Ok will do next time, it’s just hard to get the perfect photos for authentication. I contacted the seller about missing the card and they didn’t respond instead just accepted my return so not sure why they decided not to explain. I might have panicked though because this is my first big bag purchase and I didn’t want to wait if I was scammed so you’re right I should just check with the forums first next time haha
Definitely, no questions asked, fake, fake, fake.

Ok thanks yeah they accepted a return. Now I just have to hope they don’t try to lie and say I messed with it before sending it back. It wasn’t even packaged nicely it was just tossed in a bag in a box and with shipping probably flew around a lot and smacked into the edges.

Make sure you return it through ebays return system and use tracking and signature on delivery.

Hello everyone :smile: Hope you guys are doing well. Could you take a look at this bag? It looks quite worn in some places, but it's actually in pretty solid condition, just needs some love (if the bag's authentic, of course). The leather is buttery soft, the color is dark brown. There's no engraving on the hardware, no feet at the bottom. Can't provide the link, sorry, the seller already deleted the listing. TIA!

I have some thoughts, but want to hear from @Bratty1919 and @missfiggy first. It's an older bag, not always my forte.

My first thought was suspicion. Then I thought further. If this is an old fake then it is the superest fake of superfakes, which just didn't exist at the time. Fakes from this era were plastic, obvious and amateur.

So my final thought is that it is, as you thought, an oldie but a beauty, and authentic.

:yahoo:Thank you, Missfiggy and Praha Psycho! Much appreciated. Do you know approximately when it was made? I've been googling, but nothing came up.

Exactly my thoughts. :drinks:
 
Item Name: Black Prada handbag

Comments: It's listed on Poshmark. I had one years ago and sold it like an idiot, but want to be sure on this one. It came back today as a canceled order, they said they couldn't authenticate, but I really want another opinion. This is the third bag just like this they have kicked back as unable to authenticate, but this one sure has me fooled. I can ask for more pictures but it'll have to wait until they return the bag to the seller.

Would be grateful for the experts to weigh in. TIA.

Relax nellie!!!

This looks authentic from what I can see. Post more pics, particularly of the interior, when you receive it.

Seller's choice of background (and wtf is she wearing??) is appalling. :nuts::nuts::nuts::nuts:
