Hi! I have already purchased this bag unfortunately on Poshmark. I am not familiar with designer bags or Poshmark, and the only reason I went for it was because it showed on the listing that because this item was $500 it would be authenticated by Poshmark. Little did I know, an offer was accepted below the $500 mark, and that it would now NOT be authenticated by Poshmark. So I'm feeling very uneasy and upset about this whole situation. I have researched it on my own a bit and can't figure it out. The things that worry me the most are:

1. Its low price and LARGE size
2. The fact that it does not have a 'Made in Italy' tag
3. The stitching inside I believe should be white and not black, on the inside top back red panel
4. The size of the loop holes that hold the gold hardware on the back side
5. The size of the back panel on the back most part of the bag (longer and skinnier than what I have seen)
6. The size of the front flap, seems also not as long as it should be
7. The stitching on the small leather rectangle pieces shows stitched boxes and not single stitch lines

***I am not sure if Mansur Gavriel has tiny differences in their bags over the years and this is all totally normal, or if I am just an idiot.

need a regular listing and not a you tube video
Hello! I’m sorry, I should’ve specified. It is a regular listing, she just put a video as the first image. There are images of the bag after that. Here is a close up of the tag as well.
