I've watched this seller for years through many different ebay ids, and I've only ever caught her selling one fake, and that was in her very early days and largely due to inexperience. Truth to tell she has no idea how to authenticate Prada either, if you judge by the text in the listing, so how she manages to sell only authentic, I would not know. But this one looks to be quite authentic. Only thing to watch out for is that many of her items are a fair bit more worn than the photos show. On this one you can see the "pleather" lining (it's not nappa leather) is starting to break down and crack in some places.

Dear missfiggy,

Thank you so much for your reply and sharing your expert advice and background info on this seller. Let me tell you that coming to PF was my last resort because I sent a few messages to her and she never responded to my questions.
When did you buy this bag? Where did you purchase this from? Her listing stated not to ask her about its authenticity, however I still wanted to find out why she didnt have the authenticity cards for both her her Prada bags thats listed. Her only reply was that she has had the bag for 3 years. I suspected that the bag is definitely more than 3 years old and she didnt buy it brand new but second hand. I have yet to receive a response from her on that.

Thanks for the heads up and noted on your points! I also realise that too about her bags (much more worn). I am not sure that I feel comfortable in considering her bags after your feedback. I will continue looking at other options! Thanks soo much :idea: missfiggy. You have been a great help!! Much much appreciated:smile:

I would really appreciate if you could give me your opinion of whether this bag is authentic. I don't think it has any cards, I have asked the seller for more photos including the zippers. However, the photos they sent were really small and they weren't clear (hence I haven't attached them).

I really appreciate your help.

Thank-you in advance

I have also found that any extra photos sent thru ebay are always way too small to be of any use. Having said that, this one looks authentic. Bear in mind that with many of the superfakes nowadays, the "Made In..." label will often read "Made in China". A ploy to establish "authenticity".

Thank-you very much Missfiggy,
Do things like the R look right? I have heard that is one of the signs, but myself I don't know what I'm looking for.
So, do the superfakes usually put Made in China labels inside, I would of thought people (like me) are extra curious when it says Made in China than if it said Italy or Bulgaria, for example.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE forget EVERYTHING you have ever heard about the "R". It has absolutely no relevance in authenticating. Some superfakes have Made in Italy, some have Made in China, some have other countries, and it takes more than the label to make any assessment on authenticity.

Missfiggy, thank-you very much for your time. I know as the bag is on ebay, you haven't seen all the photos you would of wanted. Like I said, i tried asking for more - but they were tiny.

In your opinion, from what you have seen (from the photos on ebay) I am just double checking you think it looks authentic. I know you can't guarantee it, but as I'm clueless I just want an experts opinion.

Thanks again.
