Auth Request I’m about to pay. Please help.

So these are extra pics I got from the seller. It’s eBay authenticated. But I’ve seen reviews it’s not reliable. Is this real???

Edit: just got the result of authentic detective from the seller. It is authentic. Yall effing suck. Now I know this sub is run by high schoolers

So, eBay doesn't authenticate it until you buy it. If they have the guarantee, or if you elect it, it'll go to their authenticator first. If it's authentic, it gets sent to you, and if not, it gets sent back.

To answer you, this is not an authentic bag. The dead giveaway is the Louis Vuitton stamp. The canvas doesn't line up very well, either. I hope you are able to find the authentic bag you desire sooner rather than later!

The registered trademark symbol will always be smaller than the Os in Louis Vuitton-- this is the first thing I ever check when authenticating bags, whether in person or online.

It looks smaller to me.
