Yes its a good price, would need to see the other side of the zip pulls on the inside and outside of the bag, the hangtag and the serial no of the bag!!

And one more...

It seems that everything looks right, but the more I analize it, the stiffer the leather looks to me. I really want it.

By that last photo it looks like an 07 blanc to me. But the other pics indicate its an 06. Perhaps they can send you some clearer pics with something showing that they have that bag in their possession?

Boy, counterfeiting is becoming an art. Sad.

Minimouse - well, I don't know about python. I have seen a couple of these IRL and haven't liked them - but I thought the 'skin' was quite dry - so wasn't sure about that. I have seen a few online which I've thought - oh that IS nice. I'm not sure I could wear it though! I'm having enough trouble trying to get my head around 'goat' leather at the moment - never mind a python skin.

You'll see something soon you love -

Fake. The photos don't show much - but the heatstamp on the small flap looks deep, and the leather just looks 'off'. As saz123 mentions - the seller sold a fake paddy a month ago - so on that alone I'd pass.

bellacherie - hi there. On the hangtag - I noticed that instead of the 'brass' this one has 50% brass, 50% zamac - so it is a new paddy - but with 06 serial tag and going with the hangtag too. When did they start with the zamac?

Hi there - this bag was asked about yesterday - I'm pasting in my response to that post.

Hi there - not good with 'skin' - photos are quite dark (at least on this monitor). I'm a little confused - as the zipper pull inside the bag doesn't appear to have 'Chloe' on it, or is it just me? Not able to see the 'Chloe' heatstamp inside the bag, or the serial tag, and I'd also have liked to see the reverse of the hangtag. I'm not convinced on this bag - but please do wait for more opinion

Additionally, another member did question the zipper pull and mentioned not having seen a zipper pull without the 'Chloe' on it. (you can check that post on page 1011, post 15158)

No problem bellacherie - I think this is the first tag I've seen with this 50% brass 50% zamac.
