Comments: The external Prada branding and limited photos look suspicious to me. I have asked for more photos but this is so cheap, it will go very quickly if it's real.

Comments: The seller's claim to have lost the card since posting this new ad sounds fishy to me. She insists on having a picture of a supposedly lost card in her photos allegedly to reassure buyers of authenticity. Maybe, I'm cynical or eBay wary but it has the opposite effect.

No 1 is fake.
Nos 2 & 3 photos are not large or clear enough for any assessment.
AND you can NEVER be too cynical about anything on ebay!!!!
Thank you so much Missfiggy. Glad to know my eBay cynicism is justifiable!! Lol. Have a great day x
Here are some more pics of the lining. Please let me know if you should need additional.
Thanks!

That's not the same bag that was in your first request.
Here is the first request that you're quoting. Clearly a different bag.
I can certainly see how you might think that because the colors don't look the same, but it is the same bag. (I don't have a large collection and I only have two blue bags. I am not a reseller - I only purchase for myself.)
The first pics I posted of it were of the Ebay listing, so Miss Figgy asked me to post pics of it once I got it.
After I received it, I took pics of it in my kitchen, and then you asked for more and better pics of the lining, so I took it into my closet beside a window to take pics of it with better lighting since I have seen people take pics of lining that got rejected because they weren't clear enough.
I'll take more pics of both the exterior and interior in the same lighting conditions when I get home. I don't want anyone to think I am "up to something," so I will go ahead and do that.
Thank you!

Here are the promised pics, Ms Prada Psycho.
Thank you for your help in authenticating this bag. I bought it on Ebay and would like to be able to file a claim if there is an issue.
HOLEY SHEET!!!! I really am astounded at the difference using a flash makes to the color of the bag in the photos. If the photos are of the same bag my opinion is that it is authentic.
Hi, Can you please let me know if you think this is authentic - I had asked for new pictures but not sure if they are still too small even now to see the logo and the nuances that you check. Sorry if it is, its sellers pictures, I can only ask.Item Name: Prada Saffiano Cuir Bag in Caramel

Thank you Miss Figgy!
I took all of the pics with the same camera (my phone) and almost all were actually without a flash. It is amazing how much the blue color washes out up close. Even in the same lighting the pics had substantial differences in color between the close up lining pics and the ones of the exterior.
The biggest difference was between the exterior pics of the bag in my kitchen (kind of dim over head lighting) and the lining ones in my closet (within 18" of a window). It made the lining pics look almost gray.
As always, I appreciate your help!
