Hi there, I just bought a ps1 from eBay and I was wondering if you thought it appeared authentic. I’m nervous and have been scouring all kinds of images and info about these bags. I just really hope it’s authentic but I did pay with PayPal.
thanks for your help. I don’t have the bag in my possession yet, so all I have is info/pics from the listing.
Hi :smile: Wait for Elliespurse to confirm, but I'm confident it's authentic. Congrats on your PS1!

Seems to be in pretty good condition, too. This is one of the earlier PS1 models that had really beautiful black hardware. Unfortunately, that hardware's quite prone to chipping (you can see it on the back zipperpull) and so it was changed to gunmetal later on.

Hi, I agree it's authentic.
Congrats on your PS1

Hi, I love the pouch style and found the following two on ebay and vestiaire collective. I'd appreciate it if you could help authenticate these:

Item: Proenza Schouler PS1 Pouch Navy
Listing number: 224287481401
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-Proenz...481401?hash=item3438935e39:g:6SkAAOSwyoNf4BTo

Item: Proenza Schouler PS1 Pouch Lipstick
Link: https://www.vestiairecollective.com...r-ps1-proenza-schouler-handbag-11622571.shtml

Thank you!
Hi & welcome to the Purse Forum! :)
Both are authentic. The blue one is newer, though; it was made either in or sometime after Fall/Winter 2013, can't be more specific than that since the color Midnight is one of the three permanent colors, along with Black and Smoke. The red one is Fall/Winter 2012. They're basically the same, the few differences would be the lining and the font of the logo. Both bags are made of lambskin.

Thank you for authenticating and all the information! Now the hard part is deciding which one :)
 
Hi I was wondering if this is authentic? Been wanting a PS1 for a long time.

Proenza Schouler PS1 Medium Black

Hi :smile: It could be authentic, but the pictures leave a lot to be desired. We would need better pics of the logos, the hangtag, the hardware on the strap, the clasp. I don't see anything wrong in the pictures the seller did provide, though. Also, this isn't a PS1 but a PS1+. It's more structured, has a divided center compartment, different lining. Overall, the PS1+ has a more minimalistic vibe than the regular PS1.

Please note that the seller is newly registered and has zero feedback. I'm not saying it's definitely a bait-and-switch or some other scam, no. But proceed with caution. Ask for more photos of the bag, and if the seller provides them and they are of the same bag that's in the listing, then I'd say you're good to go.

Ok will look into it more. Thank you!
 
Hi! Thank you for providing such good pictures. I'd say it's authentic. Hopefully, @Elliespurse will confirm.

I think the color is Sunshine, which would make it a S/S 2013 clutch. I own a Pouch in that same color :) But it was definitely made in 2013 or earlier. Seems to be in very good condition, though!
