Comments: Can someone help me authenticate this bag please :smile: I think it is authenticate but need some help. Series 14. Thanks so much!!
Photos insufficient. Please read posts 1 and 2 and identify which photos you may be missing; my signature also outlines bare minimum photos needed for a response. Of course, there is no need to repost photos that are already included in the listing. If your request did not have an active online link, then you will need a login shot to prove you are the photographer. Please see my signature link for an example or more info.

If you repost with additional pictures, please also quote or copy and paste your original request and provided pictures so that I know which bag the additional pics belong to. Thanks.
 
Not a problem at all! I appreciate your effort :smile: I asked the seller for more pictures of the hologram, I have attached them here. Thanks so much in advance!

EDIT: I just realised you meant the card. Ignore my comment. I will ask for it again.
I did mean the hologram, not the card.
These photos are no better than the first. They are blurry, and faded.
I'd like to see a crisp, clear, up-front of the hologram sticker please.
Also, Please always repost your additional info or photos requested with the original information about the listing or item you are requesting authentication for, so that we don't have to jump between posts to reference as this is a fast-moving thread with multiple posts in between.
 
Thanks for the advice.
The pictures are provided by the oversea seller.
I have not seen the bag in person.
What should I do? Thanks
To ensure a safe transaction, you should really have the bag listed on a platform like Ebay and use an electronic form of payment (credit card, etc)
The reason we don't authenticate orphan photos like this is because there is no agency.
Photos could be from anywhere.
Granted, same holds true for an online listing on Ebay, but, there is an additional level of accountability and identity to document potential fraud.
Additionally, you could purchase the bag and then post pictures yourself once received, but I'd never advise that.
 
Thank you for your response, sorry I missed those. Here is the original post again with some additional pictures. i am still awaiting the screw picture and close up on snap so will send those as soon as i have them, hopefully soon. I appreciate your help :)

Do you have a clearer and up close picture of the oval stamp?
For future reference, please see post #1 of this thread for the right format to post your request in.
Also, when you post new pictures, or info, please remember to quote your initial request so we have all the pertinent info contained in one post.

sorry, I'm trying but I'm not used to write in the forums! I tried to take a picture of the clip but it is so small it's so hard! when I look with a magnifying glass, it says C (with a ring around it) CHANEL R (with a ring around it), on the second line it says A13 cc logo V,
And att the bottom is says MADE IN FRANCE
 
I usually don't authenticate 17 million+ series classic boys, classic flaps, GSTs, WOCs and reissues unless it's from a reputable seller that I know and trust, due to the proliferation of superfakes, or unless it's a bag that to me is clearly counterfeit. Unfortunately most paid services do not do these either unless you mail them the bag.

Of course, if I am still able to tell you if it's a "definite fake" or "definite superfake" I will still comment, so you are not discouraged from posting these bag requests, but please make note of the above.

Hi Roku

Thank you so much for the quick response

I'm so sorry, I thought you meant quoting by reposting. My apologies.
The seller sent another photo, is this one better?

I can read the engraving on the oval stamp, but I really need to see a crisp, clear and up close pic of it in order to see the fonts.
Though so far I don't think there's anything off looking with this necklace, I'd like to make sure.
If you're taking pics with your phone: use the zoom in function, hold still and wait for it to focus, then take the shot.
If taking pics with your camera, use the macro mode.

Please include the link when you post new pictures or info.
