Agree with ashlie. I'm also a regular customer and I've never had any authenticity or delivery issues. On the other hand, their packaging is not luxe and although I've been happy/lucky with the condition of my purchases, there's the risk of scratches etc (and returns are not worth it) so if that bothers you, I would stay away.
 
@ashlie My latest Italist purchase (just arrived this week!) was a Celine marine micro luggage in grained baby calf. I noticed you posted a pic of a similar purchase from a few months back. Did you get the same bag as me?
 
If your not comfortable purchasing I would say don't purchase. I've been buying from them for a few years now with no problems,however other women on here have had issues and it's a very difficult return process I hear.
Hi ashlie, thanks for the reply. I've read the same thing about their return, it's a pain in the a$$; but it's not really bothering me, I'm more worried about the authenticity of the goods their boutiques are selling. Are all the things you bought from them authentic? Have you got any authenticated here?

No, we do not. I saw the one you bought though! I'm happy you grabbed it and not a reseller. [emoji849] most of the one on italist end up on eBay for triple the price.
I bought a nano in the color "petrol". It's only the same leather. Different color and size. Please post pictures!!!

I personally have never had an authenticity problem. I also haven't heard of anyone else having one either. It seem that you have better luck with Italist then you do resale websites now a days [emoji23]

Packing isn't luxe? Does everything come with the correct designer box though? For shoes at least?
 
So, what's my first experience shopping with Italist???? NEVER AGAIN! They sent me the wrong order. Instead of getting the Givenchy Antigona, size small, I received a pair of Prada shoes. I am beyond IRATE! It's unbelievable that a $2000+ purchase is handled so recklessly. So pissed. Of course, they don't have a number you can call. I emailed them immediately and so far, NO RESPONSE!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM. Wouldn't be surprised if it's some sort of scam.

That's really irritating to say the least. This may be a long shot but on your customs sheet does it give the address or name of the boutique your item came from?....you may be able to contact the boutique directly if it does? I don't have my custom sheets handy. Let us know how you make out :/
