How to Know if a Chanel Bag Is a Knockoff

If you purchase your Chanel handbags from a flea market or the trunk of an old car in an alley, chances are you already know whether or not yours is a fake. But if you find a ‘great’ deal on vintage Chanel bags on eBay or any other discount retailer, do your homework before purchasing; manufacturers of the fakes are getting pretty good at copying the originals.
Instructions
1. Step 1
Authentic Chanel bag will have a serial number. The serial number will feature 7 numbers if made in the 1980′s and 8 numbers if made in the 1990′s. Newer bags have a plastic shield protecting the serial number; there is no shield in older bags. The serial number card should be black with gold trim and white or gold lettering!
2. Step 2
Authentic older Chanel bags will have a white sticker with gold CC’s on it.
3. Step 3
The logo is a huge tip-off; original Chanel bags logos have interlocking CC’s with the top portion of the right C overlapping the top of the left C, the same is true for the bottom C’s. Look for mispelling as well!
4. Step 4
All of the hardware will match on authentic Chanel bags, including the chains, zippers and eyelets. The logo stamp will also match the hardware; this stamp will indicate where it was made on the opposite side of the bag in block letters or in an oval.
5. Step 5
On one side of the zipper there will be the Chanel stamp, the other side will have the logo.
6. Step 6
The stitching on a fake will be uneven and sloppy.
7. Step 7
The most common counterfit Chanel bags feature the serial numbers:
