Just purchased a bag from Hawkeye vintage Melbourne… they are on Insta and have live sales based in Australia.

The bag was a chocolate bar style bag and I couldn’t resist (such a good price!) but obviously a little nervous as I’ve never purchased from them before and I couldn’t find much info here … has anyone got any experience with them?

thank you
They are wonderful and have some gems, make sure to get your bag authenticated

If the bag is Chanel for sure get zeko authentication (https://zekosauthentication.com/) . I also get my bags authenticated with Realauthentication (https://realauthentication.com/)

Ok thank you so much!
I unfortunately have already purchased the bag probably should have asked for photos so I could get it authenticated.

I asked for the additional entrupy Certificate as well but have seen since some less than stellar reviews about the service. I am sure it’s real but get so nervous hence why I’ve never gone ahead before now purchasing anything like this online. I did bank transfer so hopefully it’s legit and if not they offer money back

thank you for your help with mentioning zeko!
 
Yes that’s why I was fooled, also because some months before I had asked about a chanel coat and she told me they didn’t have my size, so I thought if she was a scammer she wouldn’t have said that… but as soon as the money left my money and I went into our Instagram conversation and saw everything was deleted I knew I had been fooled. I’m glad that at least I have been able to help by posting here and at least avoiding more scams as my bank has said there is nothing I can do to get my money back (over 4000 dollars )

I just got scammed by leurstyle! Her pictures are so real. Should have done her background check before sending any money. :(
