That said, what made you confident that your Ferragamo glasses were fakes? How did you know for sure?

If Armani doesn't want their name on of the proposed designs, Guess or Lacoste will instead. Nothing changes in regards to materials or manufacturing. So instead of it being $500 glasses, they would end up being $80 because of the name licensing.
Also, your specific mention of Gucci is wrong. You piqued my interest, so I checked with Google AI, since I did not know how Gucci handled sunglass production. Here is what Google AI states:
Kering Eyewear is a part of the Kering Group, a luxury conglomerate that owns Gucci.
Kering Eyewear holds the exclusive license for the design, development, and distribution of Gucci eyewear.
While Kering Eyewear is responsible for the overall management, they may partner with other companies for manufacturing, and production often happens in Italy and Japan.

All comments in this forum that claim or suggest that items offered for sale are or could be counterfeit can be reliably disregarded. The chance of an airplane crashing into your house never zero, but just because that possibility exists doesn't mean any normal person takes any steps to prepare for that happening. Same thing.
The stuff here are 100% legit, anybody telling you otherwise doesn't know what they are talking about. They just get recycled products or out-of-season products constantly.
They don't know. One weakness of low entry barrier forums is that it's an easy way for people to express their relentlessly negative emotions that nobody in real life will listen to. I mean, it's the tone of nearly every discussion thread in this forum. On the counterfeit issue specifically, they have no knowledge whatsoever, be it sunglasses, colognes, razors, etc. Either their expectations are screwy to begin with or they simply don't know how to use the product. I've never seen a single even remotely credible report of counterfeit items posted to this board, and I've been here a hell of a lot of years. Any "evidence" presented is simply unsubstantiated reports used to support other unsubstantiated reports in an infinite loop. Eyewear retailing is a ferociously competitive market, so in addition to the usual dealcrapper profile that regularly show up, you can probably add Eyedictive competitors as well to the makeup of the mob.

I don't think most of them fake or at least really high quality fakes after researching. I think since they're usually they're the less popular models, the glasses themselves can be crappy or manufactured in a crappier way than they used to be.
You'll see a lot of people complain in general on the internet about their sunglasses just being lower quality than the older ones they're replacing, probably because they're owned by Luxottica as mentioned above.

Summary: these are probably very good fakes, with the possibility that some of the inventory is real on the website. When other SD'ers have reached out to the OEM's of the sunglasses a few brands have said this site sells fakes. If EyeDictive is buying from third party distributors (likely) there's really no good way for them to vet authenticity and perhaps they turn a blind eye as well.
I got a Tumi aviator that looks really nice, but the lenses had irregular uniformity.
Only buy at less than $20 - $25 and low expectations and you'll be good.

I've probably placed 20 orders and none of the glasses seemed fake - however, if you buy a high end brand for $30 expect that they are the bottom of the barrel value line like what Eddie Bauer sells at Costco or their outlet stores. Doesn't mean they are "fake" but they are low end made by an aspirational brand that is trying to sell to a different market.
Using this post as an example, HUGO is like Kenneth Cole Reaction - def not up to par with the flagship brand.
