The seller doesn't accept returns and Tiffany doesn't provide letters of authenticity.. am I screwed?
No, I don't think so.

The listing claims it is original & authentic. You should be able to contact the seller and ask to return it on the basis that you have doubts about its authenticity--and say why.

It's the second pic of the series that made me suspicious. If you look at some of the links, they come to a point rather than being smooth and round all around. I guess soon enough you will see for yourself in person. I am sure if it was an honest mistake on the seller's part and you explain why, they would apologize and take it back. If not, then open a ticket with eBay.

Sorry girlie. :( This looks like a fake; the links are pinched and not smoothly round/soldered at spots. :(
I'm not so sure. Fakes are obviously pinched. This might be a case of an old item where the joins have become exposed over time. Is the item old? If it's more than 20yrs old I'd start to expect the smooth solder to be compromised but still joined. Pinched is different - it never has been joined.

Thanks for your replies ladies.

It is discontinued by Tiffany if it is authentic. This is the old, discontinued version of the RTT choker necklace. The new version can be viewed here: http://www.tiffany.ca/Shopping/Item...1&search=1&origin=search&searchkeyword=choker

I know for authentication you need to provide a listing link but when I receive the necklace can I post pictures of it here just incase?

Oh, I see. I didn't know that--sorry. :(


I have a 1994 arrow & heart toggle necklace and they are smooth and round but it's definitely possible the RTF choker was worn more.


Maybe...try weighing it when you get it? I weighed mine at a pharmacy scale.
 
Can someone please authenticate this Cartier watch and the year for me?
CARTIER Stainless Steel Pasha 2324 Automatic 35mm Watch, serial#CC407280
