Per the first post in the thread, this is what is needed to authenticate a bag. I bolded what is missing.
(it takes a lot more than pictures of an authenticity tag to determine whether or not a bag is real/fake)

Needed Pictures: Please make sure the item in question has clear close-ups of:
1. all logos including those on hardware and pressed into leather
2. both sides of the authenticity tag
3. views of zippers and zipper pulls **underside of both zipper pulls
4. views of the lining
5. outside views of all sides and bottom
6. views of hardware
7. mirror, both sides if applicable

Thank you. I don't have that much pictures of the inside of the bag. I guess I just have to wait for it to be delivered here. Then, I'll take pictures.

Okay. Please post your own pictures when you receive the bag.

Aww, thank you. That is very kind
Don't forget to reveal your bag when you get it.
(also, just FYI: different bags have different closures. The Roma and Olimpia bags have exposed magnetic snaps, to name just two off the top of my head)

Hi Von and Indiaink, I received the bag that you both so kindly helped authenticate. I sent it to the bag spa as the underside of the handle was a bit dirty. It came back and here is how she looks. Apologies for the not so sharp resolution. All photos taken under yellow light Thus I think the color comes out less mint green. Thanks tons for all the help.

I'd like to see a photo of the front and back of the white authenticity label on both: That's located inside the zippered pocket on the bag, and inside a slip pocket on the wallet, but to be honest, both of these look good. Beware the wear on the pink wallet - .

Thank you very much indeed!
I got the white authenticity label of Bottega Veneta (The Convertable) Handbag. Could you please help me to check them?

This label looks good. You'd need to check with a Bottega Veneta SA to find out what the code means.

Hi, I would like to authenticate this beautiful wallet of mine. You can see that the leather edging is very shiny. I used some leather Edge Kote to fix it because the edging was showing some wear and starting to split especially at the corners. I am in the process of sanding it down so it has a matte finish.

Thank you,
April

Not sure I understand? I don't have any other requests at the moment for authenticating anything other than this wallet. I think I only requested a authentication on a D&B bag a few months ago and a Fendi bag over a year ago

Please disregard, I believe it was directed at another member.

Yes, my apologies. No worries! As you know, your wallet is certainly authentic.
