I've not seen that top treatment before. Is it fake??

Please see this listing for a wallet I am interested in purchasing, but am unsure about in terms of authenticity, etc. I appreciate your expert advice!

Hey Sheepy!! Welcome to PF and the kate spade fanatics!

I happen to own this wallet and I compared mine (bought directly from kate spade a couple years ago) to the photos shown and it is indeed authentic. The label on the outside is a new style used by kate spade (although the newest version doesn't have a black background). The lining is a pretty emerald green. The leather is very nice and wears like iron.

I'll tell ya...for the price the seller is asking, if I didn't own this already, I'd snap this up myself! It's absolutely authentic and it's a great price. I paid more for mine!

Thank you so much Marissk! I really appreciate it! I'm definitely going to pounce on this one in a day or two, and hope some TPF'ers don't beat me to it!

This would be my first grown-up wallet, and I'm 28. Hehe.

Thanks again,
Sheepy

The label bothers me but it's just a bit too blurry. I ran it thru my fancy photo software to no avail. It does seem that the spacing in the letters is not correct, especially the "sp", which I've seen in many fake labels. However...it looks like it has some type of closure (perhaps a zipper under the tab, which isn't correct. In addition, there is some variation to the coloring (dark areas) which is also not correct.

My vote would be it's fake, but I'm not a real authenticator; I just play one on TPF!!

Another thing, the seller states on that link that this is a purse from the 80s. "kate spade" didn't exist in the 80s. Also, the black dust bag has just started being used. They've always been white just up until recently. So... I would say that this is a fake.
