Girls, can you tell me if each bag has different number on sillicone inside? I am asking because i saw 2 bags with the same number :-)
Some will have the same number if they were made in the same country on the same date. Are you referring to the date code tab? Also, it it is the same style, it will have the same serial number.. So yes, the same number can and will be on the same style.
 
Looks good! Love the mandarin color and the pebbly leather, congrats on finding that!
I agree with Jojo. Totally authentic and nice find! But be careful on ebay. There's a lot of fakes on there. Make sure the seller has a good track record and feedback history for selling authentics bags. Most of fakes I see are listed by sellers with low feedback scores. There are some with high FB scores with a fake sometimes, but not near as many as the 20 or less feedbacks..

Thank you! Yes, this seller actually didn't have a lot of feedback so I only took the chance because they accept returns! I really wanted this color. I've bought coach from eBay but I've bought enough to feel like I have some knowledge. I know there are a ton of MK fakes though so I wanted to be sure!
 
Thank you! Not technically an authentication question, but I just noticed there is no hang tag. I'm going to ask the seller but I missed it on the pics. Is it worth making a fuss over? I still love the bag, especially now that I know it's legit
Many MK bags don't come with the charms. If she advertised it in the listing, than yes request it. Otherwise, there is nothing you can do. They are easily obtained. I think you can even call Michael Kors and get one for free, that's providing this bag originally came with one. many do not. Also, I see them for sale on ebay all the time. Good luck!

Yes this bag does come with one. She didn't say it was missing in the listing (another seller is listing the same bag, but it's damaged and she said it was missing). Thanks for the info, I will try calling MK!

There are some unbelievably good fakes. The Michael Kors fakes are pretty obvious, but those counterfeitors got Coach down to a T! They even produce glove tanned leather which is very expensive to make. The authenticators here in the Coach forum are amazing! They really know their stuff. Plus they have some very good reference threads that I wish we had here in the Michael Kors thread. They have been faking Coach much longer than MK, so the research has been more extensive. You would be surprised on how close the fakes are with Coach. They are almost identical to the real thing. Those gals over there know every little sign and know every serial number for each bag. They really are amazing!

Maybe she didn't know it was missing? Depends how she got it. She could be selling it for a friend or something. Especially if she a new seller and not real familiar with designer bags. There are lots of them for sale on ebay and poshmark too!They even have some nicer ones with rhinestones and different designs and colors to choose from.

Greetings all I just found this site through an ebay link on authenticating Kors handbags. I am happy to be here. I wonder if I can use your expertise to tell me if this is an original Kors handbag or not? I recently purchased it but I am unfamiliar with this lining and I thought they all had metal zippers but I am not sure? The stitching appears to be uniform and straight. The handles have that issue where the piping inside moves leaving the ends to get bendy.. this happened to my authentic vintage. I would love your opinion here I will try and post some photos below. Thank you for your input.






 
I have to stop searching for bags. I may have bought three bags in the last few days. The specchio Hamilton in pearl grey with shw, the cerulean blue Miranda and now perhaps this one; the black saffiano leather Hamilton specchio with shw. I've asked for interior photo, the label inside and why the key is missing. To me it looks ok. What do you think?

Hi, i was wondering if anyone might be able to tell me if this authentic. It is the Jet set travel tote.

I'm not sure how well you can see but there is a pinkish bit showing between the block of the strap.

IMG_1449.JPG

There seems to be a staple of some kind holding together part of the strap. This is on both front straps.

The stamped logo is not straight.

The key hook does not have Michael Kors stamped on it.

Ykk zipper stamped on the side.

Leather overlaps a bit on the top of the bag.

Sorry, that bag is a total fake. That interior is commonly seen on most fakes and the front logo is all wrong and so is the inside label. Not even close. Sorry. Don't try tp sell that on ebay or you could lose your account. The seller that sold you that is lucky she got away with it. If you can return it, you really should. ebay has a new 90 day return policy, so if you got it within the last 3 months, send it back!
