First of all, thanks everyone for all your help authenticating a MC speedy 30 I am considering buying. When I talked to LV, the SA mentioned some LV bags do not have a date code on them, and the bag I am considering purchasing has no date code according to the seller. Kittie said some date codes on Alcantara tend to rub off and that there have been some cases of new bags without a date code.
So 2 questions.... 1) Where do I go from here -- should no date code be a red flag?
I've posted many pictures in the authenticate this section, and all have passed. Should I ask the seller how old the bag is? Do you think its safe to buy?
2) How do I protect myself if I end up getting a fake? How do I pay via CC over paypal? I usually pay with paypal but it doesn't show up on my credit card, it just comes directly out of my bank account. Am I covered with that? Also, would you reccomend that as soon as I get the bag, I post pictures to ensure I'm getting an authentic bag and not a bait-and-switch? The seller has a 7-day return policy.
Thanks again for all your advice! You all are truly soooo helpful
