Laura, it's not real, I hope you can get your money back.

There are 2 batches of Fall 06 Stams; early Fall Stams have item number C362020, late Fall Stams have item number C362111. I will be in MJ store this weekend, I will confirm the following info pertaining to the colors:
C362020: Black, Bronze, Camel, Ivory
C362111: Black, Cashew, Mouse, Chestnut,
I noticed the differences on Black Stams. The 1st batch of Black Stams have dark stitching and shiny (little bit of sheen) leather, the second batch has matte leather and grey stitching.

Bag Lover, you are truly amazing. Thanks so much.
I have contacted the seller, and will let you know...
You didn't respond about the lampo zipper logo. however I will try to go to the store myself this week-end. thanks so much.

Laura
 
Okay does this look fake? I htink something is a bit off about it... Bt this color is sold out everywhere else!!
Marc Jacobs Quilted Leather Large Bowler, Two Colors - marc002

I've seen this website before, my opinion is that this site sells fakes. Most of the photos shown are stock photos, so there is no guarantee that you'll receive the bag that is pictured. And the prices are way too low for a bag that is still current in season and not yet on sale.

Also, what do you all think about this one, I knoe eBay stuff can be sketchy.

This seller has been questioned before, this bowler is most definitely fake. The texture of the leather looks completely off to me. I'd stay away from this seller.
 
Okay, so still looking for the MJ Quilted 'Ursula' Bowler... I'm skeptcal of these 2 but need another opinion. Thanks =)
This one seems legit to me...

And this one seems sketchy
eBay: Women's Authentic Marc Jacobs Quilted Handbag (item 330047858051 end time Nov-15-06 08:36:57 PST)
Hmm... I'm not a patent leather expert, but this my opinion: I'd ask for additional photos of the first one, such as the back of the zipperhead and the closer shot of the leather to see texture. I don't see anything immediately wrong with the small bowler, but the add'l photos will help.

The 2nd one, the large bowler, actually looks ok to me. That pen mark may be difficult to remove if it's old and set in. The texture of the leather looks good to me, and the zipperhead is correct.
 
I don't think some of the MJ bags are real... for example, the ferrari red should have blue topstitching and the photo looks like it has red topstitching. And the pink blake has an odd shape to it.

If you already purchased the bag, I would try to cancel... if you prefer to wait until it is shipped to you, please post photos so we can check it out for you.
