Hi Nina - welcome to the forum!

You need to post any queries regarding authenticity in the Authenticate this thread though.

I bought a paddy a few months ago on eBay! When i got it, i didn't think it looks right! Part of me feel it is a fake and i like to confirmed that it is! It has the whole leather ball stuffed at the handle. The padlock key hole is upside down..leather is leather but nothing like the real thing! I bought another chloe and i have to say it is authentic...tho it was a lot dearer but it is to die for! The first bag i bought now just looks hideous and i wished i looked harder and put the money towards this new one! I will post the fake bag and let you see how it looks!

thanks again!!

If you do comparison pics of your fake and your genuine bag, that would be really helpful as a reference on this thread.

Could someone tell me if Chloe bags have grommets in the bag if they are put on sale?

There's a bag I'm thinking of getting on eBay

Thanks

Thumbs up Re: Paddington Authentification Tips - Add to the List!

Thank you for your time and effort producing those tips and photos. I am brand new here and have recently become obsessed with the Paddington - and subsequent quest to spot a fake!
