Sorry that this happened to you. Thank you for ending your auction. To my knowledge, there was never a black quilted Venetia made with silver hardware and beige suede interior. And yes, pointed riri zipperheads are not authentic riri zippers, these pointed zipperheads are made by fake manufacturers because the authentic riri company is very selective with who they contract with. My suggestion is to contact the store you bought this from and arrange for a return. If needed, tell them that the bag is fake, and that it has been authenticated. You can also suggest in the email that you will report them to the local police for selling fake handbags as it is a federal offense. You can start a new thread in the main MJ forum to continue updating us. Good luck to you, and let us know how it works out.
