I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure there are Zac Posen fakes floating around. You might want to get your bag authenticated.

hi guys,
i am still desperatly looking for the nightingale on ebay. i know that it's not supposed to be very safe, but i think i found an authentic seller. the starting bid on the bag is 450 dollars. she sent me a very sweet email:

" I guarantee authenticity..the smell of the leather (this is one of
the real way to tell it : ), the care card that acts as certificate of
authenticity already. and also you can verify it with the givenchy
boutique but it depends on where you live.
[FONT=Arial, Verdana][SIZE=2]In terms of authenticity, if you still question it you can go to my
account, Pacharee... I only buy and sell authentic fashion items.
Items I sold include Derek Lam bag and I have bought Chanels
and am very expert at telling the fake stuff : )
The reason I"m using this account is because one of the selling
on ebay is not truthful so I would not pay for the item and she
totally block my account. I am now working on getting my
account back but I need money to buy the new valentino bag so I
am using my sister's account. "

i put up the pictures of the bag here

i would really appreciate any input on this decision!! thanks a lot!!

Hi Leefi, the one on the fireplace looks real to me. What is your question? Do you just want to buy another nightingale?

Hi Leefi, are your pic of the same bag? The one on the fireplace looks totally real. I just got mine from www.barneys.com last week. Is the email you posted from the seller you bough it from? I would be happy to help if I could understand your question better. xo

Leefi · Sep 15th, 2007, 08:50 AM

hi jagg!
sorry if i wasn't clear. the pictures are all of the same bag. i was asking, if the bag looks authentic because everyone's been saying that there are almost only fake nightingales floating around ebay.
i was trying to give you guys all information, which included the email of the seller and the pictures she sent me!

Leefi · Sep 15th, 2007, 08:59 AM

i don't own the bag yet, i am thinking about buying it and thats the email the seller sent me after my questions of authenticity! i was hoping to get some advice, if i should buy it!

jagg · Sep 15th, 2007, 12:06 PM

Hi Leefi, so the bag on the firelace is the same as the other pictures? I am confused. Do you own a nighingale now? xo

Leefi · Sep 15th, 2007, 12:20 PM

yes, the bag on the fireplace is the same as the other pictures! the picture on the fireplace and the picture of the inside, are the ones that are actually on the ebay listing. the other pictures are the ones that the seller sent me through email.
i am thinking about buying this bag, but wanted to get an opinion from other people first, if it is authentic!

jagg · Sep 15th, 2007, 01:09 PM

what is the listing url?

Leefi · Sep 15th, 2007, 01:14 PM

jagg · Sep 15th, 2007, 01:17 PM

I see that person copied pictures from another seller, they will probably be kicked off anytime now. bummer

Leefi · Sep 15th, 2007, 08:54 PM

i'm really unsure about what to do now. i though she seemed quite trustworthy but i guess you never know with ebay. i just know that i reaaaally really want that bag!!

jagg · Sep 15th, 2007, 10:17 PM

I hope you find one, did you want the larger one?
