Authenticate This MCM

Did a search for an MCM bucket in black and came up with this. Looks very similar

Visetos Crossbody Bucket Bag

Thanks for looking! I appreciate you taking the time to do that. I might have to consider one if I can't find one with the 2 top handles. I prefer bags with 2 top handles for the flexibility of carrying like a shoulder bag or in the crook of my arm like a satchel.

Hello fellow MCM fans! I 've put an eye on this used bag on a vendor site... He claims it's from his deceased mother and he doesn't have any of the authenticity cards, care instructions or the dust bag... Can you please gimme your lights??

I am not authorized to give authentications but in my opinion and knowledge of MCM bags this is NOT authentic. In fact it is a poor replica.

Thank you for your time... If I may ask, what did you spot that made you conclude that?

 

[shishkabob]

So much, but the randomly placed "brass" plate, the brass plate, the engraving. The mis-alignment/placement of the logos. Look on the MCM site and compare.

I don't know about the bag you posted, but here it is on Saks Fifth Avenue site

Returning this bag from ebay ugh!! Perfect example of a counterfeit. The metal plate has fake screws, and the engraving is to thick

Another example of a counterfeit MCM. I'm unable to find this weekender style anywhere. The registration number format is wrong it s/b X1234 or 1234X this has 5 numbers. It is also missing the copyright R below the laurel leafs. The "screws" s/b flat head screws that are removable. The placement of the metal plate is haphazard, and the pattern is not centered on the the bag. The laurel wreath has nine leaves on both branches, s/b nine on the left and eight on the right. I am not an authenticator, but these are things I've noticed when shopping for MCM

Real or fake?

Real or fake?

You need better and more photos to really determine, but based on these poor photos, in my opinion, I would say fake. The quality is not there.
