Hey, so I’m sure you’ve heard about buying fake Chanel bags – but do they have authenticity cards? Well, I did some research on this, and here’s what I’ve found out.
Firstly, the authenticity cards with these bags are obviously fake. That’s because Chanel only produces originals that are made with the highest level of craftsmanship. Fake bags don’t even come close, so there’s no chance of them having an authenticity card.
But while fake Chanel bags don’t have an authenticity card, they can still look fairly convincing. Some of them are made with really good quality materials, and the design can even be a fairly close match to the original Chanel bags. But these copies only look real- the fact is, they lack the top-notch construction, and materials that are used for the real bags. That means it’ll be pretty obvious if you compare an original with a fake, even if it hasn’t got an authenticity card.
Another thing to consider is that with fake bags, there’s always the risk of being sold something that’s not up to scratch. There are plenty of dodgy dealers out there who will try and pass off something that’s cheaply made and fake as an original – and the danger is that you certainly won’t get any authenticity cards with those.
So while these fake bags can be convincing from the outside, there’s no way to guarantee that they’re up to the standard of the originals. That’s why, when it comes to buying a Chanel bag, I’d much rather stick to buying an original. Sure, they can be pricey, but you know you’re getting exactly what you pay for.
On top of that, I think it’s really important to support the craftsmanship and quality of these iconic products. Like my Grandma always said, “You get what you pay for” – and when it comes to a Chanel bag, that’s especially true.
Overall, these fake bags may look similarly authentic from the outside, but they simply don’t have the same level of craftsmanship and quality as the originals. I mean, sure, you might save a few bucks doing it – but why skimp on something like a Chanel bag?
So while fake bags can look nice, if you want an authentic Chanel bag, it’s best to invest the money on something directly from the company. That way you can rest assured you’ll be getting great quality, and the peace of mind of an authenticity card to go along with it.
Next, a whole range of different materials and features differentiate originals from fakes. Not only leather, but also hardware, metal, lining, zippers, label, stitching, and hardware details are all used in the making of an original Chanel bag, something which fakes can’t replicate. So, if you’re really looking to spot a fake Chanel bag, these are the details to look out for.
Furthermore, fake Chanel bags may attempt to copy the design and shape, but the logos present on the bag can be very telling. The logo is often the first giveaway; original Chanel bags feature the company’s double ‘C’ logo in various sizes and proportions. On the other hand, fake bags will very likely be missing at least one of these elements, or, have ill-fitting fonts.
Then there’s also the amount of stitching and the placement of it. The stitching should be even and go in a smooth line in the form of two straight stitches. ORIGINAL CHANEL Bags contain the same stitching, without any irregularities. Fake bags, on the other hand, will have crooked lines or other inconsistent patterns.
Similarly, you may also check the engravings on the hardware. Original CHANEL bags will have sharp engravings, especially in regards to the company’s brand name and logo. Fake bags may also have engravings, however, they will be either faint or, completely missing.
Moreover, Chanel bags are made to last, and as such, their hardware should be solid and functional. If the bag has areas of the hardware that are wobbly or, don’t work, it very likely is a fake. Take, for example, the zipper: a fake bag may have a zipper that will be hard to open and snaps off easily.
Finally, the bag’s shape should give you an indication of the authenticity. Fake bags generally won’t keep their shape very well, while an original CHANEL bag should be fabric in a sleek and structured design. Just keep in mind how sturdy and maintained the bag appears, and you should be able to tell if it is the real deal or not.
Going through all these different elements is essential to ensure the authenticity of your purchase. Fake CHANEL bags can be very deceiving, and it takes an understanding of the characteristics of the original bags to be able to spot a fake.
Still, with all these tips in mind I must say it’s not always foolproof. So yes, a way to guarantee the authenticity is to always purchase directly from the company and look for the accuracy of the company’s logo, as well as the gorgeous craftsmanship that’s associated with the brand.
Above all, it’s always important to stay vigilant and do your due diligence when making a purchase. It pays to investigate the products you are interested in, and if you’re unsure, always double-check. So if you’re thinking of getting a Chanel bag, don’t take any chances and trust in the expert craftsmanship and quality that the company promises – then you can be sure you’re getting the real deal.
