So my first post ever on here... and I want to know if I owe someone an apology.

Item Name (if you know it): They claim it to be a Chloe Paddington, but I used to own that bag and do not remember this style ever existing...
Link (if available): (please make sure link works): https://www.etsy.com/listing/191991157/chloe-paddington-womens-brown-bag-with

I like to look at vintage Chloe on Etsy and this bag popped up... If it were a Paddington bag as they claim, it wouldn't fit Etsy's Vintage criteria and I sent the seller a note telling them (matter of fact, no emotion, etc) that I had never seen that Paddington bag and they might want to research to find out if it's authentic if they don't know who it came from or what the bag it actually is (if not the Paddington) and that it didn't fit Etsy's vintage policy and Etsy has become more stringent with shops breaking rules - shutting them down, etc so to be careful.

They sent me a heated email back telling me that I was ranting at them, rude to suggest they were selling a fake bag, that it had been authenticated by MyPoupette (which I doubt, because they didn't state that - or its authenticity ANYWHERE in the listing) and claim the original owner had ties to the fashion business etc and that I'm just some sour blogger who is rude. They finished it off with some snippy sarcastic "Bonne Weekend!"

I responded back that I didn't think I was being abrasive, but that even if I was wrong about the authenticity I was not wrong that Chloe Paddington bags are not at least 20 years old (as per Etsy's vintage guide). That I wasn't just a blogger who loved the brand, but someone who has owned a Chloe Paddington and that I found it interesting that they didn't disclose that the bag had been authenticated by MyPoupette.

They responded telling me anger and rudeness emitted from my messages and they have been in customer service for 25 years and have never met anyone so rude and that they were done with me. Meanwhile they had told me after my first message that I was ranting and rude. Which isn't great customer service skills at all.


TLDR: I want to know if I'm wrong or not... and if I am I plan on apologizing for the authenticity sentiments.

Hello,

I would love for some help authenticating this Marcie medium! I purchased locally for a very good price, I went to Holt Renfrew in advance to get a feel for the "real bag" and trusted my judgement so far that it is real, but who knows... I hope I'm right! Thank you in advance. :)

Item Name : Black Chloe Marcie Medium Satchel
Link (if available): Not Applicable, bag is in my possession

Item Name: See By Chloe Messenger Bag

Hi I've recently bought a See By Chloe bag on ebay which came with an authenticity card but when I received it the card didn't match the serial number on the bag. The seller got really annoyed with me questioning if it was authentic and claimed to have sent the wrong card in error, but doesn't seem to have the right card! Am I being paranoid, could someone advise if this is real or not please? The serial number on the bag doesn't seen right either, really difficult to read...
Thanks for your help!

Hi, can someone recommend an authentication service other than Authenticate4U? I've sent at least 5 different emails & left voicemails but Authenticate4U has not been responsive to me & it's going on 3 weeks. Any referrals would be greatly appreciated.
