I don't own one and am not familiar with the bag. Perhaps you can get more answers from this website? They do evaluations on Michael Kors bags and are very good.

Thank you I'll check them out
I also just found this purse on Tradesy, its the only one I've seen exactly like mine. Same size and with the zipper instead of the card slots. https://www.tradesy.com/bags/michae...d-cross-body-bag-black-2021132/?tref=category
I'm hoping its authentic I really like the bag
lolAnd also I just had one more question, sorry lol but are the fakes now coming out with tags inside? Or is it still a great way to know if something is authentic? I'm pretty new to this so sorry if I'm asking dumb questions lol
I'm quite sure it is authentic.Thank you I'll check them out

To Everyone Concerned:
I feel that I have to speak up for myself, as I have just received a un-needed message from one of the well known and helpful members of the purse forum. The message is as follows:
Hello, Two of authenticators on the MK forum have noticed that all 67 of your posts have bee for free authentications. It is quite obvious that you are a seller, using this forum to get free authentications. Many of the professional sites have bulk rate discounts for sellers. Here is a really good one I can recommend for you.
http://*****************.com/
We only do evaluations for participating members of this forum that have at least 25 post and that do not use this forum primarily for free authentications. Thank you.
I was shocked to say the least when reading this message, for a number of reasons, and at first I said to myself I would not post anything publicly to defend myself, but I unfortunately feel I need to.
Firstly I am not a seller, never have been of designer bags and never will be.
Unfortunately I cannot afford to buy ANY designer bag/purse at retail price.
I do not trust ebay as there are too many counterfeits so I scrounge around boot sales to find my bags (I wont apologies for that).
Not that I need to say this but up until 3 years ago I only bought fake bags (they were cheap and I didnt think I could ever afford a 2nd hand genuine designer bag, that was until I went to Rome, I found a lovely 2nd hand shop which was selling a Valentino Bow Bag, brand new with dust bag etc for 200EUR. That was it, I was hooked, and since then I have been on the look out for other 2nd hand designer bags. I dont ever want a fake bag again!!!
I have attached a picture, which I cant believe Ive done to try and prove myself, but I own 23 bags and purses and have not posted all of them on the purse forum asking for authentication (havent got a clue where 67 posts have come from? which I have been accused of) As everyone can see I have NOT sold any item of my bag collection.
Also I understand that the members would like others to help with authentications but if I dont know about my own items how can I go on someone elses post whos asking for help and give my own imput?
My collection breaks down to:
2 x Mulberrys (1 being a purse), 1 x Louboutin, 1 x Jimmy Choo, 1 x Stella McCartney, 1 x D&G purse, 2 x Valentinos ( the bow bag I didnt even put on the forum for auntetcation), 1 x Miu Miu, 1 x Gucci, 1 x Dior, 2 x Burberrys, 2 x Chloe, 3 x Prada (again 1 of these I havent asked for help), 1 x See By Chloe and lastly 4 x Michael Kors.
As you can see I dont stick to a certain brand (I cant do when going to bootsales,) also some of the above have been birthday/christmas gifts which I have asked to be authenticated as my hubby wont come on this site due to "keyboard warriors" which now I dont blame him.
I hate the fact the I have felt that I have had to justify/prove myself to anyone.
Do not worry I will be coming off this site, I can only feel sorry for any other member who want a item authenticating and ask for 20 items over the space of at least 2 years.
Bye

Yes, the super fakes have all the tags and ofen are very hard to tell. That is when we send folks to this website. They are one of only two that evaluate Michael Kors and they are very good! I use them myself.

All one has to do is look at your profile and view you previous posts. Every single one of them is for an authentication! All 65 of them, so far! Here is the link so you can see what I am seeing. . http://forum.purseblog.com/search.php?searchid=51125952
I private messaged you so as not to embarrass you, but if you would rather make it public, by all means, all one has to do , is look at your previous posts to see I have a genuine concern. Your activity here was actually pointed out to me by another authenticator here, so I am not the only one with this concern. I simply do not do evaluations for members with under 25 posts, or that primarily use this forum for authentications. or just joined to get one / them. Sorry if this offends you, but these are my requirements. There are many here that have these same requirements in other brands as well, and there are some that don't. It even says this in in the MK Authenticity thread, authenticators' signatures. There are websites you can go to, for these services. I do not wish to take any business away from them. I ask that you please participate with us on this forum for something other than free authentications. We have a lot of fun here sharing ideas and bags. Every single one of your posts has been in an authenticity thread only. Please participate in other areas as well. Thank you.
P.S. I need to address this/ your statement . Quote " Also I understand that the members would like others to help with authentications but if I dont know about my own items how can I go on someone elses post whos asking for help and give my own imput?"
If you read the rules on the first page of every authentication thread, it requires a member to have at least 500 posts to comment on authenticity threads, and have other requirements as well. No one is asking for your help with authentications. We are just hoping you will particpate more in OTHER threads and topics besides getting your bags authenticated only.

Thank you and everyone that take time out of their busy lives to help answer questions that we have about bags. I don't think some appreciate the work that goes into what you do and it's not appreciated as much as it should be. Rules are needed to keep such a busy forum running as smooth as it is and I just wanted to say THANKS...some might agree and some might disagree but your doing a great job keep it up!
How nice! Thank YOU! It's people like you that appreciate us that keep us going. There are so many that think they are 'entitled' and we are their servants! lol! This forum is a wonderful place and we really do enjoy helping people to not buy fakes. But yes, there are rules and limitations. Thanks so much for your kind words. You are a sweety!Thank you and everyone that take time out of their busy lives to help answer questions that we have about bags.

Thank you so much! It's so nice to be appreciated. We do this as volunteers & sometimes it takes a lot of work in researching. I do this because I enjoy doing it & it helps others. Thank you, again, for your kind words.

Seconded, we learn so much from the ladies in the know on here which teaches us how to know what we are buying and we know if we ever need advice, you can give that.
We also have great chats and people that don't join in with that miss so much.
I love the fact that tpf is full of like minded people who understand what buying handbags is like. My friends and family don't get it, so i love sharing new purchases with the girls on here who understand and appreciate.
We would be lost without our angel authenticators. Actually yes you are the charlies angels of kors, fighting the good fight to try and ensure fakes are left in the garbage where they belong.
Ignore the nellies, they are just trying to het something for nothing, there are people
Like that wherever you go sadly.
Your commitment is appreciated.xx
