Bottega Veneta can't be cheap? I'm looking for cheap and genuine one.

You can find some deals on ebay, but be sure to have it authenticated here before buying it. Cheap is a subjective term. You're not likely to find a recent style for less than a significant amount of money. But the vintage bags can often be found for very reasonable prices.
 
Can you please authenticate this Roma for me:

Item: Authentic BV Ferro Grey Roma
Number: MA2710110070
Seller: BV Bags
Link: http://www.malleries.com/authentic-bottega-veneta-ferro-grey-roma-nappa-umbria--i-110070-s-2710.html

Could you please authenticate this Montaigne for me:

Item Name: Authentic BV Noce Montaigne
Item Number: MAL271086358
Seller: BV Bags
Link: http://www.malleries.com/authentic-bottega-veneta-noce-montaigne-i-86358-s-2710.html

Both seem authentic to me.
 
Item Name: Brtiefcase
Seller name or ID: None
Working Link to pictures: None
Comments: I'm really weary on this one because it has no white authenticity tag (I checked, and double checked and triple checked!) and no markings on the zippers (ex. riri, lampo). Please help. Will not buy unless I get the thumbs up. Thank you in advance.
This one seems suspect...I would pass!
 
Thanks to both of you for all of your help!! But, I received the bag and it has a strong perfume scent, so it is being returned.

Are you sensitive to smell or was it really really strong? Do you think it was masking some other odor? She has relisted the bag and does not mention any odor, which imho she should.

Thanks!

I am sensitive to odors and allergic to perfume. I thought that it was very strong, but my roommate thought it wasn't actually that strong and would probably fade. She also thought that the tissue paper that came in and around the bag might have actually been the source of the smell, not the bag. I could not make that determination myself and didn't want to take the chance that the smell would not fade.

However, I told the seller that I was returning the bag because I did not love the style in person, which was true. I did not mention the scent because my roommate did not think that the scent was that bad and so I thought that the scent may have been more my problem than a general problem with the bag.
