waterfalls,
fake. This seller has been trying to pawn off this fake cognac several times, and is now covering up the leather serial tag numbers with a "watermark" to obscure the font for identification. Note that the zucca lining is all wrong, so even without the serial tags, it's still an obvious fake.

2) I don't think the bag is lined in the striped denim fabric (but I'm not 100% on this one).

So I'm leaning towards fake, especially since the price is so close to the retail. I would just go ahead and get it from an authorized retailer since I'm pretty sure it's not sold out yet.

Has anyone bought from www.finestdesigners.com? There is a bag on there that i want, but their prices seem low.

Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

No, it was probably part of the "Google Ads" which is not endorsed by The Purse Forum (tpf), but must be included on the page in order for tpf to be hosted on its servers. FYI, most of the links in "Google Ads" points to fake handbag sellers.

therese,
at first glance, it looks pretty good, but we need additional pics to make a more solid determination.
Close-ups of the hardware that connects the chains to the leather handles, the hologram serial tag, the leather serial tag, the FF metal tabs going through the buckles, and the lining material would help.
