Thank you @IntheOcean, where would be the white fabric tag be located? and are there other things I should be looking out for?

Thank you
The fabric tag with the number and the microchip is supposed to be stitched into the seam in the zipped pocket. But your bag shouldn't have one - those tags were added either in 2015 or 2016.

As for what to look for to determine authenticity - usually, fake PS bags are of substandard quality, they don't use the correct fonts, the metal parts look cheap, etc. If you've seen enough of the real deal, you'll be able to spot those fakes. But then there are some "replicas" that are really difficult to catch, you have to look at every little detail.

Hi. Yes, definitely ask the seller(s) for more pictures. Staight-up, well-let, and closeups of the logos, the hardware, under the clasp of the PS1.

I have bought it yet but found this PS1 Large at good price. could you please help see if this is authentic? Thank you so much! View attachment 6014181View attachment 6014182View attachment 6014183View attachment 6014184
Hi. I believe it's authentic, although it wouldn't hurt to see photos of the strap's hardware, the hangtag and the underside of the clasp.
It's not a Large, though. It's an Extra Large, which comes with two straps, a slip pocket in the back and a reinforced bottom. I used to have one of these :tup:

Hi, it's authentic.
Often the numbers are different on the card and fabric tag, perhaps they put in the card at the store.

Hi! I just picked up this PS1 crossbody wallet at a thrift store. It was very in expensive and I'm operating under the assumption it's fake, but it would be nice if it were real! Let me know if you need more images

To my untrained eye, it looks similar to this one: https://www.therealreal.com/product...schouler-flap-top-leather-crossbody-bag-m0roq
Hi, welcome to the Purse Forum! This looks perfectly authentic to me. @Elliespurse, do you concur?

Congrats on getting a good deal on it :smile:
