Hi all,
I purchased this Prada bag from BRAND OFF HONG KONG on eBay which I thought was a reputable seller. However, I am pretty sure the bag I received is fake.
Item Name: Auth Prada Calfskin Leather Tote Bag Handbag Dark Brown Free Shipping
Listing number:322063026776
Seller ID: brandoff_hk

I opened a case with eBay but the seller denies this bag is fake, saying their experts confirm it is authentic. However, I am convinced this is a fake bag. From the moment I opened the package, I thought the leather looked plastic and had a plastic smell. Then I inspected the details and found:
-Uneven stitching along the top
-Uneven stitching around the Prada tag inside the bag
-The PRADA font outside the bag is crooked!
-There is no logo on the underside of all the zippers
ON TOP OF THAT, I found the exact same styled bag sold on Yoogi's closet. It is the BN1181. The one on Yoogi's closet is authentic and has different detailing:
-Zipper pull is different
-Leather looks different
-Inside Prada plate looks different

I would like to see what an expert here thinks. I am appalled that such a big, reputable company that claims to sell only authentic and is part of an anti-counterfeit alliance is selling fake bags on eBay. It was also an international purchase for me so now I'm worried I'll have a tough time returning it.
