I bought this in Japan from a reputable second-hand shop (pretty sure selling fakes is actually illegal here as well).The imgur upload was halted, so I'll upload the rest upon request if more info is needed.
Chanel Classic/Timeless Single Flap from 1989-1991 or so in black lambskin and gold hardware.

Came with dustbag, certificate, and it feels and to my eye, look authentic but I started worrying a bit due to the odd shape of the front flap which isn't "frowning" like most classic flaps, but I was hoping that its due to the year in which it was made, which according to the tag and certificate would have to be in the late 80s/early 90s for a seven digit code starting in "1" as well as the fact that although the tag is the right color, its incredibly hard to read, so much so that I don't think I can take a legible photo. However it does match the card when held in just the right angle and light to a human eye.
Really hoping someone could let me know if I should return it as a fake ASAP, and I'll be sure to add the other photos if its not immediately obvious from what I have shown so far. Although they have a no returns policy, they will certainly will not allow me to have a fake as it would ruin their reputation and open them up to legal liability.
