A link to the listing in question is required.

It is an authenticator’s right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format. If the listing you are interested in is missing photos it is your responsibility to request them from the seller prior to posting in this thread.

Thanks and be well!
 
It's a S/S 2013 production.

Just make sure to check what you received is same as what's posted in the photos will do :smile:

I can't speak to the authenticity of this bag but TRR posts terrible pictures. You can ask for extra pics but it'll take a couple of days before they get them to you. Not sure what other identifying markers there are on the backpacks but at the very least the front and back of interior tag and the back of the zipper head will be needed. A pic of the other hardware (buckle) would help as well.
 
Aw...... thanks for those sweet encouragement....... You made my day !!!! :hugs:

Come back again if you need more help !

Can't speak to authenticity as there are photos missing but it wouldn't be 2005 with "made in italy" in upper case. That started in 2011.
Edit. I recall there were some bags in the early years where the "made in italy" was in upper case, but I don't remember the year. Can you get the required photos?
EDIT: Found it, RDC posted in 2014:
"For the record, there are inconsistencies with tag stamp capitalization. Back in 2005 F/W the Work bags had all uppercase MADE IN ITALY tags and there were some other styles that also ended up with stamps like that, like the City bag".

If you could get the back of the zipper head that would be helpful, but IMO what I see looks good. Sorry for any confusion!
