[deleted5682]

hello faith_ann
could you please authenticate this marc jacobs snapshot denim?
because I bought more bag
thankyou

Hi, could you post a photo of the interior label and of the zipper pull engraving?

In the second to last photo, is the engraved M partially missing or is that camera glare?

I hope you didn't buy it or if you did, that you haven't yet paid. No good thing comes from MJ bags with *rounded R legs in the engraving.

Fake, sorry.

* the other letters are always off on these, too, but IMO the R is the easiest to notice. it should be straight, like this (same season, style is irrelevant)

I'm pulling up a different color and different strap (was it switched) for this. None of the other details look off but I will come back to it later.

I should have asked where these were purchased.

 

[tanakavalencia]

I bought it via online

 

[tanakavalencia]

for this white colour,the strap is red black colour like the pic that I gave you
is it authentic?

 

[deleted5682]

I bought it via online

What's the site link, though?

 

[tanakavalencia]

via instagram

That was important information to leave out.

I'm not authenticating any of these and I'll tag you on the post explaining why shortly.

Thread update: Going forward, I am no longer authenticating current season Marc Jacobs bags. The new tags and the (lack of) details on the new bags have made them much easier to fake. The snapshot bags especially are really being pushed by replica sites, instasellers, and Facebook sellers. I have no idea how close to the real thing they look and have no way of finding out, short of ordering one and comparing it. I'm not up for that right now.

I'm still ok with taking a look at any current bag, because that's how you (hopefully) start learning about very small details that make authenticating easier. Right now, I'm not at a point where I'm familiar enough with the new bags to notice if something's slightly off - if the replicas even are off. I'd also like to encourage other posters to (cautiously!) weigh in on new bags. It's just me here and I'm not always that bright.

@winnie_cutie, I authenticated your snapshot bags, and @tanakavalencia yours do look OK, though I had some questions about the last one. While they very well may be authentic, I am not comfortable offering my opinion on them and apologize for doing so. I didn't know what I didn't know.

I have no idea if Authenticate4u is familiar with the current season, but it's an otherwise trusted authentication site who would be worth asking. I do strongly suggest that the new items be purchased direct from MarcJacobs.com and other authorized retailers.
