Hi Ladies, could you please help me authenticate this bag?

There are a few scratches on the front of the bag. Do these scratches blend into a patina over time ? Your opinions on anything about this bag or this seller is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance.

Hello ! Pepper , Are you sure about that bag isn't togo leather. As the seller in Japan told me about that. What is the skin? I only have those pics. Please advise me.

If it were an authentic bag, I would say clemence, but I don't think it's authentic. Also, what color does the seller say this is?

Dear Gracekelly,

Could you please advise me about this bag? What is the several things that aren't right? Thank you.

jibb99, we do not discuss details here....

This bag does not convince the authenticators.

I agree with the others about this bag not being authentic. What color did the seller tell you the bag is jibb99? I am interested in knowing too. Thanks

Hello. I just bought a GM shawl from this seller and it was a wonderful experience. The seller was very accommodating, responds quickly and the items are authentic. I think you're in good hands with ysaito. Hope it helps.

Hi! She said "That bag is the etoupe color"

If this were an Hermes bag, it could be Taurillon Clemence Gris Tourterelle or Gris pale....

This color is in NO WAY etoupe.....

As far as i am concerned, I would like to see a whole set of pics of this bag.
Could you please read again the 1st post of this thread and see if you can post the suggested pics ?

Pepper · Jul 9th, 2009, 12:59 PM

It cannot be etoupe, if the details on the bag are correct. It is not technically possible.

This bag is authentic.
This seller is reputable.

ALL scratches blend into a patina over USE...not just time ! This means you must be brave and use your bag a lot in order to make the patina finally happen ....But I can't see any obstacle to use such a beautiful bag

Love that you stress USING ones H bags.
Such a Euro concept: USE it LOVE it ENJOY it.
Thanks for the gentle reminder that these bags are meant to be worn and just
get better and better over time.
