Welcome to tPF! If there is no sale link, please post a login shot (the bag in front of your device while logged into tPF) to show the bag is in your possession. Please add a straight on, up close shot of the serial number so all numbers are clearly visible and a picture of the internal zip hardware. When adding additional photos please quote your initial request making sure all previous info provided carries forward; this way all pertinent information is contained within one post. All necessary picture requirements can be found on post one and two of this thread. Thank you!

 

[Gblb]

Please follow posting instructions and requirements in post one and two.

Please type out the serial # for our searchable database. If it is not legible say so in the field.

If the bag is not in an active or expired listing, please add a LOGIN SHOT (the bag in front of your device while logged into your tPF account).

Please post In the following template:

Item name:
Serial number:
Listing number: (eBay listing #, site listing #, or if applicable)
Seller: (seller ID)
Link: (link to the sellers listing in eBay or other selling site)
Comments:

Please note the difficulties of authenticating 17 million plus series bags via pictures alone.

IF YOU'RE ASKED TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, PLEASE QUOTE YOUR INITIAL REQUEST MAKING SURE ALL PRIOR INFORMATION CARRIES FORWARD AND THEN ADD ADDITIONAL PICS, ETC. THIS HELPS TO OBTAIN AN EXPEDIENT RESPONSE WHEN ALL PERTINENT INFO IS CONTAINED WITHIN IN ONE POST.

Thank you!!

PLEASE READ FOR POSTING INSTRUCTIONS:


We'd like to ask all posting for authentication to please read the first two posts of this thread PRIOR to posting.

Please remember this is a volunteer thread and we cannot always guide each member as to what information is missing in order to process each request.

We ask that you please post in the required format with the necessary photos. We ask this of you not to make things difficult to obtain an authentication, but for the following reasons:

1. The format allows for any member to search the database prior to purchase to see if the bag/slg has been authenticated previously.
2. Searching for the serial # prior to posting or purchase will show if it is known counterfeit serial #.
3. Required pictures are needed to give an accurate assessment.
4. Format helps give the authenticator pertinent details.
5. Maintains consistency and allows us to maintain a searchable database available for all to search.

The number one reason authentication requests are skipped is because the format is not followed. The second reason is the request is missing necessary pictures to provide authentication.

Be an informed buyer. Ask the seller to provide the necessary pictures PRIOR to purchase or posting. This not only protects you as the buyer, but also provides you with the pictures necessary for authentication. You will also need the necessary photos for your reference upon receipt.

Authentications ARE NOT currently done on orphan images without a login shot nor from most social media sites. if the bag is in your POSSESSION, you need to include a LOGIN SHOT (the bag in front of your device while logged into your tPF account).

REQUIRED PICTURES:

1. Front, back, sides and bottom of bag
2. Up close, straight on picture of the Chanel and Made In Stamp
3. Up close, straight on picture of the serial number in the bag
4. The backplate of the turn lock
5. The front CC closure
6. Internal hardware (zipper pulls, snap, etc.)
7. Exterior hardware (male and female parts of a flap closure, rings on totes, decorative hardware, etc.)

PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR AN OPINION WHEN ALL REQUIRED PICTURES CANNOT BE PROVIDED. WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO GIVE AN INFORMED OPINION AND CAN ONLY DO SO WITH ALL RELEVANT PICTURES.

If you are unsure how to post, please read back a few pages and note how others have posted processed requests.

We want to help you get your request processed upon the first request.
