[sdnoobie]

Hey all! Would you mind giving me your opinion on this one? I'm not great at authenticating at all!!! TIA! :)

[alliemia]

that is an authentic wallet, sdnoobie

[sdnoobie]

Thank you, Alliemia!!! Much appreciated - I thought it was real but I'd rather be safe than sorry!

[lambiepie]

^^ Agreed, it's the real deal!

Hi. I missed out on the Nordies sale of the marigold print which I love. I cannot decide btwn the hazelwood or greenwood style. I found both online and I would like to know if they are authentic and if their buy it now prices are decently priced. I am not in the states so unfortunately, i have to buy everything online. I have the checkerboard exeter which I love and is a good size bag. I cant seem to find any actual pics of the hazelwood on a person. Thanks in advance!

Hi Midorichan!
Both are authentic, but the Greenwood is a bit worn on the corner.

Both are priced about $100 under retail. You might be able to find a Greenwood in better condition.

Thanks, yvalenz!

Is this bag real and how good of condition does it look? I really want this bag new, but I was told it pretty hard to find: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_500wt_1140

Based on the pictures, that's not a Mandeville it's an Alston. I'd probably ask for more pictures of the stripes, the bottom and the lining. You can't really see the condition based upon the pics there.

It's hard to tell the kind of condition it's in from the pictures. I was considering this bag since I've always wanted an alston in saddle too, but I asked that seller some very specific questions about the condition a few days ago and she never got back to me. So, I took that as a bad sign/it wasn't meant to be and now I don't intend to bid and i'm definitley not going to "buy it now" for that price. Maybe you'll be able to get through to her and she'll give you some more pics and give you answers, but I just thought I'd give you a heads up. Maybe you'll have better luck.

[midorichan]

^ I thought the buy-it-now price was ridiculous too. I will not pay that much for a used LAMB bag. I already emailed the seller for some more pics. Thanks for the head up though. I really appreciate all the help from you ladies.

This bag has been relisted a few times and has been sold before. Seller is not responsive to questions - those are two BIG red flags. I'd stay away.

Thanks for warning me, yvalenz! I'll definitely pass then. Hopefully another saddle bag sans lamb logo or stencil will pop up soon.

[yvalenz]

I'll keep an eye out for you!

While I wait impatiently for a plain saddle print bag, I decided to look for a red bag. Are these two authentic?
