Hello,
Here is the originality tag of mini Jodie. I have doubts about it because looks different from other BV bags I have. The way it is attached to the bag and the letters seem wrong. What do you think?
Photos are insufficient. Please see page one of this thread for needed photos.
Especially: Clear, closeup of both sides of authenticity tag, Clear closeup of heatstamp, underside of zipper, zipper pull(s), bottom of bag etc....
Also, where did this bag come from?
From what I see so far, it doesn't look good.

Hello! Thank you for your reply. This bag was listed Vestiaire Collective. Unfortunately, no more photos. The seller got mad when I said that the originality tag does not look right. First of all, the edges of the tag are too even and sharp. And secondly, the tag is sewn into the lining the other way around: not where the numbers are, but where “originality certified” line is. You know what I mean? :) that made me suspicious.
 
Can you see the difference between the white bag’s tag and the rest?

Who makes this? Where is the Bottega Veneta stamping and authenticity tag? Unless it states on the wallet that it is BV, it’s not BV.
 
Hello again, ladies! I have just googled that “originality” number and what I got… :shocked:
As I wrote above, “it doesn’t look good”
The reason I ask for the specific photos is because people sew authentic tags into fake items. This happens a lot - unfortunately. I will never ever authenticate an item based on seeing ONLY an authenticity tag.
Hi lovely ladies, I am wondering it you see any red flags with this bag.
thank you so much!
Missing ALL required photos. Could be authentic... you won’t know until you receive it. I don’t understand why it’s difficult to photograph the two must important things on a bag. Or how TRR can expect to sell a $12000 Hermès bag without proper photos. It’s cray.

Thanks VON1B2. I wish TRR would post more photos...or at least have an easy return policy for bags instead of final sale. I appreciate your time.

I've always been able to return "final sale" TRR bags if there was a valid reason for it (not just deciding I didn't like it). They'll ask for pics of the issue but are generally pretty accommodating in my experience.

Hello, after having learned in this thread that pretty much every bag should be checked unless it was bought directly from BV, I got a little nervous :oh:. I’ve got this one from a multi brand store in Italy. What are your thoughts on this one? Thanks in advance!
