Hi, we need much better pictures than shown in the listing :smile1::

Such as front and back of the authenticity tag and closeup of plaque;
I'd also ask what color the suede is in the attached pouch and get a good picture in good light of that suede

Hi, The pictures needed for authentication are in the first post of this thread...I copied some of the text from that post below for you :smile1::


Pictures we need for authentication requests are clear close-ups of all logos, logo plates, zippers, zipper pulls, lining, and hardware. In addition, views of sides, front, back, top, inside and bottom are needed.

Hi, rvi101 - that's too bad. I can't say "buy" or "don't buy", but without the back of the authenticity tag, you don't know exactly the color you're getting and without more pictures, you don't even know if it's authentic!

I have a personal rule: if the buyer will not provide the pictures that I need to authenticate the bag and assure myself that the condition is as described, I do not bid. I HAVE been burned a couple of times when I decided to "trust." This is not the kind of marketplace where you can examine the goods in person, so the seller needs to provide additional information where they have failed to do so in the first place. I have passed on many a "great" deal, because the seller would not provide additional pictures. My advise is that if the seller is uncooperative prior to the sale, he/she will be equally so after - especially if there is a problem. I strongly suggest that you pass. There will be another bag for you from a great seller!

first looks good, but since i am really tired right now, wait for a second opinion.

second i also believe is good, but to be sure, please ask seller for pix of both sides of the authenticity tag. per miss fancybag's post to you earlier, we really do need to see all pix to properly authenticate and appreciate when you take the time to ask the seller for them so we don't have to ask you to ask. thanks!

I sent the seller a PM last week asking them to post all the extra pics. They said they would. The auction ended the next day then they re-listed the bag again without the extra pics. I would stay away from this seller as they're hiding something.
On another note - this is the 3rd time in the past 6 months I've seen this bag up for auction.

Thanks, Northergirl, for letting us know that you've asked for pictures, too! It's a newbie seller so maybe they just don't understand how important pictures are to a potential buyer or maybe they don't care.

On a side note, in this economy, I'm not going to tell you how many times I've relisted certain things...I've lost count after I ran out of fingers! :D
