Buckle up, friends.

Preface: we are not in the USA.

About two years ago, my mum’s gorgeous alligator Kelly 32 was stolen. We know exactly who did it (can’t share too much since it’s an active case), but let’s just say there’s zero doubt.

This guy had the audacity to list it on Facebook first. Yes, really. Then he moved to eBay. Both listings disappeared, maybe it sold, maybe he realized he needed to go the “luxury reseller” route.

Fast forward to now: we just found the exact bag listed (and sadly, already sold) on Fashionphile.

We’re currently trying to contact them with proof that it was stolen and info about the person who listed it.

  • Does anyone have experience with something like this?

  • Can Fashionphile be held accountable for selling a stolen bag?

  • Would the buyer have to go after them if the bag gets seized as evidence?

The trial is ongoing where we live, and a police report has been filed in the USA also.

Any advice or insight would be SO appreciated!
