Michael Kors Authenticate this MICHAEL KORS

[CinthiaZ]

I trusted that not all designs will be sold at MK outlet especially those exclusively boutique designs

What are included in exclusive boutique designs????? Just a hint to do rechecking

We all have our opinions. Two if us are stating is is authentic and one has suspicions. So all the buyer can do is go from there. Most of us have a pretty well trained eye and have been collecting for many years.I haven't bought a fake yet, fortunately, and hope I never do. THat is why we all have these discussions and it is good. VERY helpful to all of us. More pics wouldn't hurt, especially a pic of the date code tab, I never care to reveal exactly what I am looking at, either. I usually just state what I see is correct. If counterfeiters are getting THAT close, they must know everything anyway! lol! Your concern about the photos doesn't reveal anything, other than what you stated about the price tag, although I don't see the price tag anywhere on the bag? . Just the care card.

I have never been to an MK Outlet store as there are none by me, but going by what Coach does, there will boutique items in the outlets from time to time, generally when there s a surplus or the style is discontinued , etc Also, if they would distribute them to major department stores that carry many of the boutique bags,then they surely would have them at their own outlets as well? But I don't know because I have never been to one. I am just assuming she is getting them there, she may be going to the boutiques and actually says that she is, in the listing. . . Regardless, that seller's bags are all beautiful and authentic. I would buy from that seller with no hesitation. Although, I will admit, I am a bit leary of overseas sellers and feel better buying in the USA. But that's just one of my hang ups! lol

Thanks a lot for your replies, your knowledge is astounding. :]

The difference between us is I have ever bought an excellent fake and I've seen superfake selmas which make me realized just only after few
months use of the bags.
This made me realized how scary the market is and I tried not to miss any slightest details.

If you're so confident with it then what can I say?
In the first place I just felt suspicious why the seller posted 2 different pics of the bag and some of the details aren't clear enough to judge if the bag is authentic.
Well but maybe some people have different sights and feel confident to judge by the pictures provided.

As mentioned in PM is 1st pic came with new MK dust bag (white with silver color wording) while the 4th pic came with yellow old dust bag plus there's a hang tag on it at the "right side front" of the bag (see the below pic).

I knew it's not wise to pointing out anything but since my concern doesn't show anything, it's not harm to post any pic here.

I hope now you can see where the price tag is. (Hope you won't insist that the part I circled in pic is a care card and it's even more suspicious for me if a care card is hung like a price tag as shown in the below pic) One bag posted by the seller is without price tag with new MK dust bag and another bag has yellow old MK dustbag with hang price tag.

Well it's not the final to judge by only seeing the pic I posted but I guess I won't continue anymore coz there's no point to continue when the slightest details give me a big concern while for others are not. Price tag is just one of my concern and if you think it's not necessary to think about my concern then anymore pics aren't necessary..Just forget about it and save the trouble

Opinions are merely opinions and hundreds opinions won't make the fake bag become authentic or make the authentic bag become fake

My point in suspecting and asking for more details are just not to miss out any slightest details. I never confirmed yet that the bag is fake. And I won't say it authentic as well till I see other details. But I think it won't necessary anymore

This is my opinion that if you miss out any slightest details, there will be a higher chance to be fooled by superfake bags. And I always feel better to be careful when I feel there's something suspicious.

Anyway, this will be my last here and I hope a good luck for the buyer in buying the bag

And about MK outlet, I won't give anymore hint and I trusted that people who live in US understand what I meant and it's been discussed previously too about what they sell in MK outlet and what they don't sell.

Macys, Bloomingdales, Nordstrom aren't outlets so just don't be mixed up.

Could someone help to authenticate this MK Bag:
Item: MK Large Austin Leather Hobo/Shoulder Bag
No item # or Link: Bag is on hold at a local consignment store
Comments: I found a number of Austin bags on the web, but was unable to find one in this rich chocolate brown color. The brown that I saw are in 'Luggage Brown' which appears in images to be a lighter brown. The zippers are stamped with 'Ideal' not YKK.

Thank you!

I have seen this style before and it looks to be genuine, but need to see pic of the inside label, lining and 'made in county' tab.

Thanks anyway and Good Luck

I agreed with you that more pics are always good, but you are right. I felt confident with the pics provided. Who ever said that Macy's was an outlet store?? lol! What I ASKED, NOT STATED< , is that if they send their bags to the highend department stores, SUCH AS, Macy's, Nordstroms, etc, why wouldn't they be in the outlets??They DO sell Selmas at Macy's , etc. I never said they are an outlet! lol! You are reading way too much into this and misinterpreting what I am saying, When I said there are many long time collectors on here, having great conversations, I was including YOU as well, since I thought we were having a great conversation. I just don't think the bag is fake, based on a yellow dust bag that I don't see anywhere and all the paper work looks good to me. It looked fine to Jojo as well. Jojo is a very good authenticator and has helped a lot of people on here including myself, many times. I wonder if JoJo saw any yellow dust bag?? Here is the link again. It has already been sold.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Authenti...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

I tend to go by the complete picture, not just photos, because photos are often distorted with shadows, lighting , etc. I think that the seller is a VERY GOOD clue, as to what they have listed presently and sold in the past. Many times a seller will get lazy and re use an old pic from another listing they had of the exact same style of bag that they sold in the past. I have done this myself, but the bag I was selling was totally authentic.
Also, I just don't see any difference in the dust bag from one pic to the next . And I looked really HARD, I just don't see what you are referring to?? Does anyone else?? Or am I missing something?? I see absolutely no old yellow dust bag anywhere?? It looks snow white to me.. Might be the difference in our monitors or something?

There are other sellers that post pics that they got off the internet, that don't even belong to them. Now THAT, is a really bad sign. At least these pics belong to the seller.

I agree with you that more pics would be good. I just don't agree that bag is fake. And like I said, we are all just giving opinions here. Any one of us could be wrong. Not saying what is wrong or right, just what I based my opinion on.

It's ok, I know Jojo is a good authenticator but I just commented what I think coz I found something suspicious in unusual way of authentic bag.
Not to argue in the first place but I just hope that people can see what I saw and show me why and why. Whether is my sight wrong or is the one I saw missed out or it's acceptable

It's not that I'm not trusting Jojo. I've been here too for quite sometimes and just recently inactive.

As I said that people can have their opinion but fake or authentic is absolute.
People can be wrong but it won't affect the reality of the fake or authentic bag.
Once it's fake, it never become authentic..

Please see the next post for the dust bag..
I can't comment anymore if u still unable to find out..

Probably the link provided show different link

 

[vhelya]

Is it still unclear? Hope not
I will delete this post before 2 hours

Thanks anyway and Good Luck

And by the way, you really had me curious, so I called Michael Kors and asked them if they carry the Selma bag in their outlet stores and they said that they do and that I could go to the Selma on their website and then check the store locator. She said it would come up there if it was in any outets. I searched various cites all over the USA and most of them were out of stock! lol! BUTTTT...I did find an outlet near Knoxville that carried the Selma, so apparently, the outlets DO carry Selma bags. I copied and pasted what came up so you can see. You can do this type of search on the Official Micael Kors website, , to find anyone of their bags and what stores they are in,

Let's others to give comment..
If you have time you can search in previous discussion.

I never said they don't carry selma at all but u must search what type of selma and what color do they have in outlets and in boutique..

That's all what I can say..
I can't further give explanation in this thread otherwise it will be too long and I don't expect fakers read what I posted

Sorry, but I still don't see any problem with them. If anything, it would just be lighting, but I still don't see what makes you think one is new and one is old? Or if that first one, is even a dust bag?? The first one may just be a display cloth placed under the bag, to advertise the brand?? And the one in the second, doesn't look yellow at all. It looks like a white sateen dust bag. I am trying really HARD to see the problem there, but I just don't see it. Perhaps someone else can??

Actually it was their large Selma Saffiano. It comes in Deep Pink, Red, Heather , Optic white , Black and Grape. I always thought the large Saffiano Selma was the most popular, but what do I know?? lol!

Leave your posts up please. I want to see if anyone else can see it. It might be my monitor! Although I just got this new computer last Christmas. I do have bad eyesight though, so let's see if anyone else can help.
