I only see one pic (which may or may not be a stock pic) and therefore the listing can't be authenticated. Post pics when your bag arrives and we will review them.

Hello,

So the bag arrived and I have to say, I am very nervous about its authenticity, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

The seller Luxurysnob on Tradesy claims that this bag is an employee bag from 2012 a "prototype" bag and that was the reason given for the missing tag (I am very skeptical about this)

The seller also claimed that the bag was "gently used". However, it seems to be brand new. Now under other circumstances this would be a pleasant surprise. However, in this instance it rubs me the wrong way.

Furthermore, the dimensions seem "off" the bag looks and feels small to me. I would also like to note that the writing looks larger then it seems to be in pictures and it is slightly embossed.
