Post 1of2

Hello! I bought several supposedly new items off a poshmark seller recently, and sadly, I believe each and everyone of them is a fake. In hindsight, I want to smack myself over the head to be so naive and expect such "too good to be true" prices, but alas, here we are. Since the items belong to different brands, I'll go ahead and post about them in their separate forums. In the posts below, I will be addressing two Chanel items (each with their individual post):

Item 1) a pair of shoes
Comments: The logo centering off, the captoe is unevenly sized with the black fabric upper having glue/air holes, and the CC pendants on the side are badly placed. And this is not to mention the industrial smell to them. Overall, not the quality I would expect from Chanel :/

Thank you!

The bag in the pictures is authentic.
Thanks for taking the login shot
In the future please also follow the requested format in Post 1 so that we have it in our database


Thank you Roku! So very very nice of you to take time for authentications in this hard time of your life. Hope you have good support from family! Thank you once again!

PS. Just a question, the thing about the requested format that I missed, was it to write the serial number? Or was it more that I missed?

Item 2) a Chanel brooch
Comments: There is no oval plate of any kind.

Thank you!

the serial # is actually on the hologram sticker
The bag in the pictures is authentic.
Serial is 18283002
In the future you need to include this in your request

Thanks so much, and for some reason I had not scrolled far enough for the serial number. I purchased the bag. Thank you again so much for your hard work, I feel like a jerk to have asked your assistance whilst you went through personal turmoil. Kuddos to you for being back and working hard again. You're too nice!
 
My condolences to you and your family Roku. Thanks in advance for taking the time to review my request.

Item Name (if you know it): Chanel Wallet on Chain (Woc) in Black Caviar Leather with Gold Hardware
SERIAL NUMBER: 19235194
Link (if available): https://flic.kr/s/aHskvJ2jBU
Seller: Kijiji Seller
Who took the pictures: I have taken these pictures
History of the bag: The Woc was purchased in 2014 by the Kijiji seller. I purchased the Woc from the Kijiji seller a couple days ago (March 2016) in person.
Comments: Since the original ad is no longer up I created a Flckr photo album to display the pictures since I took around 50. Sorry if I'm overzealous but I wanted to provide you with as much detail as possible.

See all photo's at this link: https://flic.kr/s/aHskvJ2jBU

Thanks again and take care!
 
Because there is so much time that has passed between authentications, I will start from requests from 3/8 for practicality sake as I realize that any posts between 3/5 and 3/8 may be moot to authenticate as it has been several days. So, if your request was between 3/5 and 3/8, please re-post your request if you still need help

s I am not familiar with this seller at all:

Item: CHANEL Burgundy Red Gold Classic Quilted Caviar Leather Maxi Large Flap Bag New
Serial Number: 16745539
Listing number: 252284176311
Seller: thedollyllamaboutique
Link: http://m.ebay.com/itm/CHANEL-Burgun...i-Large-Flap-Bag-New-/252284176311?nav=SEARCH
Comments: the bag looks good but the price is too reasonable for a brand new bag. Date code suggests the bag is from 2012 so has it been sitting in someone's closet unused for four years

Normally your request would be skipped as we don't auth jewelry or shoes on this thread but I know you need some info. I'm not sure what Poshmarks's policies are, but look to see if you need a report to prove if these are counterfeit. I think you have reason to be concerned, at least with the shoes, and possibly the brooch. If so, you can use one of the two recommended online auth sources we suggest-if you scroll back they are mentioned in Roku's sig link.

You can also post these in the shoe and jewelry threads, someone there may be able to give you another onion, but you still may need a written report if it's required for a return.

No if your request was 3/5 or before, or 3/8 or after then it was skipped intentionally
This one is because it's a 20+ mil classic
See my signature please
