Help authenticating Chanel purse

[theunpackedrat]

 I would like to get some help on whether or not this purse is authentic?  It looks like a high-quality authentic, however the serial numbers coming back as a known fake number.

Your best bet is to post this on the fashion board. They're the best at authenticating designer bags.

Post this on the fashions board located under Groups.

I meant the one under Categories, I didn't even know there was one under Groups lol.

If you are on this board, you have to click on groups, to get to ebay categories.

So it was directions on how to get there.

You have doubts based on the number comming back as fake.

You would be best to not list it, Chanel is one of the brands that will take you down Vero fast.

That is not a helpful reply.....

I'm 99% sure that is fake.

I've asked to have the thread moved to the Fashion Board for you.

The bag was not made by Chanel. The fonts are off and the C's on the sticker are not even close. Sorry.

You can always use a pro if you'd like.

The hardware is also incorrect.

The bag is fake. 10218184 is the #1 fake Chanel serial number! Any bag with that number is fake.

Google "chanel 10218184"

Actually, that was a VERY helpful reply. 

Often, a simple googling of a serial number tells you all you need to know.

@theunpackedrat
I strongly suggest you end that Dooney listing!
