They're sneaky about where the hide them. Plus, when you see photos of the tags they give the illusion that the tag is much larger than it really is. I've spent my share of time looking for them myself!
I took everything out and didn’t see it. Really small tag, indeed, on pics looks much bigger. I have also read that prada now is made in India also and if you can not find the made in tag then it isn’t made in Italy. And I still can’t believe how I saw on YouTube a movie fake vs real prada and there the lady said if there is a stitch below button snap on both sides of the bag then the bag is fake. I can not believe how people talk ****
 
Hello again! So, the purse finally arrived. Poshmark said it was authentic, but idk how accurate their authenticates are. Below are photos. What do you think?

Name: Vela Nylon Stydded Shoulder Bag

That’s really good to hear thank you.

One major issue I had was the misalignment of the black part of the triangle and the circle at the bottom. Is it common that they are not perfectly aligned?

The misalignment of the logo plate would annoy me too, but I feel that it's just another example of Prada's woeful quality control. The bag itself looks authentic to me.

Whilst I can't feel the bag, what I can see gives me jitters. If this was delivered to me, it would have been sent back pronto
