Counterfeit

[911sallysally]

I recently bought a Chanel bag from an eBay seller , used it for less than a month, and wanted to resell it. I listed it and then it was removed by EBay .. eBay through the it was fake ! I bought it from EBAY !!!! I have the authenticity card of the bag..

If you have had it less than a month, file for an INAD return.

Your seller will have to allow you to return for refund.

Open Item not as described case and state eBay deemed the bag fake.

Pika, read that label with the bags ID no. Does that wording of the entire sentence with " exact quality control" sound strange?

Now purses aren't my bag ( no pun intended) and I couldn't hold a candle to @albertabrightalberta 

and jsales but hopefully they look at it.

Yes my friend, It does read strange but some of those tags are worded rather oddly.

Chanel isn't a brand I authenticate. I know several do on this board.

I wont even hazard a guess and even a guess would be difficult for me without photos of the entire bag. 

The card & metal plate are not sufficient because it's possible to put an authentic tag on a fake bag. 

Hopefully the OP will post a few more photos of the entire bag. 

But my advice since they were selling &  eBay already removed it is that they seek a refund from the seller they bought it from.

ETA For heaven's sake I just found one of those tags FOR SALE right here on eBay! SMH

When did they start allowing this?

@911sallysally Please post a picture of the Chanel made and label, the hologram sticker which is attached to the lining inside the bag, the hardware and a picture of the front and back of the bag. eBay is notorious for removing authentic bags they believe are fake and allowing counterfeit bags they believe are authentic. If it is not authentic you can file a return request with eBay and if that doesn’t work you can go directly to your bank or credit card and do a charge back. I am happy to help you.

@silverstatetreasureboxes Yes, that is what an authentic Chanel card looks like and reads like however an authentic card does not mean the bag that accompanies it is authentic.

@pikabo-icu @justagirl12 

Wow! Are those for real??? That isn't right selling those tags for Chanel bags! I'm speechless, pika you should start a new selling post covering this to see what everybody thinks. sis

@justagirl12. thank you for all you do here, I wouldn't know a Chanel from a Channel...lol

[justagirl12]

I only come here occasionally. This thread caught my eye though and I wanted to help.

I can't comment on this particular Chanel bag especially with so few pictures that don't show much of anything! 

What I can say is that sometimes, ebay will err on the side of caution when it comes to an inexperienced seller and highly faked items. 

What did the removal notice say? 

If you post more pictures, perhaps someone will be able to tell if the bag is fake or not. The following was copied from another forum where purses are authenticated and are requested for Chanel opinions.

PHOTOS NEEDED TO DETERMINE AUTHENTICITY OF CLASSIC FLAP BAGS

1) front, back, and side/bottom views of bag
2) CHANEL stamp and MADE IN FRANCE/ITALY stamp (note: in vintage bags, the MADE IN FRANCE/ITALY stamp is directly across the CHANEL stamp on the opposite side). A focused close up photo is required.
3) back side of the CC turnknob showing the 2 screws and CHANEL/PARIS engraving. A focused close up photo is required.
4) engraving on the interior zipper head and hanging ornament, if applicable. A focused close up photo is required.
5) engraving on snap button
6) stitched CC logo, if applicable
7) hologram sticker. A focused close up photo is required.
😎 number side of authenticity card, if still available

@911sallysally Please post pictures of the Chanel made in label located on the inside of the bag and the hologram sticker which is a series of numbers also located on the interior lining of the bag.

Unbelivable::

So does the card feel like a credit card of more like a businesses card>

 Does it slightly bend easy or hard is what I am asking....
