Hi tpf members I have a concern and hopefuly I can get some answers here. I just visited my local lv boutique (valley fair mall, Santa Clara) to have my pre-loved lv cabas mezzo from fashionphile authenticated by them and the SA told me they wouldn't authenticate it. That, "we don't authenticate items from a third party company." I was very put off by this because I've always heard of other members and people taking their preloved items in and having them authenticated. I also asked him if he can't then would the manager possibly be able to and he also declined that request. I'm very confused, any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
