Item: Chanel M/L Classic Flap Black Caviar with GHW
Serial Number: 27336818
Listing number: 324170508849

Comments:
I just purchased this Classic flap. It did come with the an Etinceler authentication paper and the serial number does match. The thing that concerns me most is that it smells like chemicals, not like leather. I did read on the forum that some people had this problem even with purchases straight from the boutique. The caviar looks pebbled but feels smooth to touch (which could just be the batch). The leather in the interior pockets as well as the chain feel very thin. The hidden pocket zipper also has the EP engraving on it, and from my research on the forum, the 27 series does not have this? Also, it comes with the boutique card that is supposed to be stamped when you buy it, but it was not stamped. I have reached out to Etinceler to verify this authentication, and if you guys rule this as authentic, I might just send it to Leather Surgeons for further authentication and to get rid of the smell.

Also, I really apologize for the pic of the serial sticker. I spent an hour trying to get a better picture, but this is the best I could get :sad:

Update: Etinceler did verify that they authenticated this bag in-house. I would still like a second opinion, please. I really want this to be authentic as it's such a beautiful saturated black.

I re-uploaded the photos with a watermark. Please click on the album link to see them all, since it will say that some photos don't exist when you scroll through.
 
Hey, i'm hoping you can authenticate this (but i'm not sure if you offer authentication on sold items). I've seen this seller has been authenticated on here for many years so hoping for a good outcome.

Item: Chanel Black Quilted Personal Agenda Filofax Notebook
Serial Number: 12526986
Listing number: 303576562910
Seller: evelom_2003
Link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Chanel-Black-Quilted-Personal-Agenda-Filofax-Notebook/303576562910
Comments: I've purchased this agenda holder for my mum and she says it doesn't smell of leather and it doesn't look right. I've asked mum to send me photos of the item herself.
 
Hi please help me authenticate this purse, I just purchased a few days ago!


- Item name: Chanel Cc logo matelasse double flap chain shoulder bag


- Serial number: 136701

- Listing number: 283868409409

- Seller: Boom2hanten

- Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Auth-CHANE...hite-66LA491-/283868409409#vi__app-cvip-panel

- Comments:

The serial sticker is larger than any I have seen before with no cc logo on it maybe because it is older and 6 digit serial?

And for some reason the chain is only about 13.8” long (single not doubled)

Everything else looks legit , eclair zipper, lower stripe of “E” is longer, 11 stitch count on quilting, all the quilting lines up, nice heavy chain with no stitching on folded leather, there is a shop seal inside the zipper pocket.

I’m just so confused by the chain length.
thank you so much! :)

Hi! Can you please help me determine if this is authentic? Thanks in advance! :smile:

- Item name: Chanel Classic Double Flap Medium Lambskin
- Serial number: 27973470
- Seller: stockx.com
- Link: https://stockx.com/chanel-classic-double-flap-quilted-medium-black-lambskin-goldtone
- Comments: Please ignore the green StockX tag in the photos, I didn't want to remove it yet until I was sure of its authenticity.

Also, the chain length on my bag is SUPER short. When it is doubled up, it sits RIGHT UNDER my armpit. When it is just a single chain, it's too short for me to wear comfortably as a crossbody... I can only comfortably wear it on a single chain on one shoulder. Is this normal? (Apologies for my ignorance, this is my first time owning a Chanel.)
