See, that's what makes it so hard! Without seeing & feeling it in person, I would have been fooled too. I tried searching for that style as well, and couldn't find anything! I love Groovees, I've had a few & they're sooo cute!

OK. I'll take a couple more pics and post them tomorrow (It's my bedtime now). I'll see if I can get a more convincing 'it's a fake' shot. Thanks so much for engaging with this.

Yep, I love my Groovee. Here are a couple more pics. The mark on the lining looks so uniform I personally think it's a printing fault - so it would never have been used in an authentic MMJ.

The handles are flimsy, hence they are worn through. The coating of the faux leather has come away revealing the fabric underneath. I know MJ uses faux leather for some bags (totes?), but not this style right? And the spring clasp is not a normal MJ style is it?

Are there 2 zippers on the inside pocket?
 
Authentication and opinion needed on this ebay item, Marc by Marc Jacobs Natasha: Is this the "Newsprint" color? Is this bag authentic? What alarms me is the fact that the bag has buttons instead of magnetic closure!? Haven't seen it anywhere else. https://www.ebay.de/itm/tasche-marc...hKTIDGPLrc%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc

Also a general question... I have been looking around for a Petal to the Metal bag for a while ... is it that they do not age well, or are there sooo many minor quality fakes out there? Thank you!
