The black one looks like it could be real, but I noticed that one of the photos has a non-antiqued zipper, the brushed gold kind. The bag itself is suppose to be fall 05, but all the hardware is suppose to be antiqued. Perhaps the seller is using authentic photos to sell a fake bag. I would ask the seller to send additional photos of the actual bag to be safe. Or, skip this one all together.

The 2nd one is definitely fake.

Can anyone clue me in on what this is? I found your forum while scouring the internet trying to find info on it!

Any thoughts or info are appreciated.

One thing that has me wondering about authenticity - I mean, every zipper has his name, it feels like quality the instant you touch it ... but is "made in Indonesia" a bad sign???

THANKS PRO'S!!

Antiqued meaning the engraved Marc Jacobs is darkened/black, whereas brushed gold the engraved MJ has no hint of black, just gold. Look closely at the zipperpull photo on the most left side.
