Hello Guys,
Can you help authenticate this bag. It's from a Mexican Website....

Comments: It says it 100% Leather, it comes with dustbag, Lock and Key. I don't know the size, color or serial number
I hope this can be enough for you to help..
Thanks very much in advance...

It would be nice to see the made in country tag. Do you think the seller would provide it? A reputable seller should not have a problem with providing a picture if requested. From the pictures listed, I don't see any red flags but they aren't the greatest pictures, either. This appears to be a Leather (not Saffiano) Hamilton...an early model. I would need to see the made in country tag to be 100% sure.

I do have a question about this listing, though. When I translated it to English, it says the price is $1,800. Is this price in US Dollars or Mexican Pesos? $1,800 US Dollars is way over priced for a leather Hamilton bag when it originally sold for just under $400 US. I've never seen this site so I am not familiar with it at all.

Hi cdtracing, Thanks so much for your help. I agree with you, the pictures aren't the greatest. you can´t even see the complete bag.
I'll ask the seller for a photo of the Made in Country tag.
Luckily the price is in Mexican Pesos, the exchange rate in dollars it's something around 90.
Again, Thanks very much for the help

90 is a much better price. I had a "clutch my pearls" moment when I saw $1800. :D

This is an authentic vintage MK shoulder bag, probably sometime around late 90's to early 2000. I don't know the name; many of his older vintage bags didn't have names. This looks to be in very good condition. Often times, these vintage bags are better quality than the new bags being currently made.

Thanks, cdtracing! Yes it looks nearly new inside & out. I was carrying it on Sunday on another thrifting adventure at a different store…ran into a lady I know who said, "You like my bag, huh? It was in my closet for 5 years or so, so I donated it…glad you got it!" Go figure! And for $7.50, I call it a steal :)
