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.

Comments: Good evening, everyone. So... I recently purchased a belt buckle off of tradesy and was wondering how I could get this authenticated? I have reached out to authenticate4u, but have not received any feedback as to the authenticity of the buckle. I'm new to this and don't know how to post in the "Authenticate This HERMÈS Accessory" thread... I think it's closed. Please help me, I am a noobie when it comes to Hermes =_=

Hello xiaolongbao, This thread is for scarf authentication requests only. Unfortunately, there is no longer an accessory authentication thread. Paid authentication will be your best option.

First, I respect what all of you are doing here. If I'm posting in the wrong area, I apologize for wasting your time. My intent is to get help and, at this point, I'm unsure where to turn. I need to authenticate some Hermes scarves and a bracelet and honor your rules. I understand this is not for authentication for sellers but rather buyers. I'm still hoping someone can point me in a direction as all my research is coming up empty handed.

I have been given 8 Hermes scarves to sell. Short story: Nasty divorce, husband very emotionally abusive, ex-wife wants them sold. They range from what I'd say is basic Maillons scarf to a few rarer/limited scarves. I had them posted on Poshmark and then they permanently kicked me off for selling counterfeit. To my knowledge and basic research I've done, they are real. I have no intention of selling counterfeit at all! I had no reason to question these scarves are fake because all other items I took into a jeweler were real, such as a Cartier piece. So, now Poshmark says I need to authenticate before they will allow me back on their site. They recommended this site for authentication, but once I read your rules I realized this wouldn't work for my situation.

I'd greatly appreciate being pointed in a direction where I can get authentication to sell these for the woman. Not only to get back onto Poshmark to sell them for the woman, but to make sure they are real. I'm freaked now wondering if they are fake. But, I have 3 boxes, the silk looks right, there are artist signatures, etc. I'd greatly appreciate any help on where to go from here.

Thank you very much for your time and effort!

The only way I get a response is to send a Facebook messenger message to them during their open office hours. They are in the UK. Just keep sending messages that way until they respond - they will eventually and good luck :)

For me, there is a balance between who is reputable and who responds quickly. I have used both lollipuff and authenticate4u in the past. You can see my response above about how to contact authenticate4u and for lollipuff, you would fill out a form on their website for payment and adding photos.
