I watched this auction too
I have the same bag -the logos where not shown in the photos and I asked for more photo's and I got no reply. I also enlarged the photos of the cards on my TV and the cards say Bauletto which it isn't and Daino the front logo also looked funny- so I would say it was a fake

Also, if no one is familiar with this backpack or is comfortable ascertaining its authenticity, is there another forum I should check with?

If you have not received an answer it means no-one is certain enough to call it one way or the other. You can try mypoupette or caroldiva but be prepared to pay a fee.

Could someone please check out this (closed) listing:

Item: 100% AUTHENTIC PRADA BLACK NYLON CLASSIC BACKPACK BAG
Listing number: 170521543723
Seller: missmilanshop
Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170521543723#ht_4942wt_1066

I purchased this bag relying on the description and the seller's reputation. When the bag arrived yesterday, there were several things that disturbed me:
1) There is no dimension of this bag that comes close to the 15" stated in the listing
2) In the pocket there were two sets of "authenticity cards," one of which looks fake to me
3) The font/typeface of the "PRADA" on the buckles doesn't seem to match that of the other hardware
4) The zipper is a plain black one

Could someone please take a look at this and give me an opinion? I'm including some photos I took of the bag:



Many thanks!

I don't like the look of it and not just for that reason.

First page of thread tells you the format needed for postings:

Please follow the following rules:

Before you submit a request for authentication, please search this thread to make sure that the item has not previously been authenticated. This is not a thread to ask general questions about Prada.
This is a free service, but it is imperative that you help our authenticators by using the following format:
Item:
Listing number:
Seller:
Link:
Comments:
Authenticators are not required to answer every request, and it is their right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format.
Authenticators may also request additional pictures and/or information in order to assist with authentication. Please remember, it is always useful to have several close up pictures when submitting an item for authentication.

NOTE: In the absence of an auction listing (private sale situations), posters to this thread are encouraged to provide the following extra pictures, which need to be large and really sharp. It is recommended to use the macro function of the camera:

- Front view of bag
- Zipper & its end
- Hardware
- Clear picture of the interior lining
- Base of the handles
Please do not intervene to confront a troll or rudeness on the boards, just use the REPORT function ( button) to alert the mods, and let them handle it from there. In the meantime, just ignore the poster until a mod can intervene.
Always be respectful when you post and treat others as you expect to be treated. This is an open thread and everyone is welcome to participate.
Do NOT PM an authenticator or moderator to request authentication. Any and all such requests must be posted in this thread.
