Hello, Experts.
Can you help me to figure out that this is authentic or not?
I got this used bag from my aunt and she said that this is real.
But I've never seen this kind of style(the way handle attached to the bag and metals on the bottom) and I didn't believe that until I saw this posting.

This looks exactly same as mine and after that, I tried to research from this site:
http://spotfakehandbags.com/bottega-veneta-serial-numbers.html
and read all those tips that you can figure out the real/fake bag.
1. riri zipper. Yes, it is indeed slanted ends at the bottom.
2. Frayed edges: yes it has frayed edges. no text is see through.
3. model number/ year/ color code seems right. ( I saw 2009 posting from this forum above, 2008 they made this as limited edition, color is called as tea color. code is right.)
Do you think this can be an authentic bag? My google search said that this model is 2008 winter/fall limited edition.
