Since 2009, we've been committed to fighting counterfeits and ensuring our customers can shop confidently. We do this through our pioneering trust process, blending human expertise, cutting-edge AI, and rigorous authenticity methodologies.

This includes technology we've developed to verify the details of items before they go live on our platform, as well as digital checks by our curation team on select brands/models for extra peace of mind. And when it comes to authentication, our authenticators have unrivalled knowledge and expertise, with support from luxury brands and over 60,000 combined hours of training. They use these skills to physically review items and detail their findings in the Authentication & Quality Control Report, which you can add on to any item for a small additional fee.

But these services are only part of our process. (Learn more about our trust services.)

Of course, no authentication process can be 100% accurate and, very occasionally, a counterfeit item makes it through. If you have doubts about your item's authenticity at any time after purchase, please report it to us directly by following the steps here.

Note: All authentication services are performed independently by Vestiaire Collective.
