Hi, do you think I'm being silly? I guess that's a good sign, but I just wanted to be extra careful. Someone on this thread said she bought a fake Prada bag from Saks Off 5th that was a returned item from Gilt (now owned by Saks, so Gilt customers can return items to Saks directly). I know that my Saks Off 5th store just opened yesterday (Grand Opening), so it's unlikely that they got any returns from Gilt customers. But you can never be too careful. I usually only buy designer bags directly from the boutiques, so this is completely new to me. I hope the authenticators here can help ease my mind.

Extra careful is good but it's frightening and sad to hear that you aren't even safe from fakes when you buy it from the store.
I've heard some stories about exchanges being superfakes and of course if the bag has no "flaws" they will sell it to someone else who thinks he/she gets the real deal.

The photos are indeed not hugely helpful, but from what I can see, it looks fake.

Hi, could you please authenticate this Prada Gauffre for me? Any help would be greatly appreciated. The zipper pulls are leather. Is this the case with some Gauffre bags?

Item Name: Prada Gauffre Tessuto Nero

Comments: Dear Authenticators, I purchased this bag from a newly opened Saks Off 5th Avenue. I was told by the manager that this bag was a direct transfer from their full line store. However, I'm new to both Prada and Saks Off 5th Avenue, so I just want to make sure this bag is authentic. I would truly appreciate your help! I tried to take detailed pictures, and include both indoors and outdoors pictures. Please let me know if you need anything else, as I'm not familiar with Prada (any hidden code or tag I should look for and take pictures of?).

Hello beautiful Prada authenticators! I’ve joined the Prada world – finally. Purchased my 1st Prada tote and I’m extremely excited. I have just received the bag and for peace of mind and I’m seriously hoping that its genuine. I’m in love with the colour, its amazing! I would be greatly appreciated if you could take some time to help authenticate my first Prada bag purchase. I’m so going to keep this bag forever if its genuine. I almost bought a Balenciaga but decided against it because the Prada has more structure and classic style. I borrowed my sisters SLR camera and taken as much photos as possible for you. Thank you in advance, appreciated it! :smile:

Hello ladies.
I would so greatly appreciate your help in authenticating this bag. The seller re-iterated that it is authentic; however I wouldn't purchase without you ladies having a look. Will the pics on the listing suffice or should I request others? Thanks so much in advance.
