This thread is closed as we don’t currently have authenticators for Gucci, please seek a paid service.

Please post authenticity questions related to GUCCI in this thread.

The PurseForum requests that only members with an extensive knowledge of the brand and authenticating who have over 500 posts participate as authenticators in this AT thread. The moderators reserve the right to remove authentications that do not meet these requirements.


Please follow the following rules:

Before you submit a request for authentication, please search this thread to make sure that the item has not previously been authenticated. This is in order to prevent duplication requests and to make it simpler for people to 'search' for items which may have been posted previously. This is not a thread to ask general questions about GUCCI, please refer to our main GUCCI forum for such information.

This is a free service, but it is imperative that you help our authenticators by using the following format:

Item:
Listing number:
Seller:
Link:
Comments:

If the bag in question is not on an auction site, please use the following:

Item Name (if you know it):
Link (if available):
Seller:
Who took the pictures:
History of the bag:
Comments:

Please give us as much information as you can and then attach any pictures (all authentication must include pictures).

Authenticators are not required to answer every request and it is their right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format.
Please note that comments on price and condition are NOT permitted.
Please limit your request to one (1) per post; otherwise it gets too confusing keeping them all straight.
Do NOT PM an authenticator or moderator to request authentication. Any and all such requests must be posted in this thread.
To ensure that additional pictures requested are seen by the authenticators, please utilize the quote feature or provide a link to your original request and response. Failure to do so may result in your query not being answered.
Should one of your items be questioned in this thread, you are welcome to provide additional pictures or materials supporting its authenticity.
Do not handle your disputes with other members in this thread but take your differences to Private Messages. Failure to do so can result in banning.

Hall of Shame: Post the Fakes Here!
Let me start this thread by saying that tPF does not condone fakes in any way! This thread is to post fake/counterfeit GUCCI'S so that we can report to eBay, and most importantly, to warn potential buyers about!



CAVEATS:
1- this thread is NOT for authenticating bags. Please post any and all questions about authenticity here: http://forum.purseblog.com/gucci/authenticate-this-gucci-17676.html If we see questions like this here, we will simply delete them.
2- please do not go into great detail as to what about a particular item is fake- we don't want to give counterfeiters any hints on how to improve their dubious products.

ANY QUESTIONS!Please PM JILL!!!!

(thanks to the HERMES FORUM for this idea!)

It is really imperative that you first get the right pictures needed to properly authenticate GUCCI items. Please read this and get the requested pics before you post your request in the Authenticate This thread.

PICTURES NEEDED TO AUTHENTICATE PURSES/BAGS

1) photos of the bag (yes many times people just post a photo of the tag, not enough!)
2) close ups of the serial tag: front showing the "Gucci made in italy" stamping and the back showing the serial number
3) may also need close ups of the hardware markings, eg D ring
4) if the style has it, a close up of the cursive gold Gucci script, eg on the Abbey styles
5) this applies to both current and vintage styles
6) please do not just post a photo of the serial number/tag (the authenticators need to see more than that)

PICTURES NEEDED TO AUTHENTICATE WALLETS

1) close up of the serial number located vertically underneath the credit card slots (it is perpendicular to the direction of the slots)
2) "Gucci made in italy" stamping in the bottom corner
3) close ups of the button snaps help too

PICTURES NEEDED TO AUTHENTICATE SHOES/WATCHES/SUNGLASSES/BELTS

1) close ups of markings, e.g. close up of stamps on the back of the belt, close ups of the markings on the soles of heels, inside the heels, close ups of markings on the inside arm of glasses etc
2) basically the authenticators need good clear close ups of markings
3) and an auction listing if there is one

When taking close up photos please or ask sellers to, or if you are taking them yourself:

1) NOT use flash
2) NOT use zoom
3) do use macro mode that is usually indicated by a flower on most digital cameras
4) do take photo in lots of light (no flash though), by a window is good, but glare is bad
5) use a steady hand


Ensuring that you have read this will help the authenticators help you better :yes:

Addition 26.05.16
If your post is answered with 'Insufficient pictures/pics/photos' you will know your photos are NOT compliant with the above and therefore cannot be judged either authentic/fake. No amount of bumping will result with a conclusive judgement.

Please jump in and help out if you are a regular user of Gucci products and especially if also a regular member of this Gucci forum. The usual 500+ po

Hi again - please authenticate the following:

Item Name: Gucci Soho Disco Cross body Bag in Orange

Listing number: 201662141888

Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/201662141888

Seller: signimage1

Thank you!!

Just to let you know, a few days ago, I asked this seller to post pictures of the inside, ID tag, etc. because there's no way telling if it's real or not without these added photos. She never responded to my request. And now it shows that someone bought it for $620.
^^^^^^ Sorry just noticed you added more photos.
