Lets start with the basics. 1st, visit an authentic Gucci retailer. Take the bag with to compare or take note of the characteristics of Gucci's bags and compare later to your bag.
- Is the handbag real leather? Couple of ways to tell; smell it. Leather has a distinctive smell. if you rub it between your fingers, like skin, leather absorbs the natural oils in your fingers. Plastic (or vinyl) wont absorb the oils but it will get shiny.
- If you havent checked for any designer logos or labels inside or around the bag, now is a good time. Vintage handbags have more value WITH the tags attached however, if the previous owner removed them, there are other determining factors.
- Take the bag to an appraiser. Believe it or not, you can take handbags in to get a quote on its value.
- If ever you need to get the bag fixed, ask the merchant who fixes our bag if its leather or if the handbag comes with a stamp of authenticity. This is usually shown on the rougher side of the leather (in between the lining of the bag). ***I suggest you let a professional take the handbag apart or inspect it for further investigation.
If the handbag is real, high quality leather, what does it matter if its Gucci or not? Are you crazy about labels but know its a fake? Dont share the news. We're in a recession, invest in a real handbag or save your money.
