Does anyone feel like the faceplate on this is wrong? Are my eyes tricking me?

I try not to wear recognizable names because I have to travel into some very questionable areas, but I just love this style. It's perfect for me. Thank you!
This seller finally sent me additional pics and I think it is fake! Or they are mixing pics. She also acted very strange in her messages...I would stay away!

It is gone now...must have been fake. eBay is getting much better at pulling the fakes lately.

This auction has several strikes against it:
1. New seller
2. No feedback
3. $200 seller protection
4. Fishy story (was a gift, cleaning out the closet)
5. Seller used a stock photo
6. Seller's photos not clear and close enough to determine authentication

Then there is the bag itself...It looks off to me.

I would never bid on this auction no matter how much I wanted a Choo bag.

Thanks JM for trying to look at this one. The link is not working because it was pulled. I would guess for being fake. It was a Ramona bag but the inside nameplate was silver and he told me it was an earlier version and they didn't use the lilac nameplates back then. I thought it was fishy and I guess i was right.

I also think there is a hang tag in the one photo which of course is a no no.
