I keep getting bags rejected by eBay authentication over authenticity concerns, despite knowing the bag's originator personally and/or certifying it with certain authenticators, that eBay doesn't care about. Then, I'm slapped with several day bans on selling, now extending to 10 days each time. I can't go on like this. Is there any third party authentication service for handbags that eBay will take as authoritative enough to dispute their own 'findings'?

Is eBay authentication for handbags even real?

Is the problem with only one brand of bag?

which brand bag,

Plus define what you mean by the bags originator. the originator could be the forger

Not a single brand of bag, I need an authentication service that eBay can trust. Bag's originator as in the person who gave us the bag, could be a trusted client or even store.

Have people had good experience with Entrupy? Is that pretty much what eBay uses or would they rather dispute that as well?

Well there you go, obviously not a trusted client, and do you believe all stores sell legit bags.

I'm curious as to who ' certain authenticators ' actually are. ??

It looks like you're drop shipping a fair few bags from Hong Kong.

How do you know they are authentic, considering the Chinese have a reputation for 'off brand' items?

I don't know 100% that they are authentic, but then again I don't know 100% that eBay is being always truthful about what's authentic or not. Hence the query about finding an authenticator that is better aligned with eBay (that would make calls similar to eBay's whether or not they are 100% correct)

The major point is about finding a better authenticator which I believe we can all agree is a good thing.

eBay accepted third party authentication for handbags?
