The bag you purchased is fine. I've seen this before with Japanese sellers. I have no idea what is going on. I wonder if those other listings will eventually be ended.

Thank you very much @whateve .

Please authenticate this Madison Copley style# 4414.

The photos look ok to me so I purchased it. Seller is : natsuyo_japan, she has 100% positive feedbacks.

It raised red flag for me after finding multiple listings of the identical bag from different sellers (see attached listing links). I contacted seller to inquire about one multi listing, now the listing I purchased showing “ 1 sold , 1 available “ . Is it possible to edit after a listing is sold? . Yet they still use the same photos. Also seller messaged me to let me know it will take 15 business days for her to ship out the bag, I can add more bags anytime before that.

Anyone dealt with this seller before?

Thanks.

Even odder is that the listing you bought from natsuyo_japan shows that the seller has 2 of the bags, one of which has been sold (to you).

I don’t recall saw that prior to purchase. Only noticed it a day later, I did send seller a message to inquire about the duplicate listings shortly after purchase ( at that time I only found one additional listing). She didn’t reply but then I noticed the “1 sold 1 available “ thing next day. Wondering if there is a way seller can edit a sold listing?
It doesn’t seems right to list vintage handbag as mutiples like that, no way the two bags will be exact the same after nearly 30 years of usage.
ETA:
I sent seller a second message asking why there are 4 or 5 listings featuring the same bag from different sellers. This is her reply.

Sometimes on eBay, malicious sellers mimic listings. Please be assured that your item will arrive exactly as pictured!​

That's nonsense and the seller is not being truthful. This is absolutely NOT a case of another unrelated seller stealing pictures from another!

Would you please authenticate this wallet I purchased from a friend? Its about 6.5" x 4" Thank you

Agree, especially seller herself or himself has 2 bags using the same bag photos .
Also 15 business days shipping window is unusually long.
There may be a possibility that all those sellers are trying to flip the same bag listed at other source in Japan, but that can’t explain why seller has 2 of the same bag available.

I was very strong on my bag ban until this one, guess I should stay on the ban island. Sigh.

It's authentic. I believe it is polished calfskin french purse with frame #7883 from around 2001.

I think it is okay.

Many thanks, @whateve!
