I don't necessarily discourage you from buying pre-ownedHi,
Thank you for taking the time and answering my question.
And for thinking further about this and making additional points about how far some people will go to sell a fake.
As a result of your answer/comments my hubby has now managed to convince me to go into a Chanel store
and spend my hard saved money on a albeit bit smaller but, genuine Chanel bag as;
it is Chanel I have been/wanting all this time and not some fake.
Your help is very much appreciated.
Have a lovely evening
Lana xxxxxxxx
I personally love buying pre-owned myself
You just need to make sure you go to a reputable seller
You can find several on the recommended resellers thread
Some good ones for Chanel:
Ann's Fabulous Finds, Fashionhulu, Boutique Patina, Timeless Luxuries, Portero, SnobSwap, etc.
