welcome back!Hello! I used to use this forum like 5 years ago and then stopped. Well I'm back and I just bought this Lil Ukita on Ebay. Can anyone verify it's authentic by the photos at all? Or should I wait and post again when I comes? Thanks!

Do these help any? It looks just like my old Lil Ukita that I used to have. I'm pretty sure it's real. It came with a dustbag and there was still the black plastic part on the handle where the tag used to be before it was taken off.
Great! Thanks so much, I'm still getting used to the color. It's not something I usually go for.
it looks fine so far, photo of the zipper pull engraving and zipperhead will confirm
ah, by zipperhead i meant the underside, like this. sorry for the confusion.
thank you!Oh goodness no worries, it was a GOOD fake. If I hadn't been able to pull out a few other Venetias to compare, I'm not sure I would have figured it out. My first clue was the weight seeming slightly off and the leather just felt different, enough to give me pause to really go over it with a fine tooth comb. On very close inspection I realized the zipper pulls, while identical to the ones on my other bags, all had the MJ name on the wrong side, facing the wrong way. The leather on the strap for the buckle was thinner and less rigid. The inner zipper opened in the opposite direction, on the inner flap pocket the flap itself did not have any sort of internal reinforcing, the stitching on the front pockets was continuous in an area that on every other soft calf bag I have is broken up. The suede lining was thinner. Honestly all very small, I had to REALLY go over the bag physically.
I think I have 15 of the soft calf classics, all bought through eBay and similar sites, and it's pretty incredible I've gone this long without getting a fake. And even with my carrying one of those bags every day for the past ten years, had the weight of this one not caught my attention, I probably never would have looked closer - it's that good. I initiated the return stating it was counterfeit, and without replying or asking any questions she immediately started the return process on her end. The silver lining is now I won't feel so guilty about that peacock Stella that I might have picked up this week.
authentic and no, the white tag was a later additionHello! Would appreciate it if someone can confirm if this is an authentic marc by marc jacobs petal to the metal Natasha bag. Hope somebody can help.
P.S. should all mbmj bags have the white tag with the barcode inside? I noticed that this bag has none. Only the "made in" tag is visible.
Thank you so much for taking the time. What you're doing in and for this forum is great!
would someone know if this is authentic? How much would this bag normally cost in preloved condition if that's okay? Thanks!
authentic and it's the totally turnlock mini quinnHello again! I'm taking advantage of this forum now that i've discovered it.
