thanks ladies!

amandasmithmft - Hi there - just checked the listing. I've enlarged both of the photos - and I'm sorry but I'm not getting enough out of these at all. None of the detailing is showing - she has shown there is a serial/date tag - but you can't make it out - and fakes have them too. Without additional photos - I won't authenticate. Why any seller lists an item when they are going away I have NO idea - how on earth can they expect someone to make an informed decision based on two poor photos - Would they want to make a $999 purchase based on these? OK - so its on a much lower start bid but you do really need to have more in order to make your decision.

Aimee3401 - Hi there - just checked the listing. This one looks fine from the photos provided - would be good to see the inner serial/date tag if possible as a double check.

Also, do wait for further opinion.

Thank you very much, in advance!

kawanotti - Hi there - just checked the listing. This one looks fine from the photos provided. The side buckle does look a little red - but we do see this a bit on the early 06 bags - due to there having been a change in hardware composition. Just as a check - if you could ask the seller for the other side of that circular hangtag - which will show th leather and hardware composition - it would be useful - Also if she could let you have a photo of the main plate - to check the engraving on it - and the same of the hasp plate - its best to double check all details if possible.

Thank you Lescoy, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but I'm not so great in the tech dept.,still learning how to post, I think I'll ask my 11 year old to help me!!

I can't find the style of this bag anywhere on the net and that's why I'm concerned.

nadisglad - It IS a bona fide style - This particular one originated in the UK as the Card clearly shows Cruise - which is a UK store/website, and whilst its not an authorised Chloe stockist - it does only sell authentic items.

I am almost positive this is a fake, but just wanted to double check. Thanks ladies! I figured if it is, it should probably be reported. Thanks again!

Hello, I (rather stupidly) bought this Chloe on ebay as it was buy it now for $160
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....m=130315874881

It arrived yesterday - it somehow looks fake to me. All I know is black paddingtons aren't supposed to have gold zippers and the lock is supposed to be really heavy. The bag feels quite light. I know it's my fault, so I'm not going to blame the seller! Would just like to confirm it is fake. Cheers!

Auction has ended, did you buy it? Crappy pics, TBH, and I tend to think this one is fake. In order to see more and better pics would have been necessary of the details and the paper tag info!

Yep, it's fake. And of course you can tell the seller that it's fake and that it's illegal to sell fakes. You should ask for a refund and if the seller is not willing to do so file a dispute via ebay/Paypal. You would need written expertise that this one is fake, and Caroldiva is mostly recommended, as Mypoupette is slow and sometimes unreliable in their services, as I heard. Both services charge you some fee. If you need further help in settling this please post here any time!

^ i left her feedback though - positive! how silly am i?
