Hi,
this one has ended and I noticed it too late, but I was just wondering whether this could have been a real one at that price! The photographs look good to me, but of course some details are missing, but maybe you as experts have an opinion on this one! I am just curions, I want to learn how to tell a fake one better and also I don't want to feel sorry about not having bid on it....
Thanks!

Yeah, that is funny! They are both Edith Satchels, right?
And a closer look at the pictures look like the edging issue is all over the bag.
Just looks messy to me. Sigh, I still don't like the looks of this one.

No, no! I am glad for your feedback. I honestly would be completely lost without you guys.

I work for Nordstrom and asked the seller if she would mind my taking the bag to a staff member (my friend's friend is the assistant department manager in designer handbags) and she said she had no problem at all with me doing that. So thoughts? Is that a good sign?

Sunny, Even the flap tag in the front looks wonky to me! See how crooked the stitching is? Either this is a fake or Chloe QC missed a lot.
Could be either, I suppose.

If she will return your shipping/handling + all your money without you going through tons of hoops and you trust that, then I think it is a good sign.

I explained to her that there are many levels of quality in fake bags and that this one might just be really good compared to others.

I really don't want to go through all the trouble since I'm waiting for another PP dispute to end (my item was never received) and I had filed that dispute a long, long time ago.
Hi cooper, Paypal got back to me yesterday asking for third party proof of non authenticity after nearly 3 weeks from putting the claim in. It may be that she will back down once the claim is put in so you may end up paying my poupette for nothing, i'd wait & see what happens next. Paypal will let you know if they need proof. Regards Kelly

I am going to pass on the bag. Kellykapoor, I sent her a picture of your bag and she actually said her bag is a smaller barrel Edith, which I have seen and is not the style I want. So it's back to the search again. Thank you all for being so patient with me and so helpful. I hope you don't mind that I will probably be posting more links soon!

I am glad I could help even though it was not in the way I thought I was helping.

You were totally helping KK! (Can I call you that for short?). I appreciated it tons. Can I ask what you think about another bag?

Ask away! That is what ATC is for. If I don't know the answer (very likely), there are many all-knowing baglovers here to help.
