Authentic bag. A little on the high side in that it does not have the lock/clochette etc. But since it is a newish bag and black box, those items would be easily obtainable. Make them an offer.

Comments: Hello nice ladies, I got this bag yesterday but now I'm having doubts about the craftsman stamp on strap, it looks weird??? Could you please give me your opinions. I don't want to be taken on a fake bag again. TIA

Not enough pix to determine authenticity. Sales tax of 7.75% in 2009 in Orange County???
gracekelly, you rock. although, i prefer the gold hardware, it seems like a much better deal than the same bag from 1990 (but $3500 in gold hardware) that you called "overpriced".
It is a better deal. Sellier bags do cost more. Gold HW is very classic, but Pall has a very modern vibe with box sellier which is a very formal looking bag. You really can't go wrong with either.
Nevermind, I just found this post:
"Re: Retourne vs. Sellier Kellys
The stitching for Retourne (souple) Kellys is on the inside; whereas with Sellier (rigide) Kellys, it is on the outside--gives it a sharper, more defined edge and a more formal look. Also makes it a bit larger in appearance; comparing a 32cm Sellier and a 32 Retourne--the Sellier almost always looks a bit bigger or boxier than the Retourne. Sellier usually renders a Kelly more expensive as well due to the extra labor involved. "

Lilmonkey, very important that you understand the difference before making a purchase. Glad you found that explanation.
I agree but I still can't see the difference in stitching between the gold hardware (retourne?) and palladium hardware (sellier?) their structure looks the same to me.

I think it looks good, but I am confused by the shot which shows part of the interior, is it lined in a different color leather? A shot of the interior would be helpful.
