We have a zero tolerance policy for inauthentic products. Our Quality Control team ensures that all products are received from sellers on the Site and inspected thoroughly before they are shipped to the buyer. Once an item is on its way to you from Loop it is guaranteed that it is 100 percent authentic.
Describing the condition of your listed item accurately and thoroughly is imperative to helping buyers making informed decisions. Further, our experts use this as a basis when assessing an item once it has been sold. If the item sold fails to match the condition listed on our Site, this will result in the cancellation of the order and would negatively impact the rating of a seller.
