Tony Septemat 5:51 pm Hi, I recently sold a Gucci crossbody bag to Fashionphile and they returned it with a letter telling me that the bag was indeed authentic, as I did purchase it first hand from my local Gucci store, but ti was returned because one of the pull zippers had an LV rivet on it. For those purse lovers who'd rather buy their bags outside of a Gucci boutique or authorized resellers like Neiman Marcus and Saks, use these clues to tell real Gucci handbags from fakes. Now, if you own a real Gucci handbag, you know the intense pleasure you get from smelling the Italian leather and rubbing your manicured fingers across all the opulence located inside and outside of this bag. Gucci uses the finest materials- leather, suede, patent leather and nylon, to construct their quality handbags. The bottom six digits represent the particular factory where the leather goods were manufactured. In the picture above, my Gucci Black Perforated Leather Reins Hobo Bag has a style number of 114869. Do all Gucci bags have serial numbers? Based on the age of the bag, Gucci uses 10-12 numbers in the two rows - with no more than six numbers in each row. Step 9- Look for a Gucci bag serial number. A real Gucci will not pucker at the seams or have threads dangling off the bag. An authentic Gucci purse will feature even seams along the sides and bottom of the bag. Step 8 - Check the seams for faulty stitching. Each handbag is sold with a controllato card which is the Italian word for checked.
Gucci has a control system that ensures that all bag purchased by Gucci customers are authentic. If the bag is wrapped in plastic, it is not authentic. Real Gucci products are sold with two types of dust bags. If you see a purse lined in plastic-looking or wrinkly fabric that bunches at the seams, it is not a Gucci product. The inside lining of a bag is a good indicator of overall quality. The stitching on the outside seams of the bag should be uniform, and the bag should feel soft and supple to the touch. Every Gucci bag or Gucci Backpack is constructed from the finest materials-leathers, suedes, patent leather, and canvas.

Examine the fake bag for the use of cheap plastic zippers instead of sturdy metal YKK zippers. Gucci bags use thick and sturdy brass hardware in the construction of their purses. Step 3 - Look for inferior quality zippers, hardware, and clasps. If it is a second-hand Gucci bag, call the store where the original purse was sold to verify the purchase.
Although receipts can be fabricated, the sales associates number and the date of purchase cannot. If there are no closeup pictures, ask the seller for the original receipt. For Gucci purses sold on Ebay or via other online retailers, look for closeup pictures of the GG logo. Standard Items to Review when Buying an Authentic Gucci Handbag, Purse, Backpack or Wallet Step 1 - View the bag for fake Gucci details. If you notice any fraying of the materials on the belt, it is almost certainly a fake. When purchasing a Gucci belt online in the official store, it actually does not include a separate box for the belt, but just has the dark brown bag in the picture. The sole would have GUCCI engraved on it in capital letters followed by the 'Made In Italy' which would be written underneath it.
There is a with studs outside the flap of the bag. ※ Download: ?dl&keyword=gucci+serial+number+lookup&source= Authenticate This GUCCI - Read the Rules & Use the Format in Posts #1 & 2.
