17. I am personally VERY leery of people who sell necklace and bracelet sets. People who have authentic items like that will break up the set and sell them separately, to make more money. If the set or their feedback looks shady, it’s HIGHLY likely that they’ve combined a fake set to draw more attention and bidders. In all my time of researching tiffany jewelry on ebay, I’ve NEVER come across an authentic set. I’m not saying it couldn’t happen, just that it’s very unlikely.
18. In regards to the “double heart” necklaces I’ve seen floating out there, be aware that the hearts should NOT BE CURVED in any way, but should be shaped JUST like the hearts on Tiffany’s tag necklace and bracelet. ONLY THE LARGER, BOTTOM HEART IS ENGRAVED with Tiffany & Co. The top heart is BLANK! Also, the hearts hang at an angle from the chain, if you’re looking at the necklace, the chain should go through the LEFT side of the heart. The fake one’s have the chain going through the top of the hearts. Don’t fall for those necklaces that have both hearts engraved, or that have “curved” hearts, those AREN’T TIFFANY!!
19. If you got to this guide too late and are a victim of somebody selling fake Tiffany jewelry, go to: http://pages.ebay.com/help/contact_us/_base/index_4.html?tier0=report_listing.js&item=190134326682 and file a claim with ebay.
20. As far as those other tiffany websites out there, they are all FAKE. The only true Tiffany site is www. tiffany.com. If the website is called ANYTHING else, it’s a fake. Don’t fall into the mindset that if they have a website, they must be real, they’re not. I made the same mistake when I first started out, and I got my money back. I had to work very hard to get it back, make alot of threats and be very persistent. If you’ve fallen into the same trap, tell that website that you’ll turn them in to Tiffany if they don’t refund your money. Those little websites don’t want a giant like Tiffany to sue them, and that generally works.
The bottom line is Tiffany is a maker of FINE jewelry, and they would never let anything sub-par out of their store rooms. Don’t be fooled by people from other countries saying they have a “friend” who gets them Tiffany stuff for cheap, it can’t be done. Your best bet is to buy from someone who can tell you the store they bought the item at. The only way to get Tiffany jewelry is to buy it in the stores, the Tiffany website, or buy it from someone who bought it in a store. I know this is alot of information to take in, so please feel free to email me and I’ll be happy to check out an auction for you and tell you what I think.
Of course, by buying it from somebody else will often mean buying a used (pre-loved) piece of Tiffany jewelry, which is fine! When you think about it, why would somebody sell a brand new, never worn piece of Tiffany jewelry for MUCH LESS than they paid for it at the store or website? The answer is, they wouldn’t. If somebody has brand new Tiffany jewelry for sale, beware, it might possibly be a scam. I have purchased five pieces of Tiffany jewelry (all authentic) that were used, and they were in great shape! All it takes is a silver polishing cloth and some elbow grease to get a used piece back to it’s original state.
