I'm still learning from the many wise ladies of the authentication thread, but this smacks of a huge fake. And even worse, this seller sold (and received positive feedback for) a fake ostrich birkin for over 11k!! With the buyer's id's private, is there anything that can be done about this for the poor buyer's sake?

Major fake. I reported it and the fake ostrich but if you should want to in the future, there is a "Report Item" link on the right-hand side of the page toward the top and underneath "Other Item Info".

I'm still learning from the many wise ladies of the authentication thread, but this smacks of a huge fake. And even worse, this seller sold (and received positive feedback for) a fake ostrich birkin for over 11k!! I reported and sent an email to the buyer of that bag, but is there anything else that can be done for the poor buyer?

This bag could possibly be OK. She offers additional pictures, ask for them and get more of the interior, the front closing with the stamp, and of each side of the bag. No Hermes selling history, and what she has sold is low price items, except for a small Vuitton Mukarami (sp?) means you should be very cautious, and a healthy dose of skepticism never goes amiss in a situation like this. Kashmira, are you in Paris? This appears to be a French seller only.

I have received more pics:

The seller bought he bag from the Ebay seller vipconsignment in November last year (it appears to have been listed as "orange"). I think the bag was discussed by then at tPF but the old authentication thread seems to be archived...

Is it possible to say if it is authentic or not after these additional pictures?
Thanks in advance for your help!

^^Kashmira, Could you please post again the original auction link, so that other authenticators can take a look.

Her story checks out, she bought it on November 27 last year for $5800 from vipconsignment as she says, listed as orange, but I do agree it looks like Potiron.

A couple of the new pictures show stitching I am not keen about, and I still cant see the interior too well.

Also I notice that the Hermes tag she put with the bag, probably the one that came from vipconsignment, is for a bag made in 1998. It says 98 Hiver. This has me really thrown, because as far as I know, Potiron was not introduced until mid 2000's. Listing shows a 2006 or J stamp bag. Tags mean nothing but this an inconsistency.

Please wait for more opinions. I am not sure about this bag.

If you really want this bag you need to ask for more pictures. These that have been provided in the listing are inadequate to say the least...Also, he has NO feedback as a seller. I wouldn't waste too much time on this bag.
