I reported the auction and emailed the seller asking if they knew they were selling counterfeit goods, this was the response:
First and far most thank you for your concern.

As far as we are concern this bag was bought from Japan Sogo department store mid this year.

We know on marc jacobs collection (US webpage) they do sell this model but only in full leather. It is common that some countries like Japan and Hong Kong has it's own special edition. Just like Gucci has it's monogram pink version but not in any other part of the world.

We hope we'd answered your question.If there is more enquires please do not hestitate to email us.

Again many thanks.

I usually ask this of any seller that is insisting their item is authentic on their auction. This is probably the nicest response I've ever received. I like that "as far as they know" it is authentic. Makes me picture them with blindfolds and their fingers in their ears while they bought it from a street vendor. "lalala! I don't know it's not fake!"

"Special edition," indeed.

The first one you should request more photos, including the closeups of the hardware and under the zipperhead. Here's an auction of another quilted cammie that has more pictures for you to compare:
eBay: 2006 MARC JACOBS BORDEAUX QUILTED CAMMIE BAG $795 NEW (item 170014755485 end time Aug-04-06 20:34:03 PDT)

The 2nd one I doubt fakes were made of this particular style, and I've seen these for cheaper on ebay in the US. Seller's other sale items and feedback look good too.
