Authenticate Those SHOES

Hello ladies, would you kindly help authenticate these CHANEL ballet flats? I have owned several authentic CHANEL flats already and yet I am still not able to tell if these are authentic or not, but something looks off to me (toe-/bow area). Thank you so very much! xx

Hi! I’m trying to see if these shoes are legit Roger Vivier. The vendor is selling on Facebook Marketplace and has several pieces listed significantly below retail.
Vendor name: Kaileir House
Style: Roger Vivier Trompette Ballerina Leather Flats
Price:$385
I cant locate any seller reviews. I believe that this might be a scam. Any advise is appreciated. Thanks

Please provide a link to the listing. I tried googling Kaileir's House and came up with no matches. We need more than one photo and a seller link is important.

There are a couple of details I find troubling, let's let Shuze weigh in as well. A seller link is always important in authenticating.

The seller has terrible photos and nothing one could use for authenticating. I don’t speak the language so can’t look at their feedback and previous selling history.
 
Thanks for your reply! The seller is a business seller and has a lot of very good feedback, but sells all kinds of things, not only high end/designer. So I don't think that gives away anything, really. I could take a chance and return them, if they turn out to be fake. Just wanted to post here and see if they are fake from her pictures already, I wouldn't even have to bother. Comparing them to a pair of CHANEL flats that I have, some details are definitely different. But maybe they're from a diferent time? Because some details look good, and some off... So I really don't know...

I always look at a sellers feedback to see if they've consistently sold high end goods or the equivalent of what's being asked in an authentication. I don't speak the language of this seller so can't see that information in their previous sales history. If a seller is not skilled in consistent sales of a particular kind of product then likely they will not understand how to properly authenticate an item, such as this. I have Chanel ballet flats and all styles of Chanel shoes in my closet some dating back to the 80's, and there are consistencies throughout the decades that are unmistakeable. There are manufacturers of replica Chanel shoes that have it down to a science and are almost mirror images of authentic shoes which is why minute details including all stitching is critical in determining authenticity and can be difficult which insufficient photos. There are two clear inconsistencies in comparison with all of my shoes which is why I'm suspect of authenticity.

I see the same issues audreylita sees and I would not buy them.

With that oddball stamping and quarter finishing I sure would not buy them. A basic ballet is the easiest shoe in life to copy well.
