Authenticate This! Prada or Miu Miu!

^^^As of this month, I only have to stay "private" until the last Prada I bought drops off as an active link in my feedback profile, then I can undress my feedback again. Thank goodness that diamond bracelet link has finally gone inactive!

Hi ladies,
I'vee heard horror stories about BlueFly so I wanted to see if you think this bag is real
Bluefly - Designer apparel & accessories for women - save up to 75% every day - #2055117 - Prada dark brown 'Logo Jacquard' medium handbag

Also, is it considered too much? COuld I find it for a lower price?

Thanks!!

I looked at your pics yesterday and couldn't decide. My first instinct was to say it was authentic, but in pretty sad shape. I think I'll stick with that assessment.

Can you help me with this one?? My significant other purchased it from eBay. I think it was delivered from Indonesia. Thanks in advance for your help.

^Sorry, Chi, my vote's on fake.

Jill · Oct 3rd, 2006, 02:10 PM

^ Yep-its a fake...sorry!

chidawn · Oct 3rd, 2006, 02:44 PM

No apologies necessary. Thank you so much for your expertise.

I need just a bit more advice. We just received this yesterday, and the seller has a return policy. This was paid for via Paypal with a credit card. Should I just call the credit card company? Should I contact Paypal? eBay??

I'm sure when I contact the seller, he will tell me to return the bag and wait for a refund, but I'm concerned that the refund will never be issued. Why should I trust the seller to issue the credit? He lied about the authenticity of the bag??

Plus, there were $30 in shipping charges that I am likely to be credited for if I
just contact the credit card company, which will not be refunded by the seller if he does issue the credit.

Any advice??

^^^Go to your Paypal account and follow the instructions for filing a dispute. If that goes awry, contact your credit card company.

And sorry, but that IS one baaaad fake!

Thank you Prada Psycho. I know it's in pretty bad shape. It had a an ink mark and some black smudges. I'm hoping that I can clean it up with some Apple cleaner. Even so, I love how the leather looks so smooshy, and it didn't really cost me that much.....anyways, I digress, thanks again for your help!!!

chidawn · Oct 3rd, 2006, 07:53 PM

Thanks again. I opened a dispute with Paypal. If that doesn't work, I'll handle things through the credit card company.
