This is a good one! You are right, it does look just like the Desert and the Desert bag only retails for 398.00 on most sites. There is another one on ebay for only 119.00.!!Can anyone authenticate this one for me? They have it listed as a Blake, but that's not the style that comes up when I Google Kors Blake. It looks just like the Desert.
Thanks in advance.

To top it off the Blake is more in the price range she is asking but looks completely different!. Here it is at Neiman Marcus. This is what the BLAKE is supposed to look like.

I hate how much she is charging for shipping! 25.00??? You could fit this in a Priority Flat Rate Box for only 10.65 to anywhere in the United States, In just 3 days! But then again it might be because of insurance on that valoe.
She might just be off on the style name, but if that is actually a Desert bag, it is way over priced. Unless it is a complete other style.. , I don't see any others in that price range.Most of them are only 398.00 and have a signature lining. I am not familiar with the bag, so I can not say for sure, but there are too many red flags. The color of the MK care card on the bag looks correct. The style name and price for the bag don't match at all..
I would contact her and ask if she made a mistake in the style name? Also ask for better pics of the interior label and stitching around the inside zipper. That is too much money to spend to not have the right answers. She may have just screwed up the listing, but none of the Desert bags have that kind of unlined interior.
Here is one at MAYBE a Bloomingdales site, although I don't know why it says 'Rayban' , .that looks close to hers with the whip stitch handles, but again it is a Desert bag and not a Blake

TOO MANY DISCREPANCIES!! Need to contact her to see if she made a mistake on the style name. That bag is CLOSE to a Desert, yet very different. Looks nothing like a Blake! And the price range is way off for a Desert bag. Also, since it is new with tags, ask her to see a pic the tags. The style name should be right on the receipt and sometimes we can tell more from seeing the tags. Unless somebody else here knows the answers to these questions??
If it was me, I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole unless I got answers. Hopefully someone else here might recognize something about it. Good Luck!
