Alexander McQueen Bag Thread

[Alex575]

Hi all! I just got a grey Padlock Zip Around yesterday at Holt Renfrew for Boxing Day - woohoo! Just curious if anyone can tell me what authenticity cards or certificates came with their McQueen bags? (This style and others?) I don't doubt the authenticity of this bag, but all I got is one of those small paper tabs that says "Alexander McQueen Controlled 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0". I checked my De Manta tote and same thing. Is this the norm? I thought there would be an authenticity card with serial number included wit hall the bags, or at least the more expensive ones! (Maybe this isn't considered one of the more expensive ones?) Thx!

I only got the small paper tag, too, with the numbers and another larger sized tag that had a bar code and some numbers on it with the words "Alexander McQueen" but I think that was the store's own id tag. I have the small Padlock Zip Around that I bought from Neiman Marcus a while back.

Mine was the older version of the bag where the top handles aren't hinged.

I was at Selfridges on Boxing day and there were about three lovely McQueens for over £1500 each (approx 50% off) and none of them had any serial numbers i could find...

It's the current collection. I have seen it for sale on a few online European stores. It retails for around €1800.

Thank you

I found a crazy deal it looks like. I did purchase it for less than €500

It's a really pretty bag and excited to use it

Haha, thanks! It's like US$355. I'll be going to the UK in the fall though, and I'm hopefully but not optimistic I'll score a deal like this there!

what a gorgeous number! LOVE IT!

My newest acquisition. It is exquisite! A mini Heroine made with water snake, pony hair, and leather, with a suede interior.

If you read the description without seeing the bag you wouldn't think it would work but it does, it's just wow wow wow Exquisite is the word, I could imagine Daphne Guinness owning this, so pleased a fellow tPFer is walking around rocking it .

OK, thanks guys. Whew!

Sometimes I can't understand how/why such a bag can even make it to markdown, it's soooo chic

Hi!

Sort of new here. Been lurking for a long time lol.

I got this little guy for Christmas. It's definitely love [emoji7]

You can even see half of a McQueen shoe in the background (I officially have a family[emoji39])

So I bought my last bag of the sale season, I am on a ban for this year but I bought a small pink padlock bag in sales before christmas which was in such shocking condition and such bad quality it went back. Then I grabbed a large croc embossed in Bordeaux which was only US$590 so cheaper than the other one and to replace that one (my justification for that one last bag of the sale period before I ban myself from shopping sites!!!).
I receive it today hopefully, I am hoping the bad quality of the other one I received isn't standard for AM bags because they look so beautiful in pictures. Was really disappointed with the last one especially since it had been on my wishlist on two sites for most of the year.

Its this one:
