Hello everyone.
If you could please assist me in authenticating this bag, I would truly appreciate it. I have tried my best to read up on how to authenticate but still am quite unsure because the bag along with its accessories (dustbag, cleaning cloth etc) appear to be authentic apart from what l mentioned in the comments.


Item: Chanel Jumbo Caviar Double Flap
Serial Number: 18896941
Comments:
-The space in between the CC logo is not the same in width compared to both C’s.
-The length between the CC logo and CHANEL doesn’t seem to be exactly 1.5 cms.
-On the right hand side of the back pocket, there is a discontinuity of the stitching-one stitched line is not connected to each other(second diamond from the bottom). I have read this is possible with age but seems a bit far off to me.

Thank you for your time.

Hmmm, I'd like to see a much more in focus and non-glare picture of the full sticker. Also clear forward facing pictures of the full interior, female snap button, zipper pull and underside of the zipper slider. There's are 8 digits on that sticker, one is just not showing fully.

When you post back with new pictures, please make sure to either resubmit all previous info/pics, or quote your initial request/previous posts, so I have all pertinent info pertaining to your request contained in one post.

Pictures show no cause for concern, but I recommend higher series classic flaps to be sent in for physical inspection.

I need a clearer picture of the sticker (can't make out the digits), zipper pull, male snap button and underside of the zipper slider.

Thank you so so much @ironic568 ! You are amazing!! This is so helpful.

This is the perfect bag I wanted, just placed an order. A gift to myself for my upcoming 30th birthday. It's supposedly also from between 1989-1991, and thus ~30 years old! I was just vary of ordering since it's an individual seller.

Do you think it would be a good idea to get a certificate from Etinceler too just in case I need to resell it in the future ever (though I don't think I will)?
