Hmm, not sure where to post this so I thought I ask the group which seems to have the most experience with these items.
I have noticed that over the past 1-2 months, there has been a number of Rimowa items on ebay which look suspiciously "different" from what can be found on the
www.rimowa.com website. No, these are not new models (like the hybrid) but rather, little details look different. Things like the shape of the TSA lock, the position of the Rimowa logo ... all in the details. I'm not sure if they are "fakes" or just somehow different. Hoping that you might be able to chime in.
For example, take a look at this (
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rimowa-Cabin...#ht_686wt_1396) or search ebay item number (180775065113). It looks like the Salsa cabin trolley. But on closer examination, a couple things look different.
- Lock is different in shape
- Inside separators are not the same configuration
- If I recall correctly, the way the "Rimowa" hangtag attached is not the same
What caught my eye was that the seller did not put a "model" in the product description. I was wondering what model it was and took a closer look.
Anyone with a similar piece can confirm?
