Item Name: Prada BN2274 Saffiano Lux Large Double-Zip Tote Black New
Listing number: 321950114806
Seller ID: wrbg
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/321950114806?_trksid=p2060353.m1431.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT[/QUOTE]

This is one of the most often faked saffiano tote styles and it is literally impossible to make any assessment from these photos. Ask the seller for photos of both sides of ALL the cards; a full frontal closeup of the triangle logo; a closeup of the interior logo; a closeup of the zipper pull tabs; a clear closeup of the lining both with and without flash; a photo of the underside of the bag; plus all the photos requested in post #1.

And even with all these photos, it might still be impossible to make a 100% assessment.
 
Hi missfiggy, please take a look. Thanks!!

From what I can see this looks authentic, however for some reason I can't get the photos on the listing to enlarge, and I can't really see minute details unless I can get the enlargements.
Thanks, missfiggy! The pictures enlarge when I'm on a desktop but not on my cell phone - which pics would you like to see enlarged? Maybe I can somehow try to copy and paste it here.

I will have to do some investigating to discover more about this "authentication" agency, but for now I can say with 100% certainty, they are totally wrong.

The bag is fake, absolutely and definitely.

This seller has 7 "Prada" for sale, all "authenticated" by Authenio.com. Of those 7, 3 are definite fakes - all saffys. So it's obvious that the superfake saffys are a real sticking point with some "authenticators". BE WARNED AND BE AWARE!!!!!

Also Authenio.com website is only available in a cached form dated 11 December. I wonder why?????

Sounds like the seller set up this website to "authenticate" their own crap and reel in their victims. Someone needs to report this to eBay. I can't bother now. You know why, Figgy. Yeah, still dancing that dance here. :girlsigh:

Perzacly what I told the seller. I just can't access the actual website, which is too weird for me.

Ebay has been advised.

Keep calm and enjoy a cold chardy (aussie slang for chardonnay).
