RRP? And this: Item Name: NWT Drk Brown Bottega Veneta Cocker Woven Bag Item No: 180427745240 Seller ID: yogabutet Link: http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/ws/eBayISAPI....=STRK:MEWAX:IT Kindly advise on season collection and RRP for this as well? Not familiar with BV Bag but simply loves them now. TIA!

The first bag is known as the Circle bag, but I don't know if it's an official name. It hasn't been made for several years--I don't know specifically when it first came out, but based on the details, this bag is at least 5 years old. I don't know the original retail price. I hope other members see this because I think at least one member here has this bag.

The second bag, Cocker, was a classic style for many years but a year ago BV stopped producing them. Since Ebano is a color made every season, I don't know how old this bag is. The 2008 retail price was $1880.

Both are Cervo leather.

If you look at the section called Feedback Dropbox, there are posts about posting photos. Believe me, I sympathize with you--I can barely post photos.

Item Name: **NWT** BOTTEGA VENETA TURBULENCE PURPLE CAMPANA

Comment: Do you guys think the bag is really in Brand New condition? because from what I can see the bottom part, the bag has been used at least couple of time. Again Thank you!!

Hi there, i suggest you read and research this thread a little bit if you don't have a chance to go to a BV store to see the details in person. We don't reveal what leads us to conclude something is a fake because it might help fakesters.

authentic IMO. remember the nappa is a very soft leather so that may be what you are seeing. this also could be a display model. the price is very good - retail is $1980.

I posted this in the thread for eBay finds; I believe it's authentic also. Turbolence was a Fall-Winter 2008/2009 color, so the bag is a year old, even if it hasn't been used. As doloresmia said, nappa leather is very silky-soft and a minor small scuff is possible even with careful handling. If you are concerned, contact the seller and ask where the bag has been for the last year. I believe this is a trusted seller.

Hey, QV2! How are you? This is a gorgeous bag and looks authentic. Just to cover all bases, request that seller provide a clear photo of the font, but this looks perfect.
