That's so scary!! Thank you for your time.
Maybe it isn't worth purchasing preloved?

I think it's not worth it. You can end up with an accurate fake easily. While we can do our best to authenticate from photos here, we cannot guarantee that the bag that you receive is authentic, especially when it comes to the Lady Dior and Diorissimo bag.

You also get a warranty for a boutique purchase, and a much better selection of colours.

hello all~After reading all the replies and I'm so happy that we have a group of very professional and knowledgeable members to help us authenticate dior items! :)


I have already bought a dior Diorissimo Canvas pochette from Japan and I have some doubts whether it's authentic or not (I was told by the shop that it's 100% authentic). But I do have doubts, especially for the Date code/ serial number of it: 02RU 0044, so is it a fake item? or a real one? I'm so worried!!


sorry that I don't have the URL of the images of the item :(


thanks all!!!!!!

hello all~


I'm new to this forum and am really happy to know that there is such a large group of nice, professional and knowledgeable memebrs to help authenticate dior items :)


I have already bought a dior pochette from a Japan store and am worried that it's not authentic (it's said that it's 100% real), coz I'm told by my friends that the date code/ serial no. of dior items MUST start with 2 letters, yet, my dior pochette's date code/ serial no. of the bag reads this: 02RU 0044


sorry that I can't provide any URL links to show the images of my pochette. (I have actually taken some photos of the bag, but it seems that it's not possible to upload jpeg/ bmp images)


so I'm really worried, so please help~ Did I just waste my money buying a fake dior item?


Thanks sooooooo much :)

There is nothing wrong with that serial number. Keep in mind, the word "Diorissimo" has been used. There was Diorissimo collection released during the mid 2000s; it looks nothing like the current Diorissimo collection now, but it did exist. It is best to upload actual pictures of the item when you receive it.

Looks good to me but I want another authenticator to take a look, since fake Lady Dior bags have gotten very accurate.

This bag looks OK.

For preloved, I would recommend that you go to the boutique and feel the leather on the LD first. If you do end up buying it, make sure to thoroughly feel the leather and try to compare it to the one you felt in the boutique. The superfakes that I have seen tend to have a rougher feel (poor dyed job causing the leather to dry out more or simply a low grade leather piece). Fakes have been getting good at replicating the stamps and charms, but the quality of the leathers on the bags are always lacking.

It ended at a great price, too. If I didn't already have so many bags, then I would've placed a bid on it too. I find that with so many bags, most of mine just sit around not getting used now. My Dior Homme monogram bags are getting the least use. I should make an effort to use them again.

It did end at a great price, but yeah so true! A lot of mine don't as well.

The picture of the back of the interior tag looks stretched and weird. Please request a better photo of the back of the tag,

Also, even with that picture, I can only say it looks okay (that is, if the back of the tag looks fine) but won't be able to confirm its authenticity. Fakes have gotten very accurate.

Dear averagejoe, thanks for your reply! i've attached a better quality picture for your view! According to your analysis, is there any other info that I need to request from seller in order to better authenticate it? Thanks so much for your reply!!

Dear Dior Authenticators,


Thanks ThisVNchick for the reply~


I'm uploading more images of my vintage dior Diorissimo Canvas pochette I bought from a Japan store, with the date code/ serial no.: 02RU 0044 (I phoned the customer service of the Dior official shop of my city and that cs staff also told me that it's IMPOSSIBLE for the date code/ serial no. to start with 2 numbers :( )


I actually typed "02RU 0044" on the yahoo search engine and I found out 2 links of the sale of dior bags (both SOLD OUT already) with the SAME date code/ serial no. BOTH of the sellers claimed that their item is 100% authentic, but the bags are of different styles. So, I'm confused. But my dior pochette looks like the same style as the pink one


the pink one listed on an online shop named "COUTURE": http://www.coutureusa.com/p-10296-christian-dior-pink-diorrissimo-canvas-small-shoulder-bag.aspx


the blue one on EBAY (the seller is from Japan as well): http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Auth-Christi...-Navy-Italy-Vintage-Good-C04355-/231627645727


Here are some more images of my dior pochette (I have uploaded the pics to the facebook photo album, see if you guys can see the pics):
