Hi Sianii11 - although seller gave some pretty good photos showing condition of bag, you still need some more photos of this bag ....
Chloe buckles, both sides, straight on and close up.
Chloe brass plate, both sides, straight on and close up.
Chloe stamp on padlock, straight on and close up.
Inner Chloe heatstamp, straight on and close up.
Engraving on key, straight on and close up.
Photo of inner handle, looking into handle.

Hopefully seller will oblige And that bag is indeed pretty whupped... but then again the seller is FLOGIT, so I guess he "flogged it"!

bags ok, very abused, you could prob clean up the inside by soaking it (by pulling the lining out and soaking in a bowel of stain remover so the leather doesnt get wet), use pen remover from leather on the outside pen mark.
the think i dont like is the sticker mark? maybe try and get a pic to see how bad that is?
if all else fails send it to lovinmybags for restoration!!

Thanks Ellie Mae and B*M*B, not sure whether i will but i figured if i could get it cheap enough it would be worth cleaning up...I'll try and get more pics...Cheers!

As for the numbers - its a date tag - so its entirely possible they could have the same numbers - all the same season, same year. The thing is - that because of this fact - I think its important that we are very careful in making a good definitive decision on this Vanilla - as it is of course possible that all of the bags could be fake -

I definitely want to hear what she says re the tags. The tag is an anomally - as its for an 06 bag - and she doesn't have one of those listed -

Hello Lescoy. Just want to report back that the seller didn't reply my last question about tags. The auction is finished and maybe she'll relist. But I don't think I'll risk it. Thanks a lot for everyone's comment on this one. I've learn a bit about paddy authentication too.

OK, I just burned an hour trying to accommodate the TPF photo format with no luck. Please try the photo bucket instead.

Thanks!!

Always watch the FINDS thread... Lescoy posted a creme baby paddy there just today. And there is also a lovely grenat loaf.

Other than that, just keep hunting on eBay, hon... and posting them here, someone will always be happy to help! For some reason, it's hard to find your FIRST one, but then the darn things just seem to fall out of the sky!

Looks like eBay have purged their Chloe items again...only 17 listed.

[bag*mad*bags]

i see 51, just reported a load!

[tireebabe]

I just search chloe paddington and it came up with 17, yesterday it was 26, about 2 weeks ago it was more that 60.
