Interior tells all: LV date code canvas pattern, YSL heat stamp alignment. Weigh it—heavy = authentic. Zipper pull engraved. Thrift Nordstrom Rack returns rack for deals. Pro move: Buy bundles (scarf + bag). My $320 Dior saddle became $1.2k resale after minor restoration.
Hey, check these 5 spots every time: Date codes (Chanel inside pocket), hardware weight (real gold feels heavy), stitching symmetry, serial numbers match cert card. Thrift hack: Shop fall consignment sales—landed Gucci Dionysus for $450 vs $2k retail. Apps: Entrupy free scan. Smell test: Real leather rich scent. Flip tip: Clean + photos = 2x resale.
