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.

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.!!

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!

It looks like the Desert style to me, can you message the seller and ask her to double check the style name on the tag? It does look authentic to me and the seller has alot of other high-end authentic items for sale as well.
Jojon, did you notice the interior on the other Desert bags all have linings?? I wonder if this is even a Desert Bag? And did you notice she is asking 799.00 and a Desert bag is less than 400.00?? This is a real stumper for me! lol!

Oh, I take that back, it does retail for 799.00 I just saw another one listed New With Tags for only 399.00. Sorry. I also saw them at other stores for 398.00, but the price tag is 799.00 so she is just charging full retail.But again! This one has a lining! lol! They all seem to have a lining but hers! Weird! I wonder if it is a whole other style besides a Desert Bag?

She is calling it a Limited Edition, it may be because of the leather lining inside, which is way more pricey to do than the fabric lining. I am sure it's authentic but I would like to see the tag as well.

Well, I made an offer on it and she accepted. So, as soon as I get it in I will post pictures of the tag and the bag. If it is leather lined, then it's a much better bargain/investment than this one that I've been wanting...

Tried to post this earlier but laptop locked up..

Thank you for all the info! I've been desperately wanting this bag...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/331349969566?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I found and purchased that same style in the python and absolutely love the style. perfect size for me... not too small and not huge, also perfect drop on the handles... i don't like a bag that swings, but rather one that falls just under my arm.

Anyway, I still want the camo... but good grief! That bag, if I understand correctly, is about 7 years old and she seems to be asking way too much, in my opinion, for a pre-owned bag.

I made and offer on the deer skin bag and it was accepted. So, as soon as it comes in I will post pictures of it and the tag.

Thanks again!

Well, it's like Jojon21 pointed out, it is a Limited Edition and really does look authentic. Did you ever ask her about that style name? Oh well, it will surely be on the tag.
 
This is really suspicious. Looks totally fake to me. What do you think? Keep in mind it is NEW WITHOUT TAG for 65.00??? Plus she just sold the the same listing in her completed s! So how is it she has two of them new without tags?? For 65.00? Please tell me if I should report this and I hope you will too. Thanks

Oh wait! This gets better. She sold the first one for 65.00. Now, two days later relisted it for 95.00. Maybe she made an error in the price and talked the bidder into canceling? Does that zipper on the back of the bag look right to you??
