Hey everyone!

I hope I am doing this properly. I bought a Marc Jacobs hobo yesterday at Nordstrom Rack, absolutely love it. However, I have spent over an hour on Google trying to figure out what the heck kind it is, name, anything.

I tried searching the manuf. model # to no avail. I have found a couple similar bags but nothing like mine entirely and I'm getting nervous that I bought some fake someone else may have returned? I trust Nordstroms but I need help from experts!

It was labeled as "toasted almond" on the printed Nordstrom Rack tag, so not stock. Magnetic closure, no zippers except the inside pocket. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Any direction on the name or if it's authentic would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

Manuf. # M0003896 225
Magnetic closure, 2 inside open pockets, 1 inside zipper pocket
Rich brown/brandy colored, super soft leather. http://imgur.com/a/qI5Gt

I think it's the MBMJ too hot to handle hobo in toasted almond. It's not fake, don't worry. Here is a link to Nordstrom, no longer available though.

See, that is what I had thought as well but there are small differences. My bag has the metal plate on the front, the THTH bag has the leather tag stamp. The sides are missing the dart pieces mine has and that has hardware, mine does not.

I did do some image browing and found that it's construction is just the same as this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Auth-Ma...-Tote-Multi-/131715675193?hash=item1eaaddb439

Everyone matches perfectly but the color. Is it normal to have a line like the Too Hot To Handle and then switch up small details like this? I see some have the cloth tags, different hardware, stitching at the top of the bag, etc.

In any case @bagsncakes thank you so much for responding. I have genuinely been tripping out I spent a couple hundred on someone else's returned fake! The quality seems flawless, I had hoped it was just a rare bag.

Item Name : Classic Q pursey cross body
Who took the pictures: I took the pics
History of the bag: purchased off a designer Facebook group so not sure
Comments: at first I was concerned that the bag was not made in Italy but I now know some MBMJ bags are made in Indonesia. Just wanting to confirm that it's real.

Hello ladies,
I'm new to Mac Jacobs and would like your advise on this bag please. I normally stay clear of the sellers with 0 feedback but she said she can provide bank statement as proof of purchase. Also the bag is listed on Vestiaire Colletive and they authenticate items before I send them to the buyer so not sure if she would risk listing a fake there? Thank you!
