It looks pretty good so far, but a close up of the kate spade tag that's clearer would help.

Please authenticate this Kate Spade. Material feels like wool. Purchased this on ebay a while back and was told authentic. I always thought authentic until I really looked at the bottom and one end seems to be a little "off" as far as the seam. There are no tags inside that say "kate spade". Its pretty plain inside just with a black lining, one zippered compartment. It also has that "fold" on top of the bag which snaps close. TIA

Looks good so far, but I would ask the seller for a closeup pic of the small tag sewn into the interior wall zip pocket (if there is one). It should have a thin holographic strip on it. If it doesn't have this tag, then it's a fake.

Good luck!

It doesn't look authentic from the pics you've posted. The font is off, and it's crowded. It is most certainly a fake. Sorry

They all look good for what pictures there are, but none really have enough pictures. The first one could use a good picture of the leather nameplate on the front. The second is only a stock picture. The second and fourth seem most likely real, but you should ask if you can see a picture of the hardware on the fourth one to see if it says kate spade. All are pictures of real kate spade bags/shoes, but with so few or stock pictures it's hard to be sure that's what you'll be getting.

Default Pretty sure I bought a fake Kate Spade handbag
Unfortunately I did my homework AFTER purchasing on eBay and discovered how prevalent fake handbags are. I think this is probably a fake partly because I paid so little for it ~$45 w/ shipping. I feel obligated to let the seller know if it is. Can anyone here help me out?
