No more authenticity cards?
Hi! I bought a classic black wallet on chain today for my mom fresh from the boutique, when I went back home I couldn’t find the authenticity card so I immediately contacted my SA, she researched and came back saying that this is a new system, there’s like a metal plate in the bag that has a...

Not sure if blockchain means our data is bind to the bag at purchase... suddenly I have tons of questions...
Do you think this will snuff out resellers? What about people who want to sell the bags years later? Can it be scanned through the screen? Can the tag be cut out? If someone brought preowned and bringn to boutique to scan will it affect purchase history/data with chanel? (ie. Chanel finding out I've sold the bag) Will it make pre-chipped bags worth even more? The bags with no chip would be more heavily circulated in the resale rather than the new ones with chips. The new ones with chips would definitely be at a H resale premium since it marks the start of us having to jump hoops
we are put on the 12/year limit, have to purchase RTW/jewellery, have a relationship with SA etc in order to buy.

My boutique is already enforcing that. I bought a bag earlier this month and again yesterday. My SA was kind enough to put it through as my May purchase. I won't be able to purchase until June.
This person is actually selling info on upcoming collections. I know she’s a VIP. Pretty tacky if you ask me.
Wouldn't the inclusion of blockchain simply make it easier for resellers to prove their bags are legit? How it works is that the chips are a lot harder to hack ( as you can just make an authenticity card ). A chip requires you to know certain information that only Chanel knows, so someone can just bring their bag into the store and scan it. While the card is more tangible, the chip is more secure.
Block chain or not but how as a buyer will you know if the bag is authentic?
I know authenticity card and sticker are not means of authentication but they are 2 important ones!
there are super fakes out there !
Am not sure how authentication services are going to catch up as well !
Agree. Especially bags online by the time you get to scanning it’s too late. I’m curious if chanel would even help confirm bags bought from resellers.
All these insta influencers that turned out to be resellers (a.k.a) personal shoppers : tatyinthecity, hellocatwalk , Charlotteluxe : how can they avail numerous unicorn stocks when there’s a limit?
This I think hello catwalk city’s true colors eventually showed. She buys , asks people if she keeps, for her YT content. When she actually knows the answer. Aside from “projecting to be minimalist” before her popularity and now jumping to bandwagon and all she does is unboxing left and right. The essence of her goals is dwindling down. And it all boils to this: buying Unicorn and selling them for profit down the road.
