The HANDBAG AUTHENTICATION RESOURCE page contains very important information on authenticating several different types of designer bags, including Balenciaga, Chanel, Coach, Dooney & Bourke, Fendi, Gucci, Herems, Kate Spade, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs and Prada, as well as other information on determining the authenticity of handbags and what to do if you believe you've already purchased a fake bag.
HANDBAG AUTHENTICATION RESOURCES If you have questions regarding a specific designer, you should check this page and see if you can locate the info that you're looking for here. If you still have questions or concerns after reading these pages, you can contact the members who authored the page on the designer you have questions about, or post your question here and one of our many helpful & knowledgeable members may come along and help you out (you can post your question on this thread, or better yet, start a new thread specifically for your question).
There used to be a link to this page at the top of the Message Boards so that it could be easily found, but I understand that link has been removed. I'm hoping that ebay will once again keep this near the top, but until then, with your help (and the occassional post), we can keep this near the top ourselves.
