How can 2 bags be so different, even though they're supposed to be the same bag? The first one has silver hardware & uniformed silver leather, whereas the second one has brass hardware & grained silver leather. Which one is Real?

One more bag to check out, is this Bronze Paddington Authentic?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=130238200443&ssPa geName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=003

Many thanks!

Both the silver babies are real but one is 06 season and one is late A/W 07 I think. The Argent and Or colours come in different variateions and styles

Seller has added add'l photos, but some appear to still be "stock" and those added are not very clear IMO....

Very odd with the wrong tag... so I would def. ask for more pics, also to be sure what item you are actually bidding on... close up straight on of the heatstamp inside, another one of the bottom of the bag, also of the metal plate engraving, padlock heatstamp. I know some pics of these are already in the listing, but actually you would need a whole new set, because it is not clear which photos are real and which a re stock! Adding the confusion wiht the tag you need to be extra cautious, I think. Pics in the lisiting show a real bag, but...

Thanks!

Sorry, can't comment on this one, I am no Silverado expert, and I cannot see the details in the listing very well, but I think you would need a lot more pics, please check here:

I'm no Edith expert, but I would ask for additional pics of the heatstamp inside, the zipper pull inside, also of a better pic of the heatstamp outside on the flap, of the dustbag font!

The photos you see in the auction today are SOME of the ones I requested be added "of the original bag".... per the seller. Original auction had only "stock" photos. Seller chose to POST the photos rather than email to me.
Thanks Brigitte0810!

This paddy hunt is getting depressing!
THANKS

Yes, both bags have potential, try to get addtional pics, the usual (missing) suspects! (buckle, heatstamp, metal plate, date code tag, handles, keyhole placement, etc.)
Good luck! And don't give up, sonner or later you will find your paddy, it is stressful while you are hunting, but in the end it is very rewarding!

Hi, bag could be OK, but you would need many more pics (especially as there is only 200 GBP Paypal protection!), please check here:

They are not the same bag, they are two different styles from different seasons, the later one is a more recent one. Both look good IMO!
The third one I would advise pics of the heatstamp inside, date code tag inside, inside of handles, any hangtag info and dustbag, if available, it could be OK, but one would need to see more to be sure!

Well, the seller is perfectly entitled to do so, especially if more people are interested or have asked for additional pics, that would save time and more enquiries about the bag. If you happen to know which ones were added, then you could maybe see whether the bag is OK. The pics do look good to me! In the end you'll have to decide also on your gut feeling with this seller, was he/she friendly and cooperative, do you trust them enough to go on?

Seller's response to request for additional photos was "I did the best I could with the pictures. If you are concerned about Authenticity then please don't bid as all my items are 100% Guaranteed. Please look at my feedback.", so this is all we get.

Hi all. Do these labels look OK to you guys?

Thanks so much, hardcore_harlot!

Didn't know the Argent comes in different variations & styles! Now, if they'll only lower the price...!

No problem- good luck if you go for either!

I don't have all the pictures required for a full authentication. If I can get more I will post them. But at a glance - anything glaringly stand out?

Looks ok so far but many more pics needed to be difinitive. Please try and get some more and wait for experts opinion. Also its helpful if you link to the eba auction so the ladies can see the full picture
