Authenticate This Botkier

[Murmurous]

Wanting to buy this Botkier Honore Hobo. First time buying a designer bag

Please let me know if this is authenic: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI...akeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en
And also if its worth the price (and shipping price too).
I live in Australia and it's hard to find anywhere that sells the botkier honore hobo for under $500. Does anyone know of any good online shops where they stock the black Botkier Honore Hobo (or satchel)?

So grateful for you help! Thank you

I found that Costco stocks the Botkier Honore (didn't know that until now).
http://www.costco.com/Botkier-Honore-Hobo-Bag---Black-.product.100080361.html Is it authentic?

Its significantly cheaper at costco and I was thinking of using a parcel forwarding service to australia.

Anyone have any suggestions for forwarding services? shipito.com?

Hi guys, there's a Botkier I'm thinking of bidding for on eBay but one thing has raised my suspicions. The inside nameplate is made of leather and not metal. Did Botkier ever do this? Thanks.

Hi -- It would help if you showed a link or described the style, because some Botkiers were frequently copied (like the Trigger, among others) but most weren't as popular as that style, so it's less likely that they were counterfeited.

Hello! I'm looking for a Botkier Bianca in brown. Can anyone authenticate this one? I'm a little nervous due to price and lack of feedback for the seller. Thanks for any help.

Authentic??
My first experience with Botkier. Thrift find: Botkier Bianca Medium Satchel.

Ivory (distressed) with antiqued brass colored hardware. Bronze zipper pull straps and trim (leather?). Interior lined in what seems to be soft genuine suede. Back of interior bronze leather slip pockets are a soft sueded leather. Tag inside reads MADE IN INDONESIA.
(A google and ebay search for ivory Biancas pulls up nothing.)

Forgive me please if adding photos directly to my post is taboo. It's my first PF post!! Any help would be appreciated! It's an okay bag, but I don't know if I would've paid $525 for it in 2007...
TIA
