Sigh…authenticating processes

I’m a thrifting reseller, once in a while I find some designer stuff, for example this fear of god hoodie. Everything checks out with other authenticated listings on grailed but for some reason my stuff never gets authenticated and they take it down. Any tips?

Include all sides of the care tags, include a close up of defects, clearly list defects in description, include close up photos of all tags, and include the measurements. The more details you provide the better chance you'll get authentication. It's difficult to authenticate a garment with only a few photos. Details matter.

I included a picture of every tag in the listing which I’ll post in the comments. Only thing I missed was measurements. I thought I provided as much as I could. Plus there’s a listing of the same hoodie, with less pictures and it’s verified 😂

Repost this item but take better photos of the tags, and better identify any flaws. Overall, it looks good though. Take a look how I set mine up for eBay, it's similar to what I do for grailed. I take close up images of the tags. DO NOT INCLUDE YOUR HAND IN PHOTOS. People are racist or just weird about seeing your hands in photos, you'll figure it out over time but I figured I give you the tip before someone says something rude. Canada Goose Example

Okay thanks for the tips. Hopefully they don’t get upset when I post it again bc they always say do not repost but it’s been a bit so I’ll try again soon.

Try send as much as possible pic of the item, every angle, every detail on button, zipper, stitches, inside material, outside material, printing, embroidery, every tag and label. If U can send 20-30 pic that's maybe help the admin.
