Reading through and wondered what you look for when looking at the R's in the Burberry tag in a handbag? Is there something different or way it should be printed?
Is there a current list of what to look for/at to authenticate Burberry handbags?

Thanks!

Well, you know, companies have special FONTS. You know the Comic font, the old typerwiter font?

Some fonts have feet (serifs).

Some don't (san serif).

Well, Burberry has its own font, so does Kate Spade, Coach etc.

So, Burberry has a special font? Asking because I could never get a clear and up close picture on a Burberry inside tag that Addy was "looking at" for me. Thanks!

The interior tag looked good, and the back of the tag was probably an 03. But I don't think you ever posted a picture of the bag that your sister found. T

I did post some but deleted but now added them back. I am not great with photobucket. Addy did say no Red Flags but I wondered about the tag. Was away for a while and just thought about this again.
Is there a place to find about the price of any of these? Is there a special name for this handbag? Oh, does the 03 mean it was made in 2003?

I am not into a lot of purses. Have some leather Coach and liked this because it was different. Usually like the plain leather versions of any of the handbags. Did see some nice leather Burberry! :heart:
Thank you!

Can you send a photo of the inside Made in tag and a better picture of the hardware on those handles? I am going to go look at mine to compare the stitching near that zipper. T

Hi: I am worried about the CUT? Where is it cut? T

Hi, T:

Thanks for your responses. I haven't seen an Eden in my local Burberry store and this one's texture is definitely softer than all the other bags I've tried there, from tote to crossbody.

The cut is right under the handle, beside the buckle. It's a clean knife like cut.

I've already asked the seller to return it the minute I received it. I got home at 3:45pm and opened the package, took the bag out of its dust cover, saw the cut, took a few pictures, drove the kids to their 4pm music lessons, and sent the pictures with a return request to the seller at 4:30pm while waiting for the kids. He wanted pictures of box and dust cover which I sent him later at night after I got the kids settled. The seller then sent me email this afternoon, wanted me to dispute it via PayPal which I did. Apparently he doesn't want to honor his 7 days return policy.

This is my first bad ebay experience.

Thanks much and good night,

Still need a clearer pic of the front of the interior tag as well as a pic of the back of it, closer pic of zipper pull - not sure if I saw those already
