The first one is a gross fake and I have just reported it to eBay. The second one looks like an authentic Fairy bag HOWEVER, I am a little skeptical about the seller's low fb, the low price and the fact that they do not accept Paypal (which means that the buyer has no protections). I noticed that he/she accepts credit cards through
their own "secure merchant account", which really would scare me, personally. If it were me, I wouldn't bid on the second bag under those conditions. It's totally up to you though.......

Hello Prada experts!

Recently I've purchased a small Prada handbag off eBay and just received the item. I didn't do my homework thouroughly when I bid and won so I am not totally convinced it's real.

Anyway, after I got it I checked on the internet as how to spot a fake Prada. Everything checked out, including the IPI zipper the bag uses. THere's only one thing that didn't check out. The site said that Prada dust bag will have PRADA 100% cotton Made in Italy. My one only has 100% Cotton, Made in Italy and no PRADA.

I haven't taken any pics of the actual bag, but I can show you the link to it. I will post my own pics when the time's convenient.

Thanks! Your opinions are much appreciated!

PS: I guess what I really wanted to ask is if correct zipper i.e IPI means authentic Prada or not necessarily?

Thanks :)

Your thoughts?

Fake card, fake bag. At least they're consistent.

This one worries me. I've seen SOOOO many fakes of this bag, good ones too, that I'm afraid to say it looks authentic, even though it does. But what worries me is the seller's history (none), the few recent purchases were electronic gizmos. Not to mention the price of both bags he's selling is RIDICULOUS! My hunch is the pics were stolen or something fishy is up, but that's only my instincts. Nothing to prove it at this point.

Bottom line: *I* wouldn't touch it!!

How do these look? The first one probably needs more picture, but not sure what pics I need. TIA!
