hii!
I am super excited to get my first hayden-harnett bag tomorrow and I'm already looking at ones on ebay. For all those that are way more knowledgeable than I, do they make fake HH? Or is it not well known enough to inspire knockoffs?
Also, could you experts take a look at this for me:

thanks!

It's a fair price. Brand new from the site costs $398. The cobalt Havana has been offered for less on sale, but there's no guarantee it will go on sale again. It really is a gorgeous bag!
Just a note: the first pic of the bag is the stock pic from the HH site and shows the bag wearing a luscious cobalt tassel on the right hand side. None of the other pictures show the tassel and I notice the seller removed mention of it from the (also copied from the site) description of the bag. You shouldn't assume you're getting the tassel, or should ask the seller about it. The bags are sold without them, unless specifically added to the order.
I think it's nice she's including the HH discount code. That code is a poorly kept secret here on tPF, but not all buyers know about us!

is this weird or is it just me? Why isn't there any detailing on the front pocket? Did HH make the Salina like this??

I haven't personally seen the Anthropologie version of the Salina, but audball posted a pic in Gung's HH photos thread that shows one, and it looks very much like this one.

The lining, stitching, tags and tassels all look like HH to me.

saffron, I haven't seen that lining but it's possible it's new. Why don't you post this pic in the Handbags forum (where there are also a few dedicated HH threads) and ask if anyone has seen it? There's more traffic there, and lots of folks who have visited the HH store, so might have seen the newer linings in person.
Pics showing the bag's exterior would also help in determining authenticity. People could then tell you more about it. HH bags aren't faked all that often, though there have been a handful of odd look-alikes.

Now where have I seen that bag before? Anyhoo, why not email HH and attach pictures of the bag.. I'm pretty sure they'll let you know.
