I guess. Good thing it got taken down before that person could buy it that you said "ok" to...

Hi!
I bought a speedy 30 off ebay recently (which has yet to be posted to me), however I am having concerns regarding authenticity. The seller assures me that it was bought off a MPRS and was authenticated by CarolDiva, however I had an acquaintance that works at lv look over it and they said they were pretty sure it wasn't authentic (apparently the side monogram is a touch skewed and is cutting off the lv, also, the bag is apparently a couple of milimeters too short).

Here are the photos that i have of the bag (although I do not have one of the inside LV stamp)

If anyone of you lovely ladies could please give your opinion on authenticity, please help as i am stressed out over losing my money (or worse, carrying a fake!)

Thank you!

Fake- price should have been a red flag.

Yes, there was such thing produced- the Turquoise Theda Strass with Ostrich trimmings.

It looks fine to me. Was it a manager or a regular SA that authenticated the bag?

OK - I'm a little skeptical about a wallet i purchased from ebay. I did have it authenticated here....here's the link:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA:IT&ih=013

My problem is - I believe when this wallet is opened the frame is suppossed to be on the back & the wallet part in front. Meaning if the wallet clasp faces me on the right of the wallet - when I open it up it should be correct position. However - when I open this wallet with the clasp & frame closures to the right - the card inserts are upside down - KWIM?? Is this a fake???????????? I have looked at other auctions & they all appear to be this way: open wallet with clasps on righthand side - opens correctly with the LV stamp on lower lefthand side. Mine does not open this way.....when I open it this way it is upside down!!! Please help as I will have to contact the seller ASAP if its a fake........UGH

Looks OK so far. Since you haven't received it yet how do they know it's a couple of milimeters short by looking at the pictures? The cut off LV on the side (top two) is normal.
