Hey all, new to the forum and just wondered if this used Kate Spade I just received was too good of a deal to be true.

Is this fake?

It is properly embossed with "kate spade new york" on the front, but there is only a "made in china" tag on the inside and no serial or kate spade tag. Though, it is leather and the metal feet aren't too large, and the stitching seems fine. Thoughts?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I would have to see the whole bag, the ksny label, the interior, etc. Your pic doesn't show me anything, really.

Yup, too good to be true. It's a counterfeit. I hope you can get your money back!

Hi, i'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but, can i check, are all leather Kate Spade bag's handles meant to be able to stand up straight on its own or it is normal and perfectly fine if the front handle falls down each time i try to stand it up straight? If it is authentic and has no manufacturing issues, both the front and back handles are supposed to stand up straight, am i right?

Specifically, this bag: the Southport Avenue Carmen; http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-NWT-Kat...517?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item35d8d62115

I received the southport carmen and the one i got, the front handle keeps falling whenever i wear the bag, hold it up etc. Is that a manufacturing defect/problem?

Do let me know so that i can decide what to do next. Appreciate any opinions, thanks!

I'm not sure that they're actually built to always stand straight up. If the bag you got is the one in that pic, it is authentic. I have many ks bags, and it seems as if some handles stand up straight and some fall over... but it's never been an issue for me. If you don't like it, you could return it Nd switch it for another one! :) it's a gorgeous bag, by the way!

I see.. The seller is telling me that the handles will fall and that it is normal. Have you seen other KS carmen bags before? If you did, any idea if the handles do fall? Would there be chances of me getting another carmen bag with the front handles being able to stand up straight and not fall over each time? Sadly, at where i live, i don't have to opportunity to have a look at the carmen bag at a KS outlet store..

The handles are bugging me a little as i wanted the bag to be perfect. Guess i'll have to decide if i want to return it or not.. Thanks & thanks for the advice :)

I just received a Poshmark purchase but when I compare th inside tags to ones on eBay, it makes me think this wristlet is fake. What do you guys think? This is the cobble hill pebbles leather bee wristlet...thanks :)

I've seen this bracelet pop up on a couple different sites in the last week (different sellers). I googled and couldn't find a pink KS bangle engraved with "from me to you" so I was wondering if it's authentic.

What made me a bit suspicious is the white "made in China" tag, which looks different from the tag that usually comes with KS bracelets (the ones I have bought say "made in China" in several languages). Another listing I saw had a tag that looked like a KS model number but looked like it was sold at TJ Maxx or some other discount store. Maybe it was made for the outlets?

It doesn't seem worth making a knockoff but I thought I would ask the experts here! This is one of the listings:
