaces? The bracelets and necklaces average around 1600-2k and they have some with the ‘diamonds’ for 3500-4k. They seem identical to the real and I wonder if they are, but black market.
The brand been here since the late 80s, it’s only getting bigger I don’t think it will go out of style but will have a price drop in the next 5-10 years
@ I think it will, Tiffany have been here for long time and isnt going anywhere however they are just not a thing in the vast majority of the community. Just a certain class. I was rocking their silver Tiffany bracelet and ppl were also selling dupes. Do they still sell those bracelets? Yes, are you seeing them all over the place? No! Same will happen with VC. They have other fine pieces that most of us cant afford.
@@debbiieesmiles You cant really compare those two lol Tiffany and Co is a lower tier unless you get it customized, compare VC to like Cartier, they just opened up a couple stores where im from, but then again only time will tell

Ya I wanted to buy a black one
And been checking o Etsy for some pre owns. But selling a 5000$ piece for 1200$ just raise so many concerns
That’s very concerning and probably not authentic. Try fashionphile for authentic pieces

The dupe is definitely decent given the price point. Thank you ❤️❤️

The agate being clear took me out 😂😂
Completely see through 😫😫😫😫
Where did you but the dupe from ?
Dh gate
Honestly the difference is so subtle who care if you got the fake version
@@meowzzies everyone can buy what they choose. I personally can see the difference
Only difference when they're next to each other.... 😂😂 Im getting the dupe before you know it VC will go out of style .

@@mitdelomusic9002 ok! 😂😂 I thought I could! Im no luxury expert! 🤭 Wait, you said Tiffany is lower tier! Im going to have to disagree.
@@debbiieesmiles yes lower tier unless it’s a custom piece
I like the blue in the fake....take my money!!
@@samplerstitcher 🤣🤣
