Hello! Kindly asking for help with this mini first keychain. I purchased from Vestiaire. Mostly seems fine to me, but since I’ve never had one of these before figured another set of eyes would be good (also the zipper is throwing me)! Thanks :)

Lmk if you need more/better photos, esp of the leather tag - I found it particularly difficult to capture well!

Looks fine to me, have to admit I've never seen the back of a zipper head on these so can't comment on that, but the rest looks good so I'm assuming it's OK too. @ksuromax , @peacebabe @Conni618 , have you ever seen the zipper head on the mini minis?

I just checked mine and it has the same zipper as the one shown above. I had never noticed. I agree that it's likely they had to switch brands for the tiny specialty zipper.
 
Could I have an opinion on this City

Comments..I did ask for more photos but says she cant add without deleting some already uploaded...not sure if there is enough for you to authenticate
It would be nice to see the rivet and the bale, what I see looks OK, fairly faded S/S 06 emerald.
 
thank you...thought it might be a bit faded...may I ask what leather for interest sake.
Chevre. Some of the 06 bags were known for fading, according to @CeeJay Bal changed their leather source in S/S 06 and people were so unhappy with it that they switched again in F/W to a different supplier. Or back to the original one, I'm not clear on that. I don't know if ALL S/S 06 bags had "bad" leather or if it was more of a fading problem, or both.

The photos really arent great enough for me to make a decision on it condition wise. I will think about it.
