Item Name: Authentic Bottega Veneta Flame Belly Bag
Listing number: MAL245-35794
Seller name or ID: MALLERIES: Strictly Pursonal
Working Link: http://luxury.malleries.com/authentic-bottega-veneta-flame-belly-bag-i-35794-s-245.html


Comments: Please authenticate this bag. Thank you so much.

Hi, I believe this to be an authentic FEVER (not Flame) BV. I think that the interior shot of with the blue suede is from a different bag...is that why the seller sent you another pic? :smile1:
 
Also, I just found out that this same bag with same pictures is at portero luxury.com. Are these two companies anyway affiliated? I just thought that was rather strange.

Hi, the best thing to do would be to ask the seller if they are the same person/organization if you have concerns. It is possible to have the same bag listed on eBay, Bonanza, Portero, and Malleries, though! With the current economy, some sellers try to get their goods shown in as many outlets as they can handle without going crazy! :smile1:

Malleries is in no way associated with Potero, 2 entirely seperate selling venues. Some sellers will sell on Malleries, eBay, Bonanza, Portero and their on site, same item... I'd give my money to Malleries, they are 5 star!
 
Hi!

Could someone advise on authenticity of this bag please? Many thanks in advance! :)

Item Name: Auth Bottega Veneta

The pictures show that this is an authentic medium veneta in Milk (color name). It's from the current S/S 2011 collection.

I'm guessing the detailed description was an oversight from the seller since it states mint Ebano Veneta. A couple of ladies here have bought BVs from this seller so it should be fine. But you may want to just email the seller and make sure you're getting what's shown on the photos vs. what was described on the auction.
 
Thank you TDL!!! =)

I just wanted to know if I should feel comfortable buying a BV Ball Noce handbag off of this sight Bonanza. I have never dealt with them before. He has one picture of the bag, and one that is blurry of the tag. You can go on the sight and put in BV spelled out and ball and it will be the only one.

Hi, Virginiamb. I see you are on a hunt for a noce ball bag.:D Bonanza as you know is a market place and whether a particular item is authentic or not really depends on the seller or the item in my opinion. I think I found the one your are referring to, but it would help if you could use the format in the first post of this thread so that the members can easily look into the item.

Item Name: AUTHENTIC Bottega Veneta BALL DARK NOCE VENETA
Listing number: N/A
Seller name or ID: sohohollister

Comments: I believe this is the one Virginiamb is asking about:flowers:

As you commented the seller has only two pictures and one is not clear. I would start with asking the seller to provide the pictures that are listed in, again, the first post of this thread.

Clear close-ups of
1. all logos including those on hardware and pressed into leather
2. both sides of the authenticity tag
3. views of zippers and zipper pulls
4. views of the lining
5. outside views of all sides and bottom
6. views of hardware
7. mirror, both sides if applicable

I don't have any experience with this seller, and cannot comment on this particular bag's authenticy as of now. Personally I won't feel very comfortable dealing with a seller with this little information on the item, but if I were really interested I would start a conversation with the seller.

HTH!

I would never assume a site like Bonanza carries all authentic items. As mid- said, there simply aren't enough clear photos to determine anything about this bag. The seller surely can't think a buyer for a bag at this price would be content with one decent photo and one lousy photo.

Thank you so much. I contacted and told them I would have to see more pics. I am new to purseforum and just learning about ways to post questions.

Thank you for the help. I am new to purseforum and just learning. Thanks for checking it out that is the one. I just do not feel comfortable with them. I have requested more photos but have not heard back.
