Lescoy has been a diamond helping me with this but she suggested I post here to get further opinion. What do you think ladies?
Here are some extra photos, the seller has been v. helpful.

I have a few conderns with this bag, the heatstamp on the padlock looks somewhat untidy, could be the photo, then the heatstamp inside is kind of elongated but that's maybe because the seller is pulling the leather from top, I would like to know what the heatstamp would look like without pulling, and then the buckle is very shiny, but this could again be the photo... so maybe you could ask the seller again for pics?
Sorry for being so overcritical but the khaki paddies that showed up here were all superfakes and cause some headache, so I would like to see as much as possible...

Hi Brigitte,
Lescoy had her concerns too that's why she recommended I post here and get further opinion. I've emailed the seller for so many photos i'm a bit embarresed to ask for more photos. Here is another one of the heatstamp.

Im definitely not concerned with the heatstamp, I believe that if I took a pic of my 05 Choc, the heatstamp would look exactly the same way, because of the the 05 leather. The only concern that I have at the moment is of the inside of the handles!!

Ooh, Hi Saz, I thought the handles looked ok ,but you obviously can see things better than me. Can you give me a clue? I know you can't give much away on here though. But i'm just so nosey!

I thought the accent on the 'e' looked a little funny but im no expert. I know it very much depends on the leather though because my Taupe is a little unusual.

Curious about the handles if anyone want to PM me...

I wonder why they make the superfakes in Khaki? Have there been any other colours superfakes?

So is that a 'no no' then all? I'm clinging on to it still being ok, but so far it's not looking good. Thanks everyone who has helped me out. I'll save my pennies and wait until the next one.... But when?????

TIA!
Interesting, in going back through Silverado threads (trying to learn what's what), I see this seller bought this turquoise Silverado on eBay, not from the Chloe boutique as she's leading bidders to believe, and her description (with the exception of the measurements) is taken word for word from the previous seller's listing. I know Lescoy and others have authenticated the bag and she's a TPFer, but it gives me pause.

Aw hun, you'll get one don't worry. Have you been looking the the US too? There are some good deals on paddys generally. And there is a TPFer selling a choco one (I believe formally bag*mad*bags) on eBay UK so maybe you could make her an offer? Whats your budget?

Good luck!

IMO the BIN is rather expensive - there is a Reserve on the listing - but I'd certainly hope to buy for a fair bit less than the BIN.

hey there, i certainly like this bag, but im not willing to pay for the buy-it-now price though. will try my luck on bidding it. im also looking at the brown paddington as posted earlier on. but thank you thank you thank you for your priceless advice!
