Authenticity

We Always Keep It Real

At Relivedbags we authenticate every vintage designer item by hand. Our trained specialists examine brand markings, materials, stitching, hardware, and provenance, and every authenticated item ships with a certificate listing the checks performed and the item’s identifying details.

This process ensures verified authenticity so you know you are buying a genuine vintage piece, clear condition reporting so there are no surprises, and documented provenance when available to strengthen trust.

Our team uses industry standard methods and decades of experience with designer items; if you need additional photos or details about a specific listing, contact our support team and we will provide them promptly.

Initial inspection

Our specialists conduct a hands‑on review of brand markings, materials, stitching, and overall construction to identify inconsistencies or signs of alteration.

Detailed verification

We compare serial numbers, logos, hardware, zippers, and stitching patterns to brand references and archival examples, augmented by microscopic imaging to spot manufacturing details invisible to the naked eye.

Condition and provenance assessment

We document wear, repairs, restorations, and available ownership history, and we use material analysis tools and database crosschecks to corroborate age and source information for a clear, traceable lineage.

Certification and documentation

We compare serial numbers, logos, hardware, zippers, and stitching patterns to brand references and archival examples, augmented by microscopic imaging to spot manufacturing details invisible to the naked eye.

Trusted authentication you can see

Our process combines expert appraisal with advanced testing so you get clear, verifiable proof with every purchase. Alongside each listing we provide the authentication certificate, close up and microscopic images and a permanent digital verification record. Use the listing ID to request a specialist review or additional lab testing and we will walk you through every detail.

Final assurance

Every price reflects careful, documented evaluation and our commitment to transparency. We offer a 100 percent authenticity guarantee: if an item is ever proven inauthentic we will refund the purchase in full and cover return shipping. If you have questions about a valuation or want a deeper condition report, provide the listing ID and our specialists will review the details and explain the factors behind the price.
