You think it's actual holes though; the pictures are so damn dark I can't tell if it's already been re-weaved in those spots. I asked the seller, no response.

Then pass. If he’s not serious about informing a potential buyer then that’s enough for me to move on.

Hey guys! Came across this Celine box bag and just wanted to know what your thoughts are on this one? I’m a bit dubious about the white stitching.

I personally haven't seen them with white stitching in store but it seems like they do exist (e.g. here https://www.fashionphile.com/celine-box-calfskin-medium-classic-box-flap-amazone-273593 but with different leather).
Can you post a close up of the metal closing buckle ? A lot of fakes I've seen didn't get the finishing right.
The accent on the E seems a bit sloppy. On the inside there should also be a "Made in Italy" stamp.

Too, the scale of the “PARIS” lettering relative to the CELINE is off. The former is too big.

I do see what you mean. I'll ask the seller for more close up pictures but I don't think I'll be getting it anyways regardless if it's real. The white stitch is just throwing me off. I don't fancy the contrast with the bag itself. Also, the leather will probably scratch easier than the others. Thank you so much for your insight!

Hi guys, wondering if i can have your opinion ! Been looking at buying this Dior zip up. Is labeled sportswear so think it must be from before 2000's. Seller claims it is authentic but after digging round online I am struggling to find any the same on vintage resell sites or able to find any more info regarding it. Let me know what you think about it !

Hey guys! I hope everyone is doing okey. Anyways, found another bag that I was hoping y’all can check for me? I love this specific design so I pray it’s the real deal. ❤️ If not then at least I won’t end up spending a lot of money for nothing. Lmao. TIA!
