I have been working with Real Authentication for a long time when buying preloved pieces. 4 times they deemed a bag as counterfeit when the seller was claiming and swearing that it was bought in the boutique. I always trusted Real Authentication. But now, I got some bags from a close friend and they started saying that her bags were not real. One of the bags is a Valentino SuperVee and the other one is a Fendi Peekaboo. They stated both are counterfeit. I couldn’t believe so I authenticated both with A1st also, whom said both (Valentino and Fendi) were real. Now I had RA deeming them as fake and A1st deeming as real. I talked to A1st who were extremely professional and kind, I mean it, so kind, and they told me to go look for a 3rd opinion, While Real Authentication said that I should review the order I had with A1st and only answered me many messages later. I found meme treasures and sent the Fendi Bag - the bag was deemed authentic also. So I tried Lollipuff for the Valentino Bag, and They stayed the bag was authentic. It all means - Valentino was deemed authentic by A1st and Lollipuff and deemed fake by Real Authentication. Fendi was deemed authentic by A1st and Meme Treasures and deemed fake by Real Authentication. 2 bags, 3 reputable authenticators says real and only Real Authentication says fake. I would really like to hear any opinions. I feel really sad. It’s really hard to trust people. And I had read some opinion on the web, and since Real Authentication is not into talking or understanding my side or taking another look at the bag, I really wanted to get some opinions to understand how this company really works thru some experiences maybe

The best authentictors (other than some online authentication services) are in these well established consignment stores, if you really wants to find out you can send your bag to consignment, of course the truth may not worth for the efforts.

Frankly, it is very hard to authenticate items on some brands if the authetnictator not keep up with the information, and there are mistakes could be made
