********REMINDER******PLEASE READ*********

In order to avoid forth and back postings, before requesting an authentication, please read post # 2 of this thread (here) for all pictures required for an accurate assessment. Please note that pictures all of the required details need to be of quality: non-angled, crisp and sharp, up close and glare-free. I need to be able to see the detailing and authentications can't be done if pictures are lacking. Also, when posting pictures, pls make sure that they are uploaded straight forward/non-angled, so I won't have to save them on my laptop in order to rotate them to the right angle.

Once you have all the required photos, please post your request in the following template and fill out the following:
- Item name:
- Serial number: (please type out)
- Listing number: (eBay listing #, site listing #, or if applicable)
- Seller: (seller ID)
- Link: (link to the sellers listing in eBay or other selling site. Either active, or expired)
- Comments:

Please note: If your request has no valid link to the listing (that's still active, or has ended) and you already bought/are the owner of the bag, you would need to post a login shot.
Login shot: the bag in front of your device while logged into your tPF account (showing your username). Example here
You can only post a login shot if the item is in your possession.
No login shot is needed if you can provide a valid link.


* I will not do authentications without a without a valid link, or login shot.

* Currently I also don't authenticate items from social media sites like Instagram and Facebook, nor do I authenticate RTW and footwear.

* If you need an urgent authentication and time is of the essence, please consider using a paid service.

* Also please limit your request to one item per post.

Thanks all!!

Oh, I just noticed that you're currently not authenticating footwear, I'm so sorry for my slip and disrupting the thread. Since I can't really delete my earlier post, I wanted to apologise!

Hello,

I recently purchased a Chanel Classic bag in jumbo from someone and had it authenticated by someone who works at Etinceler since they were inspect the bag in person with me in Los Angeles, where I live.

They found the bag to be suspicious since the marking of the inside of the zipper is off. When looking at all Chanel classic bags, the inside of a EP zipper has a number 2 or 3 marking or a $ sign.

My bag has a stamp "N2" on the bag which has never been seen before. Please see photos of the zipper on my bag:

And what is seen in an authentic classic bag:

Chanel zippers have been quite consistent over the decades depending on the bag.

Classics double flaps uses EP or YKK. But from our extensive research of looking at every bagsIt is consistent for classic double flaps and reissue double flaps. It is about the size. Gauge 2 mainly for nylon bags. N means nylon zipper.

Does this seem right?

Hi, can you please edit your original request because we did not tell you that the number 2 is ok for an EP zipper on an authentic Chanel Classic Flap. We literly told you the opposite.

"When looking at all Chanel classic bags, the inside of a EP zipper has a number 2 or 3 marking or a $ sign."
