Hi - can you authenticate this Prada please. The last two pics are of the lining of the bag (bag is turned inside out). The back of the zipper reads LAMPO. I don't have authenticity card or dust cover.

So very, very fake.

I was wondering if you ladies/gentelmen know how to deal with ebay. The bag is fake, which Prada Psycho confirmed, and after further reaserch I have absolutely no doubt about. I sent clear comparision to ebay - showed pictures of the bag i received and what authentic bags look like, and explanation why it's fake. Turns out that ebay accepts only proof from: - law enforcement or manufacturer/retail stores. (Credible 3rd party experts for cross boarded trade only).
I know prada wont provide this kind of proof. Is my only option left to go to the police and file police report against the seller? She won't accept the return, and still claims the item is real, although she confirmed she's not the original owner.

File a dispute/claim with your credit card company. Assuming you paid with a credit card.
PS: Keep an eye on the closed listing. It should disappear in the next few days, which will make getting a refund much easier.
PPS: Who told you that eBay only accepts proof from those sources? None of them would have a clue what a fake bag looks like, except Prada (the headquarters) in Milan in this case. Authentication is something done only by expert authenticators.

Thank you for getting back to me. I received an email from ebay last night stating that the case is on hold, and i have 5 days to provide them with proof why i believe the bag is fake, and they only accept proof from the sources i mentioned (law enforcement or manufacturer/retailer). But i called ebay this morning, and after the representative checked the case, she closed it in my favor, and issued a return label. So now i have to return the item to the seller and i should get my money back when they receive it. I just hope she wont relist it. Now, after a little research, i see how very fake that bag is. Thank you again for your help.
