No, don't be concened. Mirrors often get separated from bags. The cards that come with the bags are fairly useless and can be copied by anyone. I save my receipts but many people don't. Also, there are places where fakers will create false receipts, so that's not a foolproof method to ensure authenticity. We rely on the look of the bag and the details, such as the sewn-in white tag and other parts of the bag.

Hi,
I was wondering about this item:
http://cgi.ebay.es/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110704123037&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBUAA:ES:1123

I did not win, but the seller did send me a picture of the tag:
https://picasaweb.google.com/shejjaho/25062011#5622174616471413218

I compared to an authentic one which was nearly identical but last 4 digits difference.

I just wanted to know your opinion, because the bag was BNWT selling for little. And most important seller was on holiday but did sent me pics of this bag.

Regards,
:ty:

oops sorry for not using proper format

This bag looks authentic to me. I checked the seller's feedback and this bag was previously sold to someone who claimed it's fake and apparently returned it. Honestly, it and the other BV's from this seller that I can examine look ok, so I am guessing the previous buyer was disgruntled about something. You may want to ask the seller about the bag's history.

The listing doesn't include all the photos we need to authenticate, but what I see looks ok, no warning signs. I'm not sure which 4 digits you're referring to--the top line or the second line. There are reasons they could vary and still be authentic. It would depend on the bag you compared it to. I can't say if this is authentic without additional photos, but there aren't obvious problems with the photos shown. Hope this helps.

thanks boxermom! no wonder i thought that there was a purple undertone to it from some of the pics i googled.
Is this a beautiful color in your opinion or rather is it a pretty neutral bag?
I love the elephant and toffee and they were completely sold out. I missed out on those colors :(

Truffle isn't like Noce, IMO. It's a brown that will show a purple cast in some light--Once in awhile, I'll notice that, but it's not a Noce-type brown. It's hard to describe.

Well, I'm biased--I love my Truffle Veneta and wear it a lot with different colors. I consider it a lovely neutral, if that makes any sensel. To me it's closer to Elephant, NOT similar to Noce or Chene (supposdly the *new* Noce). It's not the deep brown like Ebano.
