Hi everyone,
Looking at this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA:IT&ih=010

The blindstamp K is to the left of the craftsman's mark on this one but on the birkin that I have, the blindstamp is to the right. Does that matter?

Thanks in advance!

As previously mentioned, this seller always sells authentic items.

Yes, it is fine, as gracekelly says...
It looks like rouge H chevre.

so as you all know.. I've aquired my first kelly (with all your help) via eBay. I think I should take it in for a little spa treatment at Hermes. Lord knows I dont want to walk in there and they snub me because I got a really good fake. Now it comes from a reputable consignment shop in Manhattan (Tatiana's bu Bloomingdales), but just to be sure.... here are the pics. I'm a bit of a worry wart and just want to confirm.

^^ Nattie, nothing to worry about, it is authentic. Enjoy the bag! You are pretty young, if they look at you cross eyed, say it belongs to your mother and she gave it to you.

Thank you gracekelly. I knew there was a reason "gracekelly" was your screen name

My mother..got it! My mother DID get me the Bugaboo stroller I'll be walking in there with with my DS in tow, so I'm really not fibbing. right? lol

Thanks!

this site's so sketchy.. #1) think the price is too good to be true & the back side of the stitching looks weird. #2) these pics I have seen somewhere before.. and that price is ridiculou..

any of you pros can confirm my gut instinct?

Thanks gracekelly & pepper. Unfortunately, I was away from my computer for too long and didn't get back in time to pick it up:( I guess I'm not as sad as I thought I'd be- I really want it in 35, so I hope to get lucky again...
