Authenticate First authenticators have bought, sold and studied brands like Louis Vuitton for many years. We have authenticators worldwide who can help you, regardless of what country you are in. We are here to protect you from being ripped off by con artists who want nothing more than to steal your money and leave you holding a fake. We have seen firsthand thousands of auctions and websites charg

ing hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars for a fake. Although efforts have been made by sites such as eBay for post-auction problems, it is still a stressful time for you if you buy a fake. Some sites offer no help and leave you hanging, not to mention your money is tied up until it is all settled. Authenticate First can also help you with verification paperwork should you need to file a claim with your credit card company or a website. If at all possible, always authenticate first before you buy. Please see our Pre-Sale Evaluation to alleviate the stress before a purchase. Currently, we are able to provide authentication for the following designer brands. This includes handbags, wallets, small leather goods, footwear, jewelry, accessories and clothing:
Alexander McQueen
Alviero Martini
Balenciaga
Belstaff
Bottega Veneta

Luxury craftsmanship is built on precision, consistency, and quality materials. Counterfeit products may imitate the appearance of authentic items, but often fail to replicate the details that define true luxury. AuthenticateFirst examines those differences carefully.
