Does this MK bag exist? I bought it from a reseller in my country & I thought it is pretty. I usually do my 'homework' before purchase anything online but this one was an impulse buy! I'm familiar with MK handbags because I have a few of them, but i'm a bit curious about this one. It was claimed as ' Selma Mini Bow Messenger'. The zipper, MK logo, tag etc looks authentic. If it's not.. oh well.. my mistake for not being careful.

Hmmmm...i saw this before! I was curious about the design as i never seen it in the MK website.
This one u bought online from HuXXXa, wasn't it?
 
If a seller on eBay has 100% feedback, they're likely selling authentic items. I'm sure that they would not want their hard earned feedback/transactions to be destroyed by selling counterfeit. Furthermore, if you have bought a counterfeit item, you can definitely get your money back through the resolution center and have the seller reported for selling counterfeit.

I travel a lot and I've seen that in Asian countries. It's authentic. If you go to michaelkors.com, the bottom of the page would show their other sites like China. I figured that their China website would always have the latest model and some of the bags are only posted in Asian countries. I've also seen the limited edition pyramid studded hamilton in purple color. I was told that it was only released in Asia. In US, only blue, white, pink and citrus colors were released in 2012.

Check the URL below. That design is only available in MK China. I haven't seen it in US website.

Thanks Pooja
The first two are stock photos from the MK website, so if interested have the seller post photos of the actual bag they're selling, but the last Sophie is authentic. I have a Sophie and love her, especially when the leather softened and started to slouch a little.:tender:

I'm living in Asia but never seen that design before..However, I trust it's possible that certain design may have special edition for certain countries.. But unlike the China link given by jozjh, looks like when I tried to search about mini selma bow messenger, there is no official picture posted by MK..All I found was look like fake bags.

Regardless the bag is special edition, I think to judge whether or not the bag is authentic, evaluation of the whole bags is necessary.

hi, the bag with the bow is no longer posted on site. Sorry for the confusion, I didn't mention that it's still available on site because it was an old design. Anyway, the website/URL that I provided is not bogus and the bags are not fake... it's from michaelkors.com itself...go to the bottom of the page and click China, Japan, Korea or Brazil.... notice that when you go to the country website, you'd see michaelkors.cn (China), michaelkors.jp (Japan), etc....go to www.michaelkors.com and check it out...you'd see what I mean...MK bags are made in China, Vietnam, Indonesia and some were made in Korea

.cn is the domain for China website and .jp is the domain for Japan website hence you have michaelkors.cn and michaelkors.jp...Korea is kr and br for Brazil....go to www.michaelkors.com and yes, some designs are only available in Asia

I provided the URL as example to show that there are MK bags that are only posted on michael Kors China Website, it's not available in Michael Kors US website....

Notice that it's www.michaelkors.cn (MK China website) but if you'll click "English" with US flag on top of the page, it will revert you back to michaelkors.com

Michael Kors have their official website in each country. Therefore you have .cn, .jp, kr and br....Look at the difference in their stocks

Anyway, their main page is still michaelkors.com, the site is just linked to the official website in each country. It would be easier to check in Michaelkors.com itself and click the country at the bottom of the main page

Hi everyone! I just received a bag today from a friend, I was told that it is a colour offered only in Asia, it was 300$ something and it is authenticate. But I'm not completely sure and it would be so great if someone could check it for me! Thanks!

Info: there is a strap for keys on the inside, all the metals say Michael Kors and are very shiny/new, all the stitches are very even, the inside is very neat and well made, the bag stands upright without anything inside, the plastic is what my friend put on to prevent scratching the MK sign, it comes in a cream silk bag with MK on it and with a light brown care book, my camera is really bad but the material has a neat criss cross pattern and I've confirmed it to be real leather

Please tell me if this is authenticate or just a really well made fake, thanks!:D
