Authenticate This

[ewhitake]

Hi All-
I had posted this to the regular Chanel forum but was told it didn't go there. I hope I have it right this time.

I'm in love with this bag but can't figure out if it's fake or not:
eBay: Authentic New CHANEL Small White Tote Bag Handbag Purse (item 280093390410 end time Mar-20-07 04:41:54 PDT)http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...E:L:RTQ:US:1&viewitem=&item=280093390410&rd=1
Up to this point I've been more of an LV and Alexander McQueen kind of gal. I need some assistance

Thanks
E

Here is the thread where you can post authentication questions:

I believe the auction you listed is of an authentic bag, but I would ask for a picture of the hologram just to be sure.

Thanks- I'm such a dummy. I know what a hologram is but where is it on a Chanel bag?
Thanks

You're not a dummy! On this bag the hologram sticker will be on a leather tab that is sewn into the interior lining of the bag. The numbers on the hologram sticker will match the numbers on the authenticity card. But beyond that a picture of the hologram will go a long way in determining authenticity. So far the fakers are still getting the hologram wrong.

Thanks for the information. I asked to see the hologram, made the purchase and am very happy!
Thanks again!
