what do you all think of this one?

Color and leather texture looks off to me. Petrol has more green tones to it. This is the quilted petrol MP:

Also, MJ tag is not in the usual black thread. Instead it is using the plastic loops to secure it on the bag.

I don't see anything immediately wrong with this bag. You're right, the bronze stam shows some normal wear and tear of the bronze leather. And you're smart for looking up the seller's selling history. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary there either. The only thing I noticed was that the long rectangular tag doesn't have the price on the bottom. As for the listing price, who knows? Sellers use their own discretion for setting the initial bidding price. I'd curious to see what others have to say too. :shrugs:

Thanks, thithi! The bag is actually a cute color. If it IS authentic and someone doesn't mind the wear and tear, it's not a bad price to have a Stam in their collection!

Hi Diamond lover,

I'm almost 100% sure this elise is fake. The patent leather is too "shiny" and not textured enough. If you compare it with a picture of the real MJ patent bowlers and elise, you'll see a vast difference.

From what I understand, patent elises are pretty rare, so to find one below retail value is very unlikely.

Hope that helps!

the texture on the leather looks real, but both because she is a new seller and because the pics are rather blurry, i personally wouldn't take the chance. wait for another to come around. i've seen a few black bowlers pop up recently so just be patient :flower:
