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.

This looks like an authentic Prada, authentic crocodile (not printed leather) Bauletto - original price would have been well in excess of US$10,000. From somewhere in the early 2000s, or possibly a little earlier. The thicker quality of the lining is indicative of an older bag also. If it's authentic crocodile, it could be affected by some CITES restrictions.

Thank you. That would be something! I definitely paid a lot less than $10,000. The only other version I’ve seen of this bag online is a Pinterest photo to an old posting that can’t be viewed anymore on The real real. It sold for $1,650 with an estimated retail of $8,000. If this is authentically that, for $450 it’s a steal and I can’t complain. Thanks for your input!

Hi! I purchased this Prada Cleo in blush pink on VC. They authentificated it, but I would like01BC7F0B-5E84-4928-82B0-D6704834DFF6.jpeg to hear your opinion as the bag does not have cards. I was very disappointed to learn that it was made in China and the plaque inside says “Prada Milano” and not “Prada made in Italy”. All my other Prada items were made in Italy, but I know that Prada manufactures some of the thing in China as well.

Comments: Hi! Thank you in advance for any help:-) I purchased this purse and was so excited because it is my first Prada! But, after looking at multiple websites and countless items in this thread (trying to find a similar purse) I started to wonder if it was actually a Prada. I am considering getting it rehabbed, which is expensive, so I don't want to do that unless I'm sure that it's real. Please, if someone has time, let me know if I made a mistake!! My fingers are crossed that I did not:-) Please let me know if you need any additional photos. Thank you for your time and help!
