People have been VERY helpful to you in your numerous threads. Follow their advice, use the search function, etc. For authentication here, read the info and follow the format required. That's how you can get help.

A number of people in your many threads posted links and gave info to help you out. You responded with rudeness and impatience (just like here). If you are new to the forum, it is very important to take the time to read and get to know the forum before posting. Learn the rules. Do searches as the mods asked (and showed you how) to do. A lot of information is already here if you take the time to read what is available. Again on the authentication threads, each thread has rules on how to post, read those rules before you post and you'll get your answers. The mods asked you to be patient and tone down the rudeness. You'll get along a lot better here if you heed that advice!

Just been through your other threads and I do realize that it is some times difficult to navigate through forums. Hence I wanted to tell you there are umpteen no threads on websites containg word moda in there url. My experience says they are all fake and belong to same person. How so ever alluring there guarantees be I do not buy from them and forbid my friends to do so too.
now viz a viz Authentichandbags.com any reputed reseller of such bags is always putting in tons of photos to verify the authenticity of their bags even bluefly has that. Those who dont will either be authorized dealers or will be selling fake. Now this website is not an authorised dealer hence to me they sell fakes.

Hi Prada experts, I have a general question please and thank you

I am new to the whole designer bags scene :)

Quickly being seduced by the ever lasting style and quality of these fine products.

However, my eyes are not trained yet to spot the real from the fake.

I have a question about prada bags in general. I read some note on how to authenticate Prada bags and the article talks about how the exterior triangle logo and the interior rectangular logos should match the colour of the bag.

It is always the case, black bag will have black logos and white bags white logos etc.?

Has there ever been any prada bags with the triagle logos that is a different color from the color of the bag? I.E. Tan bag and black logo?

Please comment. Thank you all for your help.

Best,

I am but a Prada newbie, but I believe their new BYOBags have some strange colors. There's a yellow bag with a ship on it, but the Prada logo is blue, to match two wavy lines on the bottom. But I don't know if that counts, since the blue was represented somewhere on the bag..

PP - sermon time??


Every different Prada handbag style has it's own set of unique hallmarks which identify it as authentic or not.

Experience is the best teacher.

And we don't discuss the hallmarks on this thread because we don't want give any hints which might improve the counterfeit product.

It appears that "Fakeophobia" and paranoia are setting in!! Bluefly sells authentic. They are a sponsor of this site.

It's only natural if you're paying so much, right?
Just because they are a sponsor does not make their goods authentic. If anything, it should make you more skeptical. I've heard that some of their goods are and some of their goods aren't authentic, which is why I'm asking about that specific bag.

That particular style is nowhere to be found in America. How would one go about verifying the authenticity?

The bag is 100% authentic. Bluefly sells authentic. Re verifying the authenticity - Prada stores do not authenticate. You could pay someone like CarolDiva or similar (I'm not sure that Carol is still doing Prada though).

However if you're still doubtful, send it back, get your refund and purchase direct from a Prada outlet.
