As for "Made in..." label, my new wallet doesn't seem to have one that I could find. My latest laptop sleeve does have one sewn into the pocket. But from what I have seen in the photos you've provided, the embossing is not yet done by the counterfeiters.

As for the tote you show below, these are rare indeed, and usually made for the special occasion of a store opening. I don't think they have a name other than "Seoul Tote". They were either given to special customers or perhaps sold to others. I doubt anyone in America has ever seen your tote.

Any thoughts on this necklace from eBay? I can't find much info on the white version. Is it authentic?

Frankly, I do not trust ANY of the jewelry coming from China or Hong Kong (or anywhere else. The use stock photos and multiple IDs to keep selling after other accounts are removed.

Buyer beware...I wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole.

ETA: Remember that a manufacturer in China tainted baby formula to increase profits. Given that mentality, what would they care about a fake bracelet or necklace?? Lead paint, unsave metals...they don't care.

Off my soapbox.

You make excellent points. Do you know if a white version even existed?

OK...I'm having a VERY bad day!!! I stand corrected on the laptop sleeve; it appears to be authentic and the label is correct for this style. I've re-checked other listings on eBay and have the wise counsel of a good friend and it is authentic.

Forgive my 'bad brain' day!

Yes, this is authentic... I don't know the year or collection name, but I don't see anything that would indicate that it's not authentic!

Looks similar to a Cornelia St. Noel Tamara (different tote style but similar in metallic fabric pattern) I had several years back, but mine was black. I think they also made it in gold/white.

Marissak, on the necklace, here was the response that I had posted in the other KS thread: http://forum.purseblog.com/handbags...ny-fans-out-there-506751-90.html#post22712654

Let me know your thoughts. The necklace "Style" is legitimate, and I believe that the necklace did also come in white (although yellow was the more popular color it seems).

I have concerns about the wallet that I raised in my post above. Also, that green doesn't look like a Kate Spade green. While the little tab on the end of the zipper looks like it has the correct kate spade hardware, the green color looks nearly identical to the green used in the Michael Kors jet set line that is out right now, which uses saffiano. For reference, here is a picture of an MK zip around wallet in saffiano in green: http://www.harrods.com/product/saff...cat2=new-accessories-women-wallets-and-purses

I have similar concerns about the wallet. I can't say it's authentic or not authentic from those photos. I need to see inside. Yes, the hardware is correct, but I can only go by what I see. And what I see concerns me.

I've seen Mikas Pond both with the license plate and without from year to year. It's impossible to keep up!!

This is my first time posting (anywhere) and not even sure that I'm in the right spot so please be patient.
I looked for a website that would give me advise about this Kate Spade purse.
A friend gave it to my daughter and said she wasn't using it anymore. She gave it to me and now I'd like to find it a happy home and I'm wondering if it's authentic. I read about labels, liners and stitching but I'm out of my league. I'd appreciate any feedback and I apologize if I'm in the wrong thread or post(?)
Hopefully my pics will attach...did I mention I'm 63 and new to computers or is it obvious...thanks again
