The. Real. Real Reviews 3. Reviews of Therealreal. I have spent many hours shopping on The Real Real recently, and the whole experience was awfulI ordered 1. Celine Shearling coat I paid for they sent a cheap Alexander Wang that doesnt even look like I ordered. So far, no one can tell me where the Celine coat I ordered is, which is frustrating as it is a gift for someone I need now And, three items are missing and no one again can tell me where they are. I also called and kept requesting the stores to deliver to a Fed. Ex dropoff, but very few of them actually complied. I do want to note, that customer service has tried to be helpful but the wait times arent fun. If it was just one item with a problem, that could be understood, but there seems to be a systemic issue that isnt being addressed. I would not recommend anyone using Real.

When you think designer copies, Chanel handbags are probably the first to come to mind. There are tons out there. Some obvious, and some, well, a little trickier to catch.

Serial 185 Among the most desirable Colts in todays market are those earmarked for the United States Marine Corps. Factory letter lists serial number 185 as having. Weve put together a simple step by step guide to be sure. Below, we have a photo of three classic Chanel Flap Bags. Two are authentic, one is a fake. Can you spot it The fake on is actually the one at the bottom. Hard to tell, right Keep reading to find out exactly how we knew. CC Lock The first thing we always look at is the CC Lock its a quick giveaway. The right C must always overlap on top and the left C must always overlap on the bottom. If this is not the case with a bag you are about to purchase, you can guarantee that it is not authentic. In the picture below, the bag on the left is a replica and the bag on the right is authentic. As you can see, this replica bag we rejected passed the CC Lock test, however keep reading to find out how it failed on others. Notice how on the authentic Chanel right, the CC lock is centered. On the replica Chanel left, it is positioned more towards the top than the bottom. Replica Chanel CC locks usually have a rounded finish on the CC. Authentic Chanel CC locks have a flat edge finish. The width of each C should also match the width of the gap between the two Cs. The back of the CC hardware should have two screws, with CHANEL embossed on the left, and PARIS embossed the right. Authentic Chanel Replica Chanel. Duster Bag. When comparing the two duster bags side by side, you can see a clear difference between the authentic duster and the fake duster. The left duster is authentic and the right duster is fake. On the authentic duster left, you can see that CHANEL is written in white, bold letters centered in the middle. On the fake duster right, you can see that CHANEL is written in a faded grey color. It is also written in the wrong front, which appears to be thinner. The fake logo is also slightly off centre on the duster. Serial Numbers. Serial numbers on Chanel bags indicate the bag model and year of manufacture. Do a quick Google search, and you will discover tons of guides online to help you find out what what year your Chanel bag was manufactured. Chanel does not produce bags with serial numbers of 9 digits or more. If this is the case, its a fake. On the Chanel 2. 5. Zipper. Dont forget to inspect your zipper. The zippers they use change depending on what year the bag was manufactured. Check that the zipper on your handbag is consistent with the year it was created. Authenticity Cards. First, check that the authenticity card matches the serial number inside the bag. If it does, its a good sign, but that does not necessarily mean it is authentic. Authenticity cards are very easily replicated. Below, you will see two authenticity cards. The right card is fake and the left card is authentic. Normally, you can tell if you have a fake authenticity card if it has a hologram, rainbow effect. Authentic cards never have this hologram effect. The fake card below is a good fake, since you cannot see the hologram effect. Authentic cards must also have the consistency of a credit card. In the case below, the fake card felt very flimsy and was easily bent. All the information must be straight and aligned. Bags from 2. 00. 5 and onwards feature a grey circular symbol at top right. As you can see in the picture below, the fake card symbol is more white, compared to the grey authentic symbol. If the authenticity card does not have a symbol at the top right, it means that it was made pre 2. You can also see a slight difference in font between the two cards. Chain Strap. To tell if the chain strap is authentic, a lot of it has to to with the weight. In our case, the chain strap on the authentic bag was much heavier than is fake counterpart. A huge telling sign for us with regards to the chain strap was the stitching on the leather intertwined between the chain. On the authentic handbag gold tone hardware, you will see that the stitching is clean and seamless. You do not see any crooked lines or bumps. On the fake bag silver tone hardware, there was obvious bumps where is was stitched sometimes slightly unsewn, it was crooked and uneven. Below is a zoomed picture to get a better idea. Avaya Cdr Software. Lets get a little closer. You can see on the replica Chanel chain silver tone hardware, there is a double layer on the top flat part of the leather. One the authentic Chanel, there is no double layer on the top flat part of the leather. There is seamless, perfect stitiching. Replica Chain. Authentic Chain 7 Stitch Count. Authentic Chanel bags should have a high stitch count more than 1. Fake Chanel bags usually have a low stitch count, which creates an overall puffier look on the handbag. Leather. If you close your eyes and touch the caviar leather on both bags, you would notice that you feel the embossed pebbled caviar more on the authentic bag. The fake Chanel caviar leather did not feel as embossed and felt flatter and smoother. Take a close look and make sure the imprint is unique. On fake leather, the imprint is sometimes repeated. Quilting. The quilting should always maintain a consistent diamond pattern even when the front flap is closed. This also applies to the pocket on the back. Overall Quality, Structure The biggest telling sign for us between the two bags was the overall quality. In the picture below, the bag on the left is authentic, and the bag on the right is a replica. When you placed both down, the authentic Chanel was much sturdier, structured and stood up straight. The fake Chanel did not stand straight, folded, and was clearly not as structured as the authentic. Chanel uses the best materials that are made to last this should not happen, even with older models. You can also see how the replica bag silver tone hardware folds more from a birds eye view it is thinner at the top. The chain straps also start further back on the authentic version. Lining. The lining is a good indication of the quality of an item. In an authentic Chanel bag, the lining fits snugly inside with no bumps. It is normally very difficult to separate the lining from the bag. When we compared this to the replica, the lining was baggy and loose and extremely easy to pull out from the bag. Stamping. Make sure that the CHANEL stamping inside the bag matches the color of its hardware. We hope this guide will help you make safer and smarter shopping decisions.
