How to tell a Fake Chanel bag! | Ep. 14 The Luxury Investment Podcast

Welcome back to the Luxury Investment Podcast by Currently Carter. Thank you so much for listening or watching. If you are watching on my YouTube channel, I video all of my episodes there. How to Tell If Your Chanel Bag Is Fake... Here's the deal, guys. There are so many different ways to authenticate a bag depending on the brand, which is why it is so confusing when you are buying from the preloved market and you're wanting to authenticate your bag. I wanted to go over a few of the tips and tricks of different things you need to be looking out for for fakes, as well as to authenticate correctly. There is so much misinformation out there when it comes to trying to authenticate yourself and there are so many third parties where one will say something is authentic and the next one won't. The only thing consistent about Chanel is that it's inconsistent. They have changed their stance, their style, their font, their lettering so many times throughout the years it is insanely difficult to keep up.

If you are video inclined Now, today's episode is coming as a request from my Instagram, which of course you can find in the links down below. Today is episode nine and it's going to be a doozy. We're getting a little controversial today because we are talking about the best and worst buys from every luxury brand. What I was specifically talking about today is going to be pertaining to investment value because of course, this whole podcast is about luxury investments and how to turn your closet into an investment portfolio. So we're strictly talking about when you buy something from a brand, how much it appreciates or depreciates over a period of time in your closet. So I'm going to be naming specifics. What is the best item from a brand that you can buy as far as investment value, as far as resale value, as far as asset value? And the opposite. What is an item from that brand that depreciates in value the second you buy it? If you buy that item retail and walk out of the store and you went to go sell it straight away, you would not get your full investment out of it. You would get the worst return on investment out of all the other items in the store. For more about this subject please listen or watch this episode! I Hope you enjoy it!

If you're new to this hunting for luxury hotel game... I'm a veteran. And the way you do that, honestly, is asking questions. I did not know all this in the very beginning of how to deal hunt. I started staying in nice hotels and then I started kindly, pleasantly asking questions, just inquisitively to my concierge or maybe to the front desk. Just how things work. The more you understand about this industry, the more you'll know where to put your money and how it's going to benefit you the most in your future trips.

What's costume jewelry vs. fine jewelry? And then we're going to get into a bit of watches of what's an investment watch and how to get one. What is an investment jewelry piece? To answer that question, we really have to define two categories costume jewelry and fine jewelry. Most of the time when you're talking about fashion houses, they do have both for let's take Chanel, for example. They have costume jewelry and then they have a fine jewelry department. They're fine Jewelry is much less popular than their costume jewelry. And it's not available in as many boutiques, for example. But it does exist. When you're talking about fine jewelry, you're talking about precious metals, gold, 24K gold, 18K gold, silver and stones, precious stones. And the on the opposite side of the spectrum, you have costume jewelry or fashion jewelry, which is most of the time low in metals that are coated with maybe a 24K gold, or they're coated with just a base metal in general.
