I apologize in advance if I did not do this correct as I am new to this site. I am looking to find out if the bag that I have attached photos is authentic and hopefully get some information regarding the model and possible value of the bag. I have possession of bag and can take more photos if needed.

Hello &
to the ATMK thread of TPF. I evaluate bags for active members with a post count of 25 or more. I require this so new members can familiarize themselves with the site, it's forums, & format. Please participate by finding threads that interest you & post your comments on them. There are tons of forums on this site from designer items to health & wellness & anything in between. Once you have your post count up, I will be happy to evaluate your bag. Just quote your original post & post again. Thank you for your understanding. 
I'm back. Lots of great threads on this site. Thanks for the intro and I appreciate your help and guidance.
First off, let me thank you for the clear, excellent pictures. This is a beautiful, vintage, & authentic Michael Kors ID Chain Tassel Tote. It's from his high end Michael Kors Collection & is genuine python snakeskin. The bag is in excellent condition, especially since it was made in the mid 90's. While I don't have catalogs that go back as far as the mid 90's, his genuine python bags sold for $3-4,000 plus when they first retailed them. This bag is extremely rare & was a limited edition. Based on it's excellent condition & rarity, it's worth probably at least $1,000-1,500 or more. (I'm estimating it's value on the low side.) It's a very striking bag to be sure!! Congratulations on having this prize.
It's not often that I get to see a bag of this age in such perfect condition. Definitely drool worthy!!
In fact, I would appreciate it very much if you would post pictures of it in our Michael Kors Library section (at the top of the page) in the Michael Kors Collection thread. There is also a MK vintage thread in the Library that it can go in as well since it is a vintage bag. Thank you so much for sharing this bag with us.

Thank you very much for taking the time to provide your knowledge. I had no idea how old the bag was and had a hard time finding anything out about the bag. Your information has helped me a lot. I will take your advice and post the photos in the threads you stated. Keep a look out for more bags as I obtained a large amount of designer bags that I would like to find more information out. It's like Christmas when you get to find out the history of a bag. Once again, thank you very much.
I have done some intensive research of this bag based on the pictures provide. I see some red flags that trouble me & see some key elements missing to prove authenticity. Without the link to the sale & more necessary pictures (the list of required pictures can be found in the first post of this thread.), I have to say this bag is a fake based on the missing key elements from the pictures you have already provide. Sorry.
If you still have doubts, for a small fee, you can contact a third party authentication service. Just Google Michael Kors authentication service.- Serial Number: 30S6GTTT3B

- I took the photos
- My grandmother purchased this bag for me from Amazon. I never owned a MK purse, and I am a bit apprehensive in the authenticity of this bag. I feel awful for questioning it, as it was a sweet gesture, but I don't necessarily feel comfortable owning a counterfeited handbag.
I was wondering if anyone could help me? I've just bought a MK bag third party. The girl said it was genuine, used but in good condition. It has the Made In tab but no serial number, just the date of production. It seems to look legit however the hanging gold MK logo on the outside has dark spots on it and when I looked closer, noticed it flakes off gold if I scratch over the dark parts with my nail. Is this normal or does it indicate it's plastic? It also doesn't seem to hold its own weight very well and collapses in on itself whilst standing but I don't know if this is a factor of age?
