You've posted many, many bags here and so I am a bit puzzled that you do not know which pictures to ask for, especially since they are listed in the first post.

But frankly, you've had multiple opinions. And it has nothing to do with what anyone here wants. You are the buyer. It's up to you to do your research and make a sound, informed decision.

Bomb, just to make sure you understand : I am not telling the bag on the listing is fake. Neither am I telling the picture you posted is from a fake bag. I lean to authentic for both actually.
But there are ACTUALLY pictures of 2 different bags. That is a fact . Not an opinion.

An opinion is : I would not trust a seller who shows pictures of two different bags to sell me something. And I extend this opinion to a question : How can I be sure the selller will send bag 1 , bag 2 , or even another bag afterall ??

So now,

Here is the picture you posted

And here is the picture from the listing :

Inspect closely, the print, the grains ( you can count them and comprare one by one), the stitches....

Convinced, now ?

Dear Bomb

I think you have been given very thorough advice here by perlerare, amongst others, regarding this Birkin. It is only you who can decide how to proceed from now on additional pictures are not required. However you must feel 100% confident in this transaction and can you sure you will not worry and question the authenticity of the Birkin once it is in your possession? And should there be any type of problem with the transaction would this seller resolve it in a calm responsible manner?

If you do this you will see the differences between the two different Birkins. Flash photography does not change the clarity of the Hermes Paris Made in France embossing, the grain of the leather or the number of stitches above the word Hermes!

I think case closed?

And how do you think this will happen, bomb? Hermes stores WILL NOT authenticate for you. They will not tell you if a bag is fake or not. They will not supply you with proof one way or another. Your seller will not have to refund because you will not be able to provide any proof from "any authorized Hermes store all over the world."
