And, has anyone ever seen a ‘Made in Spain’ tag on the inner lining of a legitimate Saffiano Lux Double Zip Tote?

I inquired directly with a Prada boutique and Prada client services, but no one seems to be able answer either of the following: 1) whether or not either the totes or the liners are ever made in Spain, and 2) whether a legitimate Prada ever has a made in Spain tag on the liner, instead of a made in Italy tag.

thanks in advance for any thoughts on this

Prada bags and other items are made almost any where on Earth these days. I'm always surprised when one IS made in Italy.

If you want that black bag authenticated, you need to use the format. Beyond that, we don't share authenticity tips beyond what I just answered.

PS: Prada won't answer the question because they're still palming off their merchandise trying to convince customers that it's all made in Italy. Bunk!

Thank you; I can understand that.

I’ll put in the format the original listing. I’m shaking in my boots that I made a big mistake by purchasing it and relying on it having authenticity cards. I’m sure the listing likely does not have enough pictures, but I can supplement w attachments if needed.

Listing Title: Prada Saffiano Black Leather Crossbody Medium Handbag with Keyring
Seller: hottercooler
Listing Number: N/A (I can’t identify one)

Definitely have to see the lining and the inside of the bag. Can't call it with the limited photos.
 
Thank you. Please find pictures of the liner, interior placard, interior zipper, the little white tag on the pocket liner, and if helpful, the front logo also.

I really appreciate the help, very much.

This is a creative fake. It's like the illegitimate offspring of Yves Saint Laurent and Prada. It belongs in the nearest dumpster.

PS: Authentic Pradas are made in China and have been for over 10 years now, so that doesn't mean much.
