more pics from the seller: http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=af5nyip.1ier1mx9&x=0&y=kpei0s&localeid=en_US

I won this the other day and paid after briefly checking on here and just kind of assuming its authenticity based on those pics. It arrived here quickly today and while everything checks out (I think?!, from what I've researched: little circles on zippers are welded completely shut, tag looks good, bag collapses on itself, etc), the leather isn't as silky as the last balenciaga I owned. here are more pics I took ... I have a crap camera ...

Can anyone please help me with the wallet. If it's fake which I think it is I'd want to file a complaint with ebay asap to try to get my money back. I'm a bit worried as I haven't paid with paypal. TIA

I'm not able to speak to its authenticity...Maybe someone more familiar with GH wallets can address that. The imprint to an unpracticed eye seems okay, but the leather looks very odd to me.

If the photos on ebay are the wallet that was to be sent to you, it is definitely "not as described." It is in fact a different wallet. Your seller should refund you on that alone.

Wish I could be more help....

Edit: actually, it is only the first blurry photo that seems odd. The other two seem okay, but certainly a different color than the wallet featured on ebay.

Thank you Conni! That was also my first impression that the leather doesn't look too good. It's also pretty hard and smells a little weird but I only have my bags to compare it to and am not familiar with the wallets.

It is definitely not the same wallet as in the pictures therefore I'm assuming the seller tried to scam me but I need to make sure before filing a claim. So if anybody is familar with the wallets, please have a look. TIA

HI, I HAVE SEVERAL GH WALLETS. THE FIRST PIC LOOKS TOO BLURRY TO MAKE OUT MUCH. WERE THESE THE ONLY PICS AVAILABLE? BEFORE YOU PAY, ASK HER TO SEND MUCH CLEARER PHOTOS AND OF THE INSIDE, THE WHOLE INSIDE. HOPE I CAN HELP? :crybaby:
