Authenticate Kate Spade

LaFajita · Jul 17th, 2008, 03:47 PM

Can someone please tell me if there is a website to authenticate Kate Spade handbags? A while back I got zinged by VERO for selling what I thought was an authentic Kate Spade on eBay.

In the process of getting scolded, someone sent me an authentication site which was very helpful, but I can't find it now. Please help! I've been given 3 Kate Spades to sell on eBay and I don't want to get zinged again! Thanks.

good. tag is good. it has the "licence plate" logo and larabee dot lining like much of the current collection. I would feel OK bidding/buying if I were you.

Though when the photos are not as good, other things to check are zipper pull (probably should be folded leather with a stitch, for this bag), and that little tab that hangs down from the leather trim on the inside pocket should say Kate Spade (probably in gold lettering0>

Hi ballet_russe,
What do u mean by little tab that hangs down from the leather trim on the inside pocket? U mean the tab at the zip ?
