I heard that authenticate4u do authenticates Chanel classic new series, but have to send in to UK. Since I live in the US, I don't think I'm going to do that. Do you know where else in US does reputable authentication for newer bags? Again, I really appreciate your time and effort on helping me. :smile:

I would greatly appreciate an authentication on this jumbo tweed bag with sequins. Also if you could give me the actual name of this bag and the retail price I would greatly appreciate it!

Unfortunately, this picture of the serial nr. is even blurrier than the previous one (and not face forward). Flash makes it really hard to see all the details which is imperative for the higher series.
I went back and look at your previous pictures on my phone so I could enlarge/zoom in. Like I said earlier, from what I can see, there are no red flags. But because this is one of the newer series flap, you might still want to send it in for personal authentication.

Hi I am in urgent need of an opinion- I have had no response from any authentication services and there is a time limit if I want to place an offer, the price offered to me sounds too good to be true!

Item: Black Caviar Leather Chanel Jumbo Flap bag
Serial 18493665
Seller: bethgracie
Link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172436099557?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Thanks so much :smile:

I don't do private listings, so I will not comment on the authenticity of the Jumbo itself. What I do want to say is please beware of sellers who require a bank transfer as payment. That's just handing over cash and when it gone, it's gone. Even if the Jumbo in the listing is authentic, you will have no recourse if the seller decides to send you a different bag, or to not send you anything at all.
And 1100 pounds for a 18 series Jumbo is beyond fishy, you are correct that it sounds too good to be true.
Besides that, there are not enough pictures to accurately authenticate. That's probably also one of the reasons why you haven't heard back from the authentication services.

Missing many of the required pictures for an evaluation. If you can request the following pictures from the seller:
- up close of the CC turn lock
- up close of the back plate (of the CC turn lock)
- both interior zipper pulls
- face forward, clear, no flash and in focus shot of the serial nr.
- CHANEL MADE IN stamp (straight on and clear)

Once you have all the pictures, please post the new info quoting your initial request.

Need straight on close-ups of all the key pictures. See page one of this thread for guidance. I could be the angle in which some pictures were taken, but at first glance something doesn't look right to me.
