Without the above information and current for sale status there will be no authentication
 
Dear Authenticators

Good evening to you all.

Having read the first post and not having an active link, would you kindly advise as to how I could get a cashmere\silk shawl authenticated?

Many thanks.

Kind Regards

J.
 
Dear authenticators,
Could you please tell me if this scarf is a true Hermès scarf and if the seller is trustworthy, as far as you know of course...
Name : Libres comme l'air
Item number on eBay: 185648257421
Seller: artjapanexport

The seller says it's never been used or washed, the scarf is new but no box or tags are provided. I've never bought on eBay so I'm a bit hesitant and suspicious.
Thank you so much for your expertise.

1.Next time, save yourself some work, no need to 0aste 0hotos if they are in the listing
2. LIBRES is authentic
3. We don’t evaluate sellers in this thread as that is a very personal matter depending on postage costs, return policy, accurate description of condition - even real scarves can be in disappointing condition, availability of box and ribbon, import duties from foreign seller (just had friend complain about that ) - duties depend on your location / seller location etc etc
 
Thank you for your quick answer.
I asked the question about artjapanexport because I remember reading answers about identifications which mentioned the good reputation of the seller.
PS: photos suppressed as they are unnecessary.

No worries ;)

To add my 2 cents: I think that advice is mostly to warn against “if it seems like too good a deal, it is” type of sellers.

Also keep in mind that even Trusted Sellers can inadvertently overlook an excellent replica. It’s prudent to be cautious.
 
Dear Authenticators,

That is a replica scarf, not authentic NUAGE
As an educational note, see how seller is trying to distract you by promising more photos
