Authenticate This PRADA

[missfiggy]

Hi Miss Figgy,

Thanks for taking a look. I researched that prior to ordering, and it looks like it got censored from one idiot who came onto purse forum and spammed about them being "fake" all over the place without explaining why. I contacted Lyst (who lists their items) prior to ordering and they said their stuff is real and they only work with retailers who sell authentic items (for what this is worth).

Do you mind sharing your opinion on the bag based on the photos and not the source?

Really appreciate your help and expertise!

As I said, I'm not overly familiar with this one but I have seen them in other colorways and hardware. Based on that, nothing screams fake to me. Not sure how much this helps.

And I'll have a further look at their reputation here too. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Is your friend a Prada authenticator with over 35 years experience in Prada goods? If not then ignore them.

missfiggy, did this comment intend to authenticate it?

Not enough of the correct photos but from what I can see, it looks fake.

Not really. The problem with this style is that literally BILLIONS of them have been sold by counterfeiters over the last 30 odd years. It is the most often faked of all Prada styles. It is impossible to tell the real thing from a fake just from photos. It is also almost impossible to tell the real thing from most of the better fakes even with handling. So, unless your friend is a Prada authenticator, with the requisite experience, they will not know the difference. The only way to be sure of this style's authenticity is to have bought it yourself from a Prada boutique.

Thanks, that's what I thought from your comment, but, it sounds to me like the OP thought you authenticated it for some reason? I hope they don't sell it to some unsuspecting buyer.

Having said all that, I think this one is fake.

Hey! What do you think about this one?

Please note:

Correct format for requests is clearly set out in post #1 on page 1.
A list of the photos necessary for authentication is clearly set out in post #1 on page 1.
Posts not in correct format will be ignored.
Posts without the necessary photos will be ignored.
Please DO NOT pm me for private authentications.
I'm much more responsive when "Please" and "Thank You" are used.
Ignore those useless online Authenticity Guides - the information in them is either outdated or deliberately WRONG.
