Hello, I got these earrings. Seller claims they are authentic, but looking at the stamping marks I'm not so sure. Can anyone help me please? I paid a lot and I'm very worried. Thank You in advance!

Need better lighting on photos please; or use an editor to lighten them...
For sure better photo of the mark is needed.

Ok, I tried my best this time, also added the box and front. Thx a lot!
What worries me is that the stamp is not laser engraved and it's very deep and thick, unreadable.

Since you say you spent a lot of money, my opinion is that a $7.50 authentication would be an inexpensive investment for reassurance.
There used to be a professional authentication company that specialized in Chanel but they've since retired. I've used Authenticate4U for Chanel. You can contact them through their Facebook page by sending a private message. Verify that they do Chanel jewelry and they'll give instructions for payment.

I've read a lot of bad opinions about Real Authenticate, that they authenticated pieces other places said to be fakes. Probably finally i will contact Lollipuff, but if You recommend Authenticate4U I will consider them, as they are cheaper. But I'm searching for all the help I can get.

The thing I like about A4U is that they use HUMAN authenticators and they have brand specialists, meaning that they don't have one or 2 "experts" judging across multiple brands. Each brand has authenticators who really know the brand.
In the past, the main complaint about A4U was their lack of speed of response when contacting through email but since they've had their FB account, I've found the messaging response time to be very fast.
Depending on the speed of their authenticators, authentication time can vary but it's usually within a day or two, sometimes only hours!
From what I've observed, the accuracy of their work is unmatched.

From what I can see on their website, A4U do not authenticate Chanel jewelry 😞 they only do authenticate Chanel leather goods.

I do not like the poor detail of the casting, or that the mark looks to be an added tag (not stamped in original casting)..
Yet I am not expert on this stuff.

These are also my concerns! 😞 that's why I'm searching for help and opinions. Thank You very much for Yous!

Yeah, it seems so, that it's different material. Also the engraving should be laser made? And I think that these earrings are from continuous collection, so the marking should be V not B 🙈 but it's what I found out on some blogs, so not sure about it.

I made a research and found out backs of other earrings of this type, same models. They look so much nicer, they are readable, laser made, sharp, not blurry! I'm starting to be depressed 😔

TPF used to have at least one person who knew Chanel jewelry but I don't think she posts there any more.
Let me see if she's around.

I don’t know who authenticates Chanel jewelry but I don’t like those plates and I don’t like the caps on the pearls. I would not keep them. Can you post the listing number?

I didn't want to add my opinion but I had the same impression as you.
