Thanks ! Reebonz didnt state the name of the color.
I surveyed online looks similar to menthe color. What do u think ?

I don't think it's Menthe. Your bag has the newer style heat stamp and zipper detailing that was done after Menthe came out (unless they carried it over from a previous season, I'm not sure). I will try to have a look later and see what greens were offered since that changeover.
That being said, when it comes to BV, anything is possible :laugh:

I apologize for the limited number of pictures. This is a Nero Belly Veneta I ordered from MyHabit. I have never seen an "X" at the end of a BV serial number and I was wondering if this looks OK. I have seen similar serial numbers starting in B and ending in Y so I thought they could be going in alphabetical order.

Sorry for the late reply, I had hoped someone more knowledgeable with older BV could help you. I dont like to give opinions on older/vintage/late 90s- early 00s bags but nothing is sending up any red flags. All the usual markers seem to be consistent with authentic Bottega Veneta. :flowers:

Thank you very much for your reply and comment. Good to hear that there is no red flag ;-D

Comments: Hello BV expert ladies, wonder if this is authentic (looks kind of old but it is simple style I like). The lining is not suede like textile?. Btw, because the auction almost end when requested so I just got the bag anyway, I hope this bag is authentic. Many thanks in advance.

I can't tell how to delete my original post, but please disregard this request. I am returning the bag, so at this point the authentication is only for curiosity, and I would rather have you focus your efforts on new requests! Have a good weekend.

This bag look authentic from the pictures, however you could tell more with touching (authentic soft leather flexible), I have only around 10 BV, so I am not an expert myself, looking at this bag is appear to be authentic. Also, there is someone posted similar certificate authenticity with this bag that you probably want to check this out. Just for learning knowledge share. http://www.ebay.com/itm/8437-NEW-BO...-TOP-HANDLE-/351496257979?hash=item51d6cf41bb

Sorry for the late reply.
The photo of the heatstamp is missing (or it may be there but is so faint I can't make it out), but nothing screaming fake to me. It looks like an authentic Ebano shoulder bag in Cervo leather. It's older - maybe before 2006ish? I can't say for sure. Some bags have fabric interiors, mostly men's bags and some made for outlet bags. :flowers:

Sorry for the late reply. I've seen the new style tags with all kinds of letters as the last digit. I don't think they're in any kind of order. I wish they meant something, but they don't. Not to us, at least. :smile1:

I see it's been relisted so you're in luck if you still want this bag.
It's authentic :flowers:
Price is very subjective, but I think any new (and in good condition) Bottega under $1000 is a good buy, but that's just me.
