Hi I am back...my purse arrived so I am posting photos. I sent the original listing (here to TPF) a few days ago (for authentication) and was told it looks okay but needed photos of the inside tags to say for certain. Well, there are no inside tags....ah!

The seller said she used to work at MJ and bought this bag at a Sample Sale. I don't know if this makes a difference on the inside tags or not...anyway...here are my photos of the bag.

Please let me know what you think!

I'm not authorized to authenticate but I saw a purse with the same details that had an inside tag so I thought I'd share if that maybe helps somehow

looks good to me; I use to own this bag. Check the seam of the interior zip pocket, the tags may be in there.

Thank you! I figured it was authentic because I have owned a lot of designer bags (have been fooled once) and there definitely is a difference. This bag just felt too luxurious to be fake, but without finding any tags I started freaking myself out a little.

I pulled every lining out as far as it would go and "walked" along the seams...there are just no tags. Even though it looks like (in photos of this style bag I have found) the tags are found inside the large zippered compartment I checked everywhere just in case.

No tags...no signs of any tags...very weird.

In your experience do you have any idea why a bag would not have tags? An authentic bag I mean.

Thank you so much for taking the time to look and respond! I will enjoy her because she is an absolutely amazing bag!:hugs:

Sometimes the tags do fall out when not sewn in securely. I've seen that happen, even with one I own. I remember using this bag quite a lot when I had it; it was very versatile!
