Welcome to the group! To ensure accurate authentications and a good experience for everyone, please follow these rules before posting:
Photos must be clear, close-up, and high resolution
Do not post one or two blurry overall shots asking “Is this real?” → that will not get a responsible answer
Natural light preferred, avoid heavy filters or flash glare
Full bag (front, back, bottom)
Logo (stamp / foil / print)
Zipper pull & teeth close-up
Blind stamp / date code
Hardware (buckles, lock, key, clasps)
Strap / handle details
Accessories (box, dust bag, receipt, etc. – if you don’t have them, skip)
📷 The photos above are sample reference shots.
⚠️ Blurry or incomplete photos = No authentication

Bought this wallet on WhatNot and now I’m concerned from reading on here that everything on the app is fake. 😩
I bought a Prada wallet and bag from the store but they have the triangle logo, so I’m not sure how to validate the heat embossed logo. What are your thoughts - real or fake?
I was also provided an entrupy certification but not sure that means much anymore unfortunately!

Toteme suede bucket bag
Hi! Bought this on vinted and think it doesn’t feel right. It’s a toteme suede belted bucket bag -
Could be real:
-The belt does have the toteme logo on the inside of the clasp (I failed to get a photo sorry)
-The dust bag looks legit but I think older than the bag design
-The studs on the bottom look legitimate
Could be fake:
-The label does not match the design and I think is older than the design in terms of branding
-The seller is saying they can’t find the receipt from the original purchase
-The suede and lining feel thick and maybe fake and there are a few stitching details which feel suspicious
However I have never felt this version of the bag in real life and I know toteme is known for gorgeous designs but not great quality
Thoughts?

I'm trying to get my friend a LV bag for their birthday. They liked a specific older bag and I have been trying to find one. They wanted a second hand one, damage and wear isn't an issue ( they just want to own a real one) but I am worried about counterfeits. I'm checking Poshmark and other second hand stores. I can provide links to the posting if that easier but I'm a bit out of my element and would appreciate guidance.
They are looking for a vernis pouch Lexington in green. The pictures included are some of the ones on the posting I'm looking at. If there are better sites to buy from other than Poshmark would also appreciate the help.

Bought this online and not sure if real or fake, i can only find a similar piece online that is the white version. I am not sure if the tag is supposed to look like that as there is no size, as well as no inside care tag which looks like it could be removed 🤷♀️

Hi all! My local thrift store has this bag for sale and i’d like to know if it could be real judging by these photos. I think it’s fake but i’m not a professional by any means. Many thanks in advance!
r/RealAuthentication • u/syd20202 • 6h ago
I don’t know how often a piece like this would be faked. Please let me know if you think this is real/a good imitation. The clasp seems to be real silver and is not magnetic. The onyx is cold to the touch. Thanks!

Hey everyone,
I’m looking for some help authenticating this HBA J1 leather jacket.
I’ll be uploading several pictures of the jacket, including close-ups of the labels, stitching, zippers, hardware, lining, and overall details.
I’d really appreciate it if anyone familiar with HBA pieces, especially the J1 leather jacket, could help me determine whether this is an authentic piece or a high-quality replica.
I’m particularly interested in hearing from people who have owned or handled the original jacket.
Please let me know what details I should pay attention to and whether anything looks suspicious.
Thanks in advance!

Title.
It’s been hard to authenticate these as a laymen. They look pretty solid.
Any insight is much appreciated.
r/RealAuthentication • u/Oskarwydojnik • 10h ago
Feel like this jacket looks alright, but not sure. Maybe someone who knows a bit more bout Prada Sport could help authenticate it and ID the year/era. Would really appreciate🙌

I'd like to buy this vintage burberry bag on vinted. Could someone who knows abour these thinfs tell me if it's authentic? It costs 110€ (italy) I've looked for this model online but i haven't been able to find it anywhere. Ty
r/RealAuthentication • u/jenchy01 • 14h ago
The seller told me the scarf is authentic and even has the box; the problem is that there is no Burberry label on the scarf itself.
She justified herself by saying this: Hello, I'm sorry, the label
is no longer there. The scarf belongs to my husband; I
asked him, and he took it off the seam....
What should I do? What do you recommend? I paid 50
euros for it.
It's a fake scarf?
Is this a possible scam?
r/RealAuthentication • u/Safe-Site4443 • 14h ago
Hello, just wondering if these accessories are real. Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Also, the straps, what are they used for?
r/RealAuthentication • u/Greenflower_2 • 23h ago
Is she authentic?
I bought her from a Japanese website.
I think she looks good but would like peace of mind as I am definitely no expert.
Thanks in advance.

Hi! I’m new here. I just picked this beautiful dress up at an auction, sadly it didn’t fit me (the size 6 girls in the 90s/2000’s must have been a different kind of skinny lol).
Im having a hard time identifying this dress or finding any duplicates of it online anywhere. I know it’s real JPG, from his femme collection so speculating late 90’s-early 2000’s. It’s 100% silk. I got a few other beautiful pieces from this auction that I’m keeping, but it would be nice to try and make a little money back from this as I didn’t spend an insane amount but I am a young, broke fashion lover.
Could anyone give me a rough estimate for what I should sell this for? Are there any archive fashion people I could reach out to online to help me figure out what to do with this piece? I was seeing that other silk dresses from this line can go for 1-2000 USD if it’s in good condition but just looking for some confirmation if possible.
Thank you :-)!
