I saw that one Brennamom, and didn't quite know what to make of it. No huge alarm bells for me but I'm certainly not an expert like others here... I just haven't seen BV weaving with different colours used in quite this way before (rather than the complete different coloured woven strips with those recent multicoloured Cabats). Hopefully someone else will know if this is legit.

^I don`t think BV ever made a woven wallet in that color combination (even the strips themselves are multi-colored!) and the interior seems oddly stiff.

Plus, box and care cards are off.

I`d stay away from that thing!

Thank you both! I wasn't sure either, but the colors caught me (I like shiny objects too :p)...

Hi Claus - long time no see!

^At first, I thought the first pic looked off, but then again, the pic of the tag and interior look okay to me.

I agree with C_24 - that first picture scares me but the others do look okay. After my recent fiasco-bag experience, however, coupled with the fact there have been a lot of fake Sloanes on eBay recently, I would definitely ask the seller for a few more pictures of the bag (and especially the tag) from different angles to be 100% sure they actually have the bag in the good pictures and are not just using pictures of a real bag they got from somewhere else...

And good luck that it does turn out to be authentic because it would be a great find if it is!

jburgh ..hi, from what I know the orange tote is authentic..I have followed this seller's things for years and have actually sold her some of my own..As far as the yellow handbag and wallet.. I am not quite sure because I am not familiar with this color from 2007, and style of the handbag..But then on the other hand she is selling this bag also in sienna..the tags look real and the info makes sense. and it also appears that all of her other items for sale are authentic. what I would do if I were you is take this info and make a phone call to any of the BV boutiques tomorrow where they could identify these items...that's my 2 cents.. I hope that I have helped you
