Please help me authenticate this beautiful bag! :)
Item:
CHANEL Grey Quilted Iridescent Calfskin Leather VIP Flap Shoulder Bag

Serial Number: 15145991
Listing number: 11161025
Seller: Yoogi's Closet
Link: https://www.yoogiscloset.com/chanel...t-calfskin-leather-vip-flap-shoulder-bag.html
Comments: I'm concerned because the seams long the side don't match up which you can't see from the website pictures but I've included. Also the lining in the bag can be pulled outside the bag very easily.

It is authentic. The seams on the side are fine, this is not an authenticity concern.
 
Hi, is it possible to authenticate this Chanel Coco handle?
Item: 100% NEW & ORIGINAL Chanel Coco Handle
Serial Number: 23496180
Listing number: -
Seller: Ellegirl
Link: http://www.designer-vintage.com/product/chanel-handbags-bags-69878
Comments: hope the pics are sufficient

Thanks for any help!!
If possible, please request the following pictures from the seller:
- up close of the CC turn lock
- back plate of the CC turn lock
- both interior zipper pulls
- the authenticity card, if available
I also need to see a up close and face forward picture of the serial nr. (no flash). The one is the listing is not taken from the correct angle which makes it very hard to see the details.
 


I don't see anything that tells me this bag is fake. All details look correct for a 17C mini.
But as always, it is advisable to obtain personal authentication when it comes to newer series classics. Physical inspection allows the authenticator to see details that are not always shown clearly with just pictures.
Or, if for any reason you can't send it in, you can use Authenticate4U to obtain a 2nd opinion. I believe they still do picture authentication for all series.

Btw I fully agree with @ironic568 's comments on auth
but want to add that you should know that none of these pictures look like the actual color of this bag
Please check one of the cruise or chanel finds threads to get some better perspective unless you already have seen the color in person

Thank you very much for your opinions. My pics didn't show the real color of the bag. I think the reason might be the light or the camera. But anyway I have compared with the dark pink color posted on 17C cruise and Chanel finds threads. The color of those pics are much closer to my actual bag. I think I am okay with the bag now. Thank you for the help!

Got it. I didn't realize you were the one who took the photos. My comment on color had nothing to do with auth - I thought those were photos you received and were considering buying it ; was letting you know the color in person looks different, but if you have it in person, then my comment is moot.
