Dear ladies and authenticators,

I am asking for your immediate help and advice. I purchased a Céline Box Bag from eBay under the assumption that it was authentic. I paid for the bag with PayPal. Once I received the bag I had my doubts, so I went over to ***************** and they confirmed that the bag is indeed not authentic.

I have opened a case and I uploaded the Written Statement from *****************. I just received this reply from eBay: (...) "Iam afraid that as the document was provided from third party, we can not consider it as valid and we would require a document from the manufacturer confirming that the item is counterfeit. Once we confirm that document from our end, we will go ahead and help you to claim a refund for the item."

As far as I know, Céline does not provide documents about authenticity to bags that were purchased on eBay. Is there anything I could do at this point? A service I could contact? Is anyone familiar with this process? I only know I could try PayPal.

I hope you can help me :-(

Best,
Sanne

Initiate your claim through Paypal,they will freeze the money in sellers account and they do accept certain 3rd party authenticity reports (pre-approved check their list or call them) the problem is it has to be a specific report and they can be costly if it comes to that, but if the seller disappears or doesn't answer to the claim they will pay out on it once the item shows delivered back to the seller.

I paid for a service to authenticate it a while back and it came back, today, all clear :smile:
Got my certificate and all. I can't delete the post but feel free to skip over it!

Authentic, based on the branding stamps and corner detailing on the bottom of the bag. You can also tell by the way the handles are secured (stitching is double reinforced and materials are layered for additional security)

Hope that helps and enjoy your new bag!
