Sorry and these 2 Please Thanks Again

First one was sold on ebay last week to this seller - not enough pix to tell.

Second one has been offered in BIN for nearly 3 months now. Looks good to me but as usual, beware of bait & switch. This one looks like a case of buyers regret to me.
Cheers

Not sure...did we determine this was a fake?
See post #154 for pics sorry

Here's the thing. That style is faked a lot and your close-up pics are not that good. BUT Rosemary did say that it looked off to her... and I completely agree. I would even go so far as to say I am convinced the bag you got is fake. This is based on the inside logo, lining, look of the leather, among other small things. If you would like, maybe you can post close up of the logos, the back of the zipper, zipper pull, and close-up of hardware (avoid using flash)... that way our Prada experts can give you a more definitive answer.

where did you buy this? you MUST get your $ back ASAP. It's never OK to get duped into buying a fake. AND this bag is an obvious fake. I really think Prada is one of the most faked/copied designer brand (not the most - but definitely up there). It's scary how good some fakers get with the bags. But in your case... let's just say the a$$holes didn't even try with this bag... that's how bad it is. Name it and it's wrong. Return this piece of crap right away and do a chargeback with your CC (i'm not sure how this goes but do a search on tPF). Good luck.

No kidding! I think they got their designs and logos mixed up at the factory. Makes me wonder how many of these "prada muses" are out there.

bad fake!!

The pictures of the Prada that was posted is authentic, but when a seller has several of a similar style, bait and switch is the first thing that comes to mind. Especially when they say in their listing that they get their bags from a "supplier" or some such wording.

Hi gals, does anyone know if the Prada bags sold from Amazon.com are authentic? There are some geat prices but I am wary as I hae been taken from ebay. If it comes with an authentication card does that mean it's real? Thanks!

No, because the crooks fake the cards as well as the bags.

Amazon is equally as risky as eBay, so your best bet is to post anything from there on this thread. Ideally, shop only from reputable retailers. It costs more, but you know it's real.

Still searching for a Prada Fringe and realised it has to be black.

Why do some of clutches have that prada "metal plate" backed with a leather piece? Some are without.. like this one:
