Item: Mansur Gavriel bucket bag
Listing Number: 181828702682
Seller: weave9804
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mansur-gavriel-bucket-purse-/181828702682
Comments: Please authenticate this bag. The pictures are blurry, but I should have it in hand by Monday to post more pictures. It was an impulse (motivated by the low price) buy... I honestly didn't think I would win with my low bid. That also makes me think it's obviously fake to others. Thanks for any assistance.

Is this ok? When I first received the at I was certain it was a knockoff. But now I'm not so sure. Maybe the seller takes poor care of her handbags. In lousy condition. Dirty, inside out & crumbs even inside. Are these bags really hard to keep up? The seller (through emails) mentioned she doesn't use purses often, but this looks well used. Also, it came without the detachable wallet. Apparently the bag was a gift from her mother & she wasn't aware of the missing wallet. Thanks, again, for any help.

I would like confirmation from JetSetGo! first, but I think it looks good. You could certainly clean it up-check out the maintenance thread. It would need a good conditioning, but I think it would turn out pretty well. You could touch up the corners with black polish too.

Ok. Thanks for the suggestion. I don't know if the condition of the bag was visible in my pictures, but do you think that's a good price? $260

That is quite the deal, if it is 100% authentic. I think it will look fine, as the vegetable tanned leather is a little "rough around the edges" to begin with. It just needs plenty of TLC.

Thank you ladies, I really appreciate it! View attachment 3116496View attachment 3116501View attachment 3116502

Can you also take a look @ these pics? All seem normal??? I read the length was 12.25 in (I don't know if I measured correctly) & that doesn't match the bag I have.

All looks good to me - honestly MG's dimensions are quoted differently depending on where you're looking, so I wouldn't be too concerned unless you think the bag is a totally different size than the one that's being advertised.
