The croc embossed bags that I've seen have the regular cloth lining.I’m no exotics expert but an embossed wouldn’t have a leather interior?
I thought the same thing due to the leather lining (most designers’ exotics are lined with leather)I'm going to agree with you that this is NOT embossed. Whoever gets this, you're getting a great deal! Even if it's embossed, that's a somewhat decent price. If anyone here gets this please post pics!!
Yoogis also has one with leather lining that says embossed.I thought the same thing due to the leather lining (most designers’ exotics are lined with leather)
but then I found this on Fashionphile and I’d think they’d know the difference between real croc and embossed croc

Good to know!I believe all Neo Classics are lined in leather.
I looked around too. I'm leaning toward embossed leather, not crocodile.I thought the same thing due to the leather lining (most designers’ exotics are lined with leather)

^^ This looks like a mini city, not a classique to me. But is the lined in leather new? I found an authentic crocodile that checks all the boxes and is lined in fabric?Here is what appears to be genuine croc first, lined in leather.

I too have seen some from 2006 looking like genuine croc and lined in cloth. The one currently listed in CV is from 2015. I think some of us are sensing that it must be real croc since they don't line embossed croc with leather [EDIT to clarify that I mean standard style cities/firsts/works, not the styles that are already always lined in leather, such as the Neo Classics and Hourglass], not that they never line real croc in cloth. I'm leaning towards the VC listing being real croc.^^ This looks like a mini city, not a classique to me. But is the lined in leather new?

Big difference. I checked with @jbags07, who has a lot of exotic bags and she thinks embossed on the other as well.Here is what appears to be genuine croc first, lined in leather.

I was just thinking the same, we need someone who owns a croc to chime in. I thought it was a big difference too compared to deco's found bag. Plus I'm sure the seller would list for more if it was an exotic.Big difference. I checked with @jbags07, who has a lot of exotic bags and she thinks embossed on the other as well.
I've seen people not realize they had authentic croc list it as embossed before. But I trust @jbags07, she loves exotics.I was just thinking the same, we need someone who owns a croc to chime in.
