Authenticate This PRADA

So...where did it come from???
This was from a private seller that we bought before.

I was questioning the lining color does not match bag color. But was informed that gold lining was commonly used in Lux Tote. And I found these Lux Tote has lining which does not match bag color.

The bag is fake for sooooooo many reasons which we are not able to disclose here.
 
Hi, I just bought a Prada nylon tessuto mini and I need some help authenticating it now it has arrived. I have looked at how to tell a fake from a real. The ‘r’ looks fine and also the brand of zipper. The only thing I’m worried about is the bag does NOT have a mini white tag with a number on inside. When I asked the seller about this they told me that not all vintage Pradas come with the tag they only added this after 2004. Thanks

Authentication request format?

Authentication request format?

Ah I’m sorry my bad I rushed onto the site upon receiving my bag without properly reading.

Item name: Prada tessuto nylon mini
Listing number: (?)
Seller ID: Prada_hoe
Link: https://www.depop.com/products/prada_hoe-authentic-vintage-2000s-rare-prada-15/

Upon looking at her profile and realising she has had a lot of the same Prada bags for sale it was probably a mistake to buy it however seller is insisting it is real and I may have been fooled by her five star reviews.

Hey :) I hope you can help me authenticate my Prada Galleria in red.. I have one at home (I know this one is original because I have bought it in store myself) and it looks a little different.. the sign inside the bag is a different typing, the gold is lighter and I’m afraid I bought a fake.. I can send some more pictures of you want.. the authentication card is not filled but I‘ve read that they are usually not filled if you buy them in outlets..
So my question would be if Prada bags from outlets are different than those from store and that the differences I‘ve recognized are caused that the bag was bought in an outlet? The girl where I have bought the bag has no receipt, just the not-filled ID card..
thanks a lot!
Merle

Your pics aren't enough but I think it's fake from what I can see. Please read post #1 and supply the pics required. Also please post the link to the seller.

Thank you for your quick reply! That’s what I thought. I’m sorry I can’t post the link because it’s already gone and I bought it, so there’s no link to post anymore.
I added more pictures that were asked for in the first post, I’m really sorry that I did not post it correctly in first place.
Looking forward to your answer and thanks again!
(If you need other pics just ask (; )
