Thanks so much! [/URL]

I'm a little confused as I think this bag was deemed a fake by boxermom in post #323. Please clarify when you have a moment.
Thanks very much.

if boxermom thinks it is a fake, then i go with her call. she is much more wise in these things.

Hi Ladies, how about this one? It has the same serial number as the one in post #323. Thank you, I appreciate your thoughts.

Don't bid on this one--it's fake.

p.s. Yes, it's called accordion.

Thanks Boxermom! Looked too good to be true

i hope, it´s ok to tell this as no expert, but bag lover:
#321 vs. #335
the character of both authenticity tags (edge and texture) are very different - compare the tag character #321 with folow link:

Gotcha....so it appears that post #335 is the real deal...correct?

I believe this bag is genuine. It's not brand new but it looks to be in good condition.

IMO, yes #335 is authentic. As always, we give our best opinions based on what we see.

Please wait for one of the usual authenticators to opine on its authenticity. But it seems to me that this is not a wallet that was produced for the BV boutiques, based on the several wallets that I have bought directly from the BV boutique--some of the details are noticeably different. This might be a "made-for-outlet" wallet. That might explain the price (if it's authentic).

The authenticators might want to see a closeup of the name-imprinted area below the credit card slots.

thank you!

Regarding the Knot, I see no warning signs but I'd like to see the font on the ends of the metal knot clasp--I know it's tiny. I'm not as familiar with Knots as others so maybe someone with a Knot will weigh in on this.

The second bag is authentic.

It might be Glacier from Spring-Summer 2008. I think if it was Cobalt it would be a deeper blue. This one is very pretty. These are so hard to authenticate--no real tag except the metal disc. I think it's probably authentic--it looks well made.
