Who do you trust aside from Authenticate4U? They have been very slow with the results lately and sometimes I need quick turnaround.

I buy mostly Balenciaga or Givenchy.

Any reviews on Real Authentication?

Reality Check Authentications?

Thanks!
 
Here's my list but I'm excited to see what other recommendations you get.

Ones I trust:
• Castira for Gucci
• Enticiler for Chanel
• CarolDiva for LV and Prada (I've heard on TPF that she is good for other brands as well)

I haven't used but heard on TPF these are good:
• Bababebi for Hermes
• Roku and ColourfulBelle for Chanel
• Real Authetications for Dior
• authenticate4u a4u for most brands (although I've also had issues with them being slow)

With a quick turnaround?

I need to have a Givenchy bag authenticated. This is an eBay case so time is of the essence. I’ve submitted a request to Authenticate4U but based on experience, it takes time with constant follow-ups to get the result from them. I don’t have the time to wait as I need to mail the item back to the seller.

Thanks!!
 
I just bought two authentication sessions from Lollipuff. I haven’t submitted the pictures yet but they say they have a 48 hour turnaround time so you might want to consider them if time is of the essence?

Thank you. I checked their site and they don't offer Givenchy. :(

I am almost certain this bag is a fake, especially since seeing authentic ones at the Givenchy boutique this morning. But I need a formal authentication. :(
 
Just an update - the Givenchy bag was judged authentic by four third party authenticators.

One of them was Real Authentication - turnaround was really quick. I think it was 24hours. They also answer questions about the assessment if you have any. I just wish they have more reviews/web presence.

Multiple authentications give me a lot of peace of mind. I’m glad you have an authentic bag.

Which other 3 services did you use?

Hi guys I had my gotten my bag authenticated by both real authentication and authenticate4u.

Real authentication was fast but said bag was counterfeit.
I had to wait a while for authenticate4u, but they finally responded saying it is authentic.

I’m really confused, a consignment store sent in the pictures to real authentication not me, do you think it would make a difference?

Ive seen the real thing and I was really shocked at the first result, but then again people keep talking about these super fakes that I’ve never knowingly seen before.

Any suggestions?

Hi, I would also ask in the ebay_forum here: https://forum.purseblog.com/forums/ebay-forum.56/
They have lots of experience with authentications and could help with suggestions.
Hope it works out.

Any recommendations on Celine?
 
How do I contact caroldiva and pay her for authentication? I am so bad at technology I can’t figure how to navigate and use this forum

Don't they have an email contact you can write to (or a phone number). Look for somewhere on the site that says 'contact' - sometimes it's right at the bottom.
