Please also note:
  • It is the buyer’s responsibility to assess condition and decide if it’s acceptable.
  • Prices, valuations and details will not be discussed.
  • It is the preference of the authenticators on this thread not to give authentication to members who buy and resell scarves as an ongoing practice.
  • It is also the preference of the authenticators to give authentication to members who post in a range of threads, not just requesting free authentication services.
  • If your request is not answered here, for whatever reasons, professional authentication services are available outside of PF.
  • Authenticators are not required to answer every request, some may not be answered for various reaons, and it is their right to ignore a request.
  • Please do not intervene to confront a troll or rudeness on the boards, just use the REPORT function to alert the mods, and let them handle it from there. In the meantime, just ignore the poster until a mod can intervene.
  • Always be respectful when you post and treat others as you expect to be treated.
  • Do NOT PM an authenticator or moderator to request authentication. Any and all such requests must be posted in this thread.

Without the above information and current for sale status there will be no authentication
 
I probably posted this in the wrong area - please move as needed. My main question is whether scarf labels really look like this now? No further authentication needed beyond that. I figured out that Parme referred to on the label is mauve, and I don't wear mauve.

Item: Sous L'Egide De Mars CSGM
Item number: 132771849474
Seller: julie4kids (no visible Hermes history but has good ratings for prior sales)
Listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NIB-HERMES...849474?hash=item1ee9d1a502:g:pzoAAOSwQDdbkaXX

ETA: sorry, it's pasting with an emoji because of the punctuation in the link. That smiley face should be a colon followed by a lowercase p. I hope a copy/paste will work.

Just commenting that the tags indeed have changed.

You're right. Not nearly sufficient. That said, this seller has been a collector for a long time and knows her stuff. She's approachable. Ask for more pictures and/or provenance.

Not sure pictures are sufficient.

I inherited some scarves, not sure of name or value. Can anyone help? The Name looks like Voyages En something? I have others that I will post too.

I shouldn't but will help you because, with a little guidance, this stuff is easy to do on your own. In this instance, the name is in the middle of the scarf. You just have to google it and information will pop up for you. Then you can see on eBay how much you might get for it. You can also use "Piwigo HSCI" for general information on Hermes scarves. Okay, that's more than I am supposed to say in this authentication thread.

Any ideas on proper name and value?

Thank you very much! It went to somebody else, but I really appreciate your input. The seller was surprised by my question about authenticity and asked why someone else was authenticating it, and pointed me to the care tag and boutique tag, the photo of the logo, and the details in the faces of certain cats. Granted, I wrote close to the time the auction was ending, but I want the peace of mind provided by tPF authentication.

I am grateful to you and the other authenticators! I figure that if you as an expert suggest more photos, it's a good idea for me to request that.

I did not see any of those things. Did she add some photos later? I may owe her an apology. But you know what? Better safe than sorry.
