Hi girls,
this is my first time venturing into the chanel side of the forum! I usually stick to brands like chanel, lv or prada so I am not very good with authenticating items.

My sister is interested in this bag on Gumtree but I don't want her to buy a fake!

This is the link:

Please help me with this wallet.

Although Vestaire Collective claims to have "expert authenticators," I've read on TPF about fakes that were sold and authentic items that were deemed as fake. :( This makes me nervous.

Item: Chanel Wallet
seller: sylvie
Link: http://www.vestiairecollective.com/...d-leather-portefeuille-compagnon-780897.shtml

Comments: Someone posted a comment alleging that it's fake although VC replied that they have a "quality control team."

Thanks in advance! Based on what I've read about VC, I tend to trust the authenticators here over their quality control team. :)

Thank you.

Perhaps Vestaire Collective needs to get a better team of authenticators on board!

Hi BB, I agree, I recommend that members use a third party authentication service post purchase from this site. Here is a link to member's experiences, including mine. http://forum.purseblog.com/general-shopping/vestiaire-collective-experiences-771028.html

Rules for posting in this thread:

  • This is a free service. The authenticators are volunteers providing their opinions, and who desire to keep counterfeiters and dishonest sellers from profiting from their trade, and to help buyers find authentic items.
  • Authenticators are not required to answer all posts and, for various reasons, some may not be answered.

Reasons why some requests may not be answered:

  • It is the preference of the authenticators on this thread not to give authentication to members who buy and resell bags.
  • It is the preference of the authenticators to comment on current, not closed, auctions and sales.
  • It is also the preference of the authenticators to give authentication to members who post in a range of threads, not just requesting free authentication for designer items.
  • We will not authenticate for those who post photos only and cannot provide a link to a live online auction/sale.
  • If your request is not answered here, for whatever reasons, professional authentication services are available outside of PF.

Thank you.

Well the photos look ok, but it's preferable to have the "full picture" because a lot of things go into account not just the photos. That's why viewing the full post is most helpful.

Please post authenticity questions related to CHANEL in this thread. This thread is a continuation of the previous authentication thread that has been closed for posting: http://forum.purseblog.com/chanel-shopping/authenticate-chanel-read-rules-use-format-outlined-1st-798249.html

Please follow the following rules:

Before you submit a request for authentication, please search this thread to make sure that the item has not previously been authenticated. This is in order to prevent duplication requests and to make it simpler for people to 'search' for items which may have been posted previously. This is not a thread to ask general questions about CHANEL, please refer to our main CHANEL forum for such information.

This is a free service, but it is imperative that you help our authenticators by using the following format:

Item:
Listing number:
Seller:
Link:
Comments:

Please give us as much information as you can and then attach any pictures (all authentication must include pictures).


  • Authenticators are not required to answer every request and it is their right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format.
  • Authenticators are not employed by tPF and do not represent tPF.
  • Please note that comments on price and condition are NOT permitted.
  • Please limit your request to one (1) per post; otherwise it gets too confusing keeping them all straight.
  • Do NOT PM an authenticator or moderator to request authentication. Any and all such requests must be posted in this thread.
  • To ensure that additional pictures requested are seen by the authenticators, please utilize the quote feature or provide a link to your original request and response. Failure to do so may result in your query not being answered.
Should one of your items be questioned in this thread, you are welcome to provide additional pictures or materials briefly supporting its authenticity.
Do not handle your disputes with other members in this thread but take your differences to Private Messages. Failure to do so can result in banning.

Disclaimer

All Authenticate This threads on tPF are meant to provide assistance to shoppers who are uncertain about the legitimacy and authenticity of designer goods. The evaluations posted by tPF's members are only opinions that stem from personal experiences as shoppers and collectors. They are not legally binding or professional authentications and are not to be treated as such.
