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:

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.

Need clear shot of the back as well.

It's fake so the awful smell is redundant at this point (also I don't think smell is part of snad as smell is subjective). My advice is to get it professionally authenticated which will definitely be evaluated as fake, then open a claim because you have about 3 months to do so.


I will update clearer picture one I receive the bag. I'm crossing my finger hoping this time will be a good one!!!


As for the refund i already ship back her item and she haven't response to what I say yet. But as I keep looking around the Gucci thread I now see why the bag is fake! I hope whoever gave her the bag (she claim her mother in law gave that to her) come clean about it..the poor lady was in shocked when I made that statement about her bag :/
 
Good Afternoon,

I made the VERY bad decision of purchasing a bag online before coming here and getting it authenticated. I went into the Gucci store and the sales associate was new and indicated that the lining looked off but that was it. I wanted to bring it in here to check as well although I have already begun the return process.. I really wanted a gucci 1973, I guess I moved to quick :-(..


Here is the bag :

The back of the tag could be clearer but I don't see any red flags. My opinion is that it's authentic.
 
Hi,
I'm new at this site and don't know if I'm following the process properly....I bought 4 Gucci bags at an auction last Saturday...my actual interest is antiques- I know next to nothing about bags. The bags looked to have age...when they came up...I got carried away...but didn't pay more than $25 for each of them...so when I got home, I was astonished to see so much information out there (some of it contradictory). The bags look good, but I would love some help to authenticate.
The size of the first bag is: 10.75 by 9

Hi guys! Would really appreciate if you could help me authenticate this bag that I purchased recently.
I have no talent in spotting out fakes and I'm not a designer expert, so the very few bags that I do own, I purchased in authorized stores. But, I went to Japan recently and kinda went nuts with all the great deals.

I made sure to pick "reputable" stores though. But this particular find made me panic because I couldn't find any information on it.

Item Name (if you know it): Gucci bamboo top bag (?)
Link (if available):
Seller: Brand off Shinsaibasisu
Who took the pictures: i did
History of the bag: I bought it in one of those second hand shops in Japan
Comments: I've heard only good stuff about Brand off. And i even saw in their page that they're part of this voluntary campaign to stop fake goods from reaching Japan. In my moment of panic, i tried contacting them via this phone app called line. And they were kind enough to call back and explain some of the questions I had about the bag (such as why I can't find the serial number, why it still looks new etc). They even offered to buy back the bag in case I wasn't happy with it. That made me calm down a bit. But again, you can never be too sure right?

Item: Gucci crossbody shoulder bag
Listing number:281933384808
Seller: lislawhor1
Link: http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/281933384808
Comments: just purchased this purse via eBay, have not received it yet but wanted to get some reassurance that it is not fake based on the inner embedded gold tag. From my research most gold tags have the knight logo next to the Gucci also the "made in Italy" but I am not sure if this would qualify with a vintage. She noted 1990, so that doesn't seem so vintage, otherwise I am a dinosaur.!
