Default GUCCI FANATICS! who knows gucci chain hobo's the best?

I recently purchased a LARGE gucci chain horsebit hobo on eBay and i was wondering if any of you knew if the gucci LARGE bags ever had a zip top closure? I know for sure that the medium bags have zip top, but all i have seen on the gucci website for the large ones are the fold over closure. here are some pictures of the bag. What do you guys think? Fake or Real? Please please help me

Here is the pic from gucci.com. The handles of your bag look a little too long. You might want to post this in the "authenticate this" thread. You might get more help there. Good luck!

Monogramed chain is the most replicated bag in Gucci. I would never ever buy a chain hobo anywhere else but the Gucci Boutique. Fakes are getting better by the day so its harder to spot them, to have pride and peace of mind DONT BUY anywhere unless you are walking out of the Gucci or Neimans or Saks.

I'm sorry it doesn't look authentic I can tell just by looking at the handles of your bag. It's not stiff and there shouldn't be white threading on the handle.
