Chanel Caviar Classic Flap

[yeuxhonnetes]

this would be my first ever Chanel bag, and I'm absolutely in love with it, but i just wanted to know what the Chanel die-hards think:

also, i don't know if it's just the lighting in the pictures, but do you think it's the same color as the Chanel bag in Clanalois' collection:

i'm hoping the bag is real, because i'm absolutely in love with it

and i posted this in the Seller Watch too, by the way

The style of bag is the same as Clanalois' but the color of the eBay pic looks yellow and I don't recall the Classic Caviars available in yellow.

BUT!

I know that the in-store Chanel boutiques (the one's inside Saks or Neiman's or Bergdorf) sometimes get different colors than the free-standing Chanel Stores....so, it's possible.

Um, I know NM doesn't have that color in caviar because I asked my SA about it last week

I think it's the lighting that is throwing us off-however ask for more pics--this seller also has has a black version of the same bag for sale.

I like it, but actually much prefer lambskin, which I think looks richer and more supple.

I can't see anything that screams "Fake!" but I can't see enough detail to be 100%, either - sorry!

The only thing I'm not mad about is the way two of the photos, the ones showing the inside of the top flap, are blurred - I can't make out if the screws on the inside of the catch are Philip's screws (crossed shape groove) or flat - they should be flat, if they're Philip's according to Burberry_princess's guide it's a fake.

More photos maybe, and a pic of the press-stud on the bag's body, should help?

does anyone know how much the Caviar Classic Flap bag retails for now? i might just get it in one of the boutiques instead of off ebay.

I think the medium is 1495, the large 1595 and the jumbo 1650 USD.
