The details are correct for an authentic bag but for confirmation please ask the seller for a clear and in focus picture of the hologram sticker revealing all the numbers and repost with the eBay link. Thanks.

I recently bought from fashionhula and was VERY pleased! My bag was at least $200-$300 less than other similar styles on ebay. I didn't want to bother my gal Belle who has been so great to me in the past so I paid a very nominal fee to one of the third party authenticators. I was pretty confident it was legit and it proved to be so. Good luck!

The bag in the pictures is fake.
Also, this seller has sold other flaps in the past which were questionable.

I can't comment on the authenticity, however I will comment on my opinion toward Vestaire Collective.

They claim to have experts and that they authenticate items however, they've had numerous instances of sales of fakes (deemed as genuine by their team of "experts") as well as deeming authentic items as fake.

Here's a recent post I made in this very subforum. regarding a listing for a fake on VC:
http://forum.purseblog.com/chanel-s...mat-outlined-1st-829807-348.html#post25713134

Here's the listing:
http://www.vestiairecollective.com/...d-leather-portefeuille-compagnon-780897.shtml

And here's just one other example of the discussion of other fakes on Vestaire Collective.

Personally, I wouldn't do business with a site that doesn't know how to authenticate and doesn't pull fake listings when the items are confirmed as fake.

I just noticed your initial statement questioning the seller's statement that the hologram had come off due to use and hence the legitimacy of the bag.

As CB mentioned above, the bag pictured is authentic. She does not mean that it is not authentic without the hologram with numbers, so I wanted to chime in just in case there might be any misinterpretation of her response about making sure you see the hologram. Stickers wearing or rubbing off happens with vintage bags a lot.

This being said, however, oddly despite the seller's statement, the interior shot on the listing does show a sticker present. If the interior shot is of the actual bag that is for sale, you can still ask to see it.

Hi CB :smile1: How's you my lovely? just happened to browse through, and noticed the above thread, I hope you don't mind me chiming in..
I don't think CB's post could be misinterpreted, she is already said the bag's authentic, and there is a HOLOGRAM sticker inside the bag, She is However, ask for Clear Focus photo, and this is certainly for a good reason, that's what make her an excellent authenticator.
PF is Very Lucky indeed to have her! :D

lmt51 I am not disagreeing with CB at all but to the contrary clarifying what she meant in the event the OP looks for a hologram number that is not there.

Also as CB noted the bag pictured is authentic. She did not ask the OP to repost with the hologram sticker but merely that the OP should ask for it for full reference prior to purchase. She didn't ask to see it again. Therefore I'm not sure what your point is. The purpose of this thread is to discuss authenticity of items; are you saying the bag's authenticity is in question by you? If so, please repost and clarify for all to see. Because otherwise I believe the rest of us are in agreement. Thanks.
