Hey everyone,

Got another bag to authenticate! This time, it's my sister's. She bought it just a little over a year ago. I took one look at the inside of the bag, and thinking it was lined with cheap-looking vinyl (not to mention plastic zippers instead of metal), I took a few pictures of it and sent them to a supposed Burberry purse authenticator. She thought the bag was fake, and my sister was understandably disappointed.

So, I had dismissed it as a fake until I saw the exact same bag today on eBay, plastic zippers and all, being sold by Always Authentic Auctions. The only difference is that their bag has brown leather, while my sister's has black. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/Authentic-BURBERRYClassic-Check-BACKPACK-Rucksack-BAG_W0QQitemZ270312425971QQcmdZViewItemQQptZWomen_s_Bags?hash=item270312425971&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2|65%3A10|39%3A1|240%3A1318

I've taken a few pictures, but let me know if you need more. The only tag on the bag is on the inside, and there's no serial number or "Made in" tag as far as I can see. The dust bag it came with isn't made from the same material as my other Burberry dust bag, so I don't know if that's significant.

I know that burberry made a purple floral print because I bought the umbrella at the outlet store. I was just wondering if they made that same print into a clutch. THis clutch looks good, but not sure. So what do you think?

#1 - need pics of sewn tags

#2 - need pics of all exterior, general interior, closer pic of sewn tag and any other tags

#3 - need pics of both sides of interior tag, zipper pull, both sides of paper tag
 
Those zipper pull pics look better

Can you post ones of the hardware engraving again please - see if you can get pics like these


Hope you find this ok... not as good as my zipper pull... its really hard cuz the engraving was done in the loop hardware..its really really small but still readable...it becomes fuzzy when i zoom my camera..good thing focus is a bit tolerable... thanks a lot addy!
