Hello authenticators,


Could you kindly authenticate this plum planetes for me? I bought this from Bloomingdales online, so it SHOULD be authentic. However, I've heard horror stories (conspiracy theories?) of people buying the authentic item from department stores, then exchanging them for fakes, which leaves the next unwitting buyer with a fake item. I know it sounds paranoid, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. Especially since I've been stalking Bloomies online for a plum planetes forever! I knew it cropped up from time to time; I already lost out to one before due to my "analysis paralysis", so when I saw another one crop up some days/a week ago, I went for it, no questions asked!


I had a very hard time getting a good picture of the tag. Is the tag really made of a hard plastic like material and not soft cloth? This is also my first Longchamp, so I wouldn't know. In case you need a better tag pic, let me know and I'll try again.


Also - does the planetes really not come with a dust bag? Mine did not come with one.


Thank you very much in advance for your assistance. :D

Personally I wouldn't worry so much because you bought it from Bloomingdales. They do not come with a dust bag and yes, the tag is plastic.
I will let rx4dsoul comment on the authenticity!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, EGBDF! :D You are right, I really shouldn't worry; I'm just such a paranoid person sometimes. I think I'm being like this also because it's my first Longchamp, and I haven't touched a planetes IRL so I am not sure what a real one would feel like versus a fake one. It looks like a high quality bag though, and I am pretty sure it is authentic based on that (without a basis for comparison, just because it looks and feels high quality), but I just want to erase any suspicions in my paranoid mind. :p Thank you again!
 
Hi! I bought this in ebay from a reseller in Japan. Kindly take a look pls. Thanks! I'm worried because there is no tag. My 2 other LPs have.

Leather looks good. Please repost a clearer and closer view of pic #7 (zipper underside). Thanks!
 
Dear authenticators, I bought this bag from Bluefly.com and have been using it for a few months. I had never doubted it's authenticity as Bluefly is a reputable retailer but as I sat looking at it, over breakfast. I noticed that the zipper pull and the snap button is of different colors. In comparison to the nickel zipper pull on my LM Metal (which is shiny), the zipper pull on this appeared to be matte. Could I have purchased a fake? Or received a return that was repaired? Many thanks in advance for your kind help.

Name: MSH in Navy
Seller: Bluefly
Photos taken by me.

Here's a better pic of the tag! I had to enlist the help of my DH to get it (LOL, I'm pretty terrible at this). My original post is also quoted so you can refer to the other pics in my original post (post 9543).


Thank you! :D
