hi all

I was going to get a NERO INTRECCIATO EFFILOCHE LIGHT CALF LARGE VENETA (http://www.bottegaveneta.com/defaul...ory":"/shop-products/Womens/designer-handbags"}}}) and saw this item on Bluefly with 20% off (http://www.bluefly.com/Bottega-Vene...anvas-fringe-hobo/SEARCH/314071901/detail.fly). Can someone help me with two questions?

1) If they are the same model (No worry on the color since I was going to get a black one from official store as well)

2) If the one on Bluefly is authentic?

Many thanks!!!!!!!!!

From the information given, they are the same model. Bluefly sells authentic BV.

The seller of this ^ bag mentions in the listing that there is no tag inside the bag. Does that sound right?

1) I saw the listing and your additional photos. I'd be very cautious about this one, because the details in the photos do not match what's advertised in the listing.

2) I have no idea. Unless this is a very vintage bag, there should be tag somewhere.

3) I have never actually seen one of these in person, but it looks okay to me. Someone else might give you a more definite opinion.

Hi, I agree with blueiris:

1. Auction details, interior and exterior pics don't match. Maybe the seller got her interior pictures mixed up from another bag?

2. Does not look authentic in my opinion.

3. Looks authentic in my opinion :smile1:

I agree with Blue Iris. On the first bag, the tag code doesn't match the color of the bag--I'm stumped, because the bag itself doesn't scream *fake*. If it were me I'd stay away from it, just to take no chances.

Second listing makes me sad--someone has apparently donated a bag that looks fake (in my opinion) to a charity. Don't bid.

Third listing is authentic.

I really appreciate all of the opinions ladies^! I thought the tag on the first one had the wrong color code. I even asked the seller to make sure it was a black bag, and she assured me it was. I'll pass on it as you all recommended. Thanks for your invaluable help:smile1:

Please see post #1 for the types of photos that are typically needed to form an opinion (tag, brand stamp, etc.). From what I see, there is something about it that doesn't seem quite right about it, but the photos would help.

I understand authenticity tag is required but this is all the pictures i've received. However, I really appreciate your opinion anyway. I also have a weird feeling about it.
