**CLOSED** Authenticate This CHANEL

[Emmakimberly]

Fashionphile sold you a fake bag????

YES. They sold me a FAKE bag. The hardware is not gold. Its not leather...its a goood replica

 

[Emmakimberly]

Who authenticated for you? Can you get a second opinion perhaps in person authentification.

FASHIONPHILE is reputable I as well as my friends sold authentic merchandise to them.

Btw hardware is not supposed to be gold it was gold plated decades ago but that was stopped.

Ironic something... its supposed to gold!!? What are you talking about. Chanel use gold. Maybe not 24k. They stopped using 24k since 2015. I took it to several ppl and its a fake. Its not leather i paid 3500 dollars

It is very offensive. To be fair, people who are helping here is a free service and I believe most of the people in this forum appreciate what they do for us. They didn't get commission from anyone.

I suggest you to go to buy directly from Chanel Boutique. Or get a paid service to authenticate your items. Online authentication we need to provide accurate good pictures. As you said it is a good quality replica (if it is really fake as your other resources told you), it need to be touched and felt to tell if you need an absolute answer. The hardwares I could see from the pictures they really look good in the pictures. And at the end you need to understand that even if it is authentic Chanel, it is gold plated but not a solid gold.

We need mutual respect in this forum. Have a nice weekend!

I'm sorry to hear that you had troubles with your backpack. The professional authenticator who examined the bag in person should be able to provide you a written statement, I'm sure fashionphile will take care of this if you have the statement, otherwise you can go through credit card or PayPal or bank to get you money back.

AFAIK photography authentication is not 100% accurate for the recent Chanel series because of the super fakes on the market. That's why the major authenticators only provide in person authentication with the recent Chanel bags. This thread is to assist shoppers but by no means a legal binding service.

Professional ppl have Said its not authentic. I took it to a authenticator.
Are you an authenticator?
Have a good day.

Hello, I’ve been searching for these boots from Chanel since they were released a year or two ago. I found them at Neiman Marcus but as they were not my size I just took photos of them and the style number inside, in hopes of tracking them down. Fast foward, nearly 2 years later I found a pair on eBay and took the plunge to buy them at almost $800 (original $1550).the seller was very short with her responses and did not have the box or any dust bags and also was not willing to lower the price but as they were so hard to find I just bought them anyway. I thought from the pictures the stitching in the back looked a bit odd as it wasn’t completely symmetrical but now when I decided to compare them with the pictures I took in Neiman Marcus I notice the font of the style code stamped inside is very different (notice the G and 3). I also have other chanel shoes and the font is the same on each one and nothing
LIke the one I bought on eBay. Everything else seems to be the same so I’m asking your opinion. (Also in the pics the stamp looks black but it is silver like the ones from Neimans)
I have never seen a knock off of this style so I’m hoping they are real as I’ve already worn and had them for a few weeks. Thanks in advance for your help.

Here is a pic of the date code from the one I took at Neiman Marcus. The font is exactly like on my other Chanel shoes.
