hi everyone. i recently purchased this jacket on ebay and i need help authenticating it. does anyone have a link for a legitimate site or can help me? i have three other burberry jackets and the one i just bought looks a little different—especially the tags—which are a completely different material all together. any insight is greatly appreciated. i have attached pictures for reference. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0f5Q4bXzx_TYfBt-2XUTlXb7w#Home

I'll put it this way.
If I were thrifting and found that jacket, I would have purchased it!
I did find a Burb trench coat while thrifting and based on the quality bought it, invested $7.50 in a professional authentication and resold it for a pretty profit.
@mupcycledcouture is one of the board's Burberry experts. Maybe she'll chime in with an opinion.

my sister is a full time thrifter and i’ve gotten several burberry jackets from her. i’m very lucky. this particular jacket just looks a little different than my others (it’s London and i only have Brit). i really appreciate your advice. i was going to rp because it dawned upon me that no one is probably going to click a link on a random ebay post… i tried to upload the photos manually, but it said they were too big.
what authentication site did you use? i am a little hesitant to use them, but if you can recommend a good one, i definitely will! ty

I've used authenticate4u for Burb 2 or 3 times. Contact them through FB messenger, verify the price and get PP email in order to Paypal the fee. Then you can upload your pictures directly through facebook messenger.

There are my concerns.
The main label is sewn in crooked. It should line up evenly with the check print.
Something about the inner small label bothers me, but I don't know what exactly.
I expect the tags to be made from a thicker material, if that makes sense.
I would pay to have this authenticated. Maybe in recent years they have moved to less expensive materials, haven't we all?

hi, that is what i thought too. the material for the tag is different than the two other jackets i already own. both tags actually, the inner one and the size tag. i am paying to have it authenticated via legitgrails. thanks for the help everyone!

Please let us know what they say! I am interested on the outcome of this.
