i would be very careful with this one. I was watching this, but if you look at the seller's completed listings you will see that this same bag (or at least same pictures) was sold on October 16 for $1,300. Huge price difference raises a red flag for me.

Wow...you're right. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=63852&item=260170765190

I would never buy this bag without asking a ton of questions. Ask the seller if the original buyer backed out and if so why is the bag being re-listed for SO much less than it was previously listed for. If it's a different bag, again, why so cheap compared to one they just sold a few weeks ago?

Personally I think the whole thing is too risky and not worth the potential trouble. Especially with the JC sales right around the corner in a few weeks where you would be guaranteed an authentic bag. Most of this seller's bags have not sold and they have almost no feedback as a seller. Plus they don't take PayPal. All bad.... :tdown:

DO NOT BUY THIS BAG. I called the prior auction to the seller's attention and they replied that this auction is for a WALLET!! and the wrong bag is listed. Why they didnt yank this immediately, I don't know but I would not buy from this seller. Just my two cents. :tdown:

That is so bizarre! I've goofed up on some auction listings...but just little mistakes that I could easily correct. But to change it completely??? I'd stay away, too.

Although you're no doubt disappointed, the best part is that you probably saved yourself a lot of grief by posting here first before you bought the bag....lionlaw really saved the day! :tup: :flowers:

So in the end it really was too good to be true, but like Jburgh said, just wait for the sale and you'll find an authentic bag you love at a terrific price! :okay:

Thanks for the input. I went over to a friends house this morning and compared it with her's which she purchased from Saks. We saw the ribbon on top the pocket, the pocket across from the zippered one. Her's does not have that. Also where the lavender plate is at, her leather corners are slightly rounded, these are at a 90 degree angle. Very sharp corners. And lastly the leather around the top of the bag is about 1/2 wide on the ebay bag, my friends is about 1/4 inch. It's amazing what you find when you have an authentic in your lap. I appreciate you looking, I will check out the differences you noticed. Thanks!!

^^I agree with Jburgh...don't do it! Price is way too low and the leather looks bad, zippers are not right and your only protected by Paypal for $200.:tdown:
