1. Sorry your request is not clear; if it's a one-off photos only request, please follow that proper format and do not attach a photo collage of thumbnails but the actual photos as detailed in post 2 and follow proper format
2. yes TBQ is in Taiwan; this is why you have to be careful on Malleries to make sure that you know where the seller is shipping from, because you may get hit with customs duties. Malleries is notorious for trying to hide seller origins but that's an illegal practice since the buyer has a legal right to know they are importing an item from out of country.
Hi --- thank you for letting me know. I uploaded the pictures individually. Please take a look. I hope this will help in authenticating this bag. I noted my concerns in my original posting, but the bag does look authentic.
Here was the verbiage from my original post:
Item Name (if you know it): Chanel Black Quilted Lambskin Classic Jumbo Flap Shoulder Bag
SERIAL NUMBER: 4571868
Link (if available):
Seller: TBQ International
Who took the pictures: SELF
History of the bag: As noted above, TBQ International (based in Taiwan, I didn't know) sent me the wrong bag. The bag they sent appears to be in better condition than what I purchased, however because they sent me the wrong bag, I don't know if its authentic. Here is what I'm concerned with.
1. The leather is slightly dry\harder than what I would expect of lambskin. Could be due to little use?
2. The picture of the chain... in the picture you will see the front and back of a part of the chain. In the photo the leather doesn't inter-twine on one of the links. Its almost as if that is where the leather starts and stops. You will also see there that the leather slightly overlaps each other.
The Interior doesn't have the CC logo on the inner flap, but the leather is tight and not loose. The inner lock looks authentic. The outer CC does have the inscription on the upper left. Serial code is fully intact and font and CC logo on the sticker appear legit. Zipper appears legit. The MADE IN FRANCE is almost not present but the CHANEL logo is clear
Thank you in advance - t
