Authentication and Quality Control
At Affordable Luxury, we take authenticity seriously and go above and beyond to ensure that every item meets our rigorous standards. Every purchase is backed by our Authenticity Guarantee - or 100% of your money back.
With extensive experience in the luxury resale market, we have developed a deep understanding of the world’s most coveted brands, their craftsmanship and the details that distinguish an authentic piece from a counterfeit. Every item that becomes part of our collection undergoes a thorough authentication and quality control process by our experienced in-house team, with each piece assessed according to the characteristics specific to its brand, model and production period.
It´s in the details
Authenticating luxury goes far beyond checking a logo or serial number. Our authentication team meticulously examines the details of each luxury item - from materials, craftsmanship and construction, to stitching, hardware, engravings, serial numbers, certificates and other identifying characteristics, including weight and smell. We assess each item as a whole, carefully evaluating its consistency with the characteristics of the specific brand, model and production period, as well as any accompanying accessories and documentation. Each part is assessed for its quality, branding and distinctive characteristics, providing additional details that support our authentication process.
AI-powered technology
As an additional layer of verification, we also use Entrupy, an advanced AI-powered authentication technology. Using machine learning and image recognition, Entrupy analyses detailed visual characteristics and compares them against extensive datasets to identify patterns, inconsistencies and other indicators of authenticity. This provides our experienced authentication team with an additional layer of analysis and verification, strengthening an already rigorous authentication process.
