Providing you with authentic and genuine products is something we take pride in. We are able to authenticate items in store using Entrupy.

Our machine learning algorithms compare the images against a database containing millions of records from both authentic and counterfeit products. The AI will either verify the item’s authenticity or return an “unidentified” result for most items in under 5 minutes.

They then provide a certificate of authenticity that is financially backed by them.

**If an item is brought in and the authentication result comes back as “unidentified”, there is a $35 charge.
