Authenticate This PRADA

[elinor1002]

Hi authenticators, happy new year.

Could you tell me if this bag for sale is authentic or not? The seller originally said it was authentic, but now she's saying she's unsure and not willing to accept a return if it is found to be fake so I wanted to get as much information as possible.

Item Name: Women’s Prada Bag Shoulder Bag
Listing number: m29933706560
Seller ID: millionsmerch
Link: https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m29933706560/?iv_code=YVJKYG&object_id=m29933706560&object_type=item
Comments:

For the future, just know that on mercari you have three days to accept an item. If there’s an issue, like the item being fake . you can file a return within those days and get a return. The seller can’t not accept it, Mercari will send you a return label.

Hello Authenticators,
Hope you can help me authenticate Does prada have leather pulls with "PRADA" debossed on it? I am not hoping much for this item. I picked it from goodwill.

Thanks for the welcome. I'm sorry for my error. Here are the photos I took. Btw, i use daylight bulbs if thats a factor.

To add, it doesnt have a qa number tag and a zipper brand embossed on it. It's heavily tarnished but the original color is matte-ish gold. Some flags there.

I'm quite new to bags but i'm ok learning from my mistakes.

Consider this one a lesson learned. It's such a sad little fake. Also, since you got at at a Goodwill store, consider whatever you paid for it as a charitable tax deduction if you can't return it.

Hi! Happy New Year! I just purchased this bag from Vestiaire - it was authenticated by them but I’ve heard they are not reliable when it comes to authentication.

Is this bag actually authentic?

Thank you for your input. I really appreciate it!

Hi purse hounds! Need help authenticating a bag. I have mixed feelings about it, but want some honed eyes to take a look. Mercari had authenticated it, but I’m not sure how well they work.. I only have one other Prada, and they are not similar enough for me to know what I’m looking at here with this one. This one the interior lining is much thicker feeling than my other bag, and sounds almost like a waterproof liner on a mattress against the leather bag itself whereas my other bag is silkier feeling when ran between the fingers. Not sure if that’s right, unless it’s the difference between a hardly used bag and a used bags, or difference between styles/era. Not *every* piece of metal says Prada on it. Also, I see no “made in Italy...” fabric tag, just one that reads (LN 0394). Anyhow, would love your opinions.

Comments: Need help authenticating this bag. Is it a problem that the “made in..” fabric tag isn’t existent? There’s a LN 0394 tag instead.
