hi there... I wish there were a real expert around to help y'all!

Like I said earlier, I am definitely not an expert - I only own 2 Furlas, and I'm not familiar with that particular style of bag at all. I can tell you that the closeup of the zipper and the lining looks right to me. I can also tell you that on both my Furlas, the zipper pulls say "FURLA" on one side, and then "FURLA" plus a bunch of other stuff on the other side. So you could ask the seller for a picture of the OTHER side of the zipper pull if you wanted to be extra careful. Does that make sense?

(PLEASE, SOMEBODY, we need some real Furla experts in here to come along and give all these nice folks some REAL advice!)

I'm unfortunately not familiar with Furla's newer lines like these, but the second one definitely authentic IMO, while I'd like to see more pictures of the first one

Ah, more info makes this so much easier!! Comparing pictures from the 2 auctions, in the first auction there is a picture of the full inside of the bag (the second picture in the slideshow) -- it doesn't look like it matches the picture of the inside of the bag of the authentic bag shown in the second auction. The picture in the second auction suggests that the bag should be fully lined with the FURLA signature lining, and it doesn't look like the bag in the first auction is. So for the first auction (the one that kcdee0527 was asking about), I'm voting fake. Hope this helps.

sushimushi, I think you'll definitely have better luck if you post those pictures again in the Balenciaga thread: Authenticate This Balenciaga

Hope this helps!
