I am also confused about this, because I have read that it’s for authenticity and does not actually store personal information. However, if the second owner takes in store for repair, does scanning the chip bring a serial number and link to the first owner’s profile?

Re Resellers, I’ve been looking forever for the dark-chocolate brown, lamb skin, mini rectangular flap bag via Chanel boutiques, and my SA tells me they’re just not available — then I saw 12+ of them on FASHIONPHILE these last several days, ranging in all-over-the-place prices. What is happening and why so many are available? Any clue, anyone? Thanks!
Omgg wow!
Fashionphile ppl better not have be buying disguised , directly from the boutique as vip customers ?!!
I said this in a previous thread fashionphile do buy bags brand-new stock fresh from the boutique and sell it on the website for a premium
How does Chanel allow this? Does Fashionphile also send multiple people to boutiques to buy the bags like these Instagram resellers?
I resubmitted a reissue I’ve submitted multiple times in the past to Fashionphile and just got offered $2200 it’s a black reissue with gold hardware size 225, with card, tags, care booklet, dustbag, and box. In fashionphile “very good” condition I’d say.
I heard they offer you lower and lower the more you submit the same item, but $2200 is a huge joke.

Wow and that should be a coveted size as well!! In Canada I can never find the small size for resale.
Other than Fashionphile, I don't see gobs of new collection items being sold on some reseller or personal shopper IG accounts. Seems as if whatever Chanel is doing is actually making a difference.
Agreed! It does seem that resellers are more focused on the seasonal items though since classic flap prices are so high, when you factor in the markup above retail + tax.
Is the dark chocolate brown from several collections ago? I recall seeing this at a Canadian location days after the launch date and it was just sitting on the shelves.
I noticed this too! I saw a few minis and seasonal bags being sold at premium like the 21K caviar bags are being sold at premium. Also recently saw a Youtuber sell some of her newest purchased micro bags at premium. Her reasoning because they are brand new
Has anyone noticed there are SO many 21K caramel bags being re-sold now? People couldn't believe it when Chanel brought it back for 21K. But may have been an impulse purchase for many as there was so much frenzy when the color was released in 21P. I also saw some influencers and youtubers posting considering selling it as it doesnt seem to fit their wardrobe. How do you not know that before buying such an expensive bag?!
I didn’t know about the 21K caramel! Interesting - I wonder if people are worried the bags will lose resale value since the color keeps coming back so they are rushing to sell? These YouTubers definitely have an edge over normal people when reselling since they can probably fetch a higher price than any of us would be able to given their name recognition in the luxury communityI noticed this too!
