Hi everyone,

My name is Donna and I recently made 2 purchases.

1. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/260858634064...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_8727wt_1630

- the horse head seems a little off, maybe it's just me?

2. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/260857329201...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_9099wt_1580

I did SOME research and figured, these pictures seemed REAL. I didn't have any doubts, I made these purchases on the 23rd, now I'm a little iffy.

The good part is, I can return it in 3days. I checked reviews and ppl's feedbacks, and it has been nothing but positive. I'm a first time buyer, and I hope these purchases turned out well.

What do you guys think?

Thank you in advance!

- Donna

Welcome. :)
Do not be too concerned about the button/snap being askew, the problem with these items is that the leather is substandard. That means "fake" alert. Do post pics of the tag so that we can confirm authenticity.:smile1:

In your opinion, you think the bag is fake, correct?

Man I'm getting this horrible feeling in my stomach now :(.

I would've asked for the tag, but the purses are on their way. They're being shipped from Vancouver, BC to Toronto..I should be getting the purse sometime this week.

The leather doesn't look good which is my main concern. The hardware too.

Could it be that there's no flash?

There's no Longchamp store in Toronto, but there's a store in Yorkville called Betty Hemmings. Do I need to go there to authenticate it when I receive these purses, or should I just take the pictures of the white tags for both purses and post them here?

The pics of the leather portion are already very up close and personal.
All we need are the tag pics...Its your choice where you want to have authentication done. Good luck.

Hi everyone, I purchased this light gray colored Le Pliage tote a few days ago from the Saks Fifth Off 5th. Tag says it is "made in France" but compared to my Fuschia Le Pliage from the Nordstrom sale, my Gray Pliage seems...well, cheaper quality.
Nylon is less thick and the lining feels rubbery. Also, was this gray color ever produced?

With all the talk of declining quality of luxury goods in general, it makes me wonder if the 'made in France' label is no longer an assurance of quality or if I was unlucky to get a fake from the Saks Fifth outlet.

Thanks in advance!
