It's sad cuz those bags probably cost barely $1 to make since they were likely made by children in sweatshops. Sad.

yeah the fakes are very obvious.. its sad how these fakes are being made so well.. nyc has tons every so often someone walks into prada with a fake and its obvious as soon as they walk in! god what is up with the world!

I'm no expert but i think this is an obvious fake. The P R A D A hardware logo on the front exterior is not even ALIGNED. Reminds me of my baby speling out words with fridge magnets.

now Selling on Ebay.

Hi! I also didn't know that Miu Miu produces in Turkey... So an authentic Miu Miu bag can (or should?) also have a "Made in Turkey" tag? It doesn't have to say "Made in Italy"? Thanks for help!!!

Hello - I have an authentic Miu Miu bow satchel and it was made in Turkey.
Some are made in Italy and some Turkey. Hope this helps!

Thanks!!! That helps a lot

Next to the "Made in Turkey" tag is another one: a little bit smaller, white and with the number 194 on it. Does this tag mean something - is it also supposed to be there? If anyone has an answer to this question... thanks in advance!

Does anyone know if some Miu Miu bags come with a grey hanging tag? I am pretty sure they dont, but some bags i see on ebay seem to have them and they look genuine (not that it is enough)

Thanks

Hi,
This bag has been already identified as fake on Authenticate This... thread.
I am thinking to report this post, however I don't have clue what is wrong.
The seller states that she sells items from legal source and is aware of consequences of posting not original items.

PLease please help - I just bought a white Miu Miu Coffer online and I think it's fake - I am devastated - does the zipper inside have to say Riri or Lampo?
Thanks so much
caro

Miu Miu do not use hangtags on their bags - they usually only have the product and care cards.... Miu Miu Boutique don't usually advertise the price of item, and I usually have to ask the SA.... (at least in Hong Kong anyway)...

In Tokyo, they will write the price on the product card.....

When there is a hangtag, it is usually from the retrail, which will say "Saks" or "NM" etc

I think the rules of 12 networks cannot use anymore..some of Miu Miu has more than 12..I just check in Miu Miu Boutique at Jakarta, Singapore and HK some has 12 braids, other has 13 braids (if you count the one inside the bolt) and the newest has 15 braids..and some bag's strap braided to the left and some braided to the right..

I just bought a white coffer on eBay. Every detail matches the authenticity details here, but the lock flap is loose. It kinda dangles when it's not locked in. Can I just tighten it with a screwdriver because it's old? Or it's a giveaway that it's a fake? Thanks!
