Thank you for your expertise and time! I have never let any of my bag straps shortend, if it isn't the length I want, I don't buy it.
I will get the friend of mine to snap and post here soon. Thanks again for ur time.
I agree with CinthiaZ and cdtracing, your Charlton crossbody is authentic! Great little bag and love the pebbled vanilla leather!
I hadn't noticed cdtracing requested another pic. Please wait for her response . From the pics you provided it looks fine to me, but cd might have spotted something I didn't? Not sure. Please provide the pic she needs. Thanks!
I would never change my straps either. It takes away from the value of the bag, should you ever go to sell it. It is best to keep bags original and with all of their parts, including the key / hang tag, if it comes with one.Thank you for your expertise and time!

I wonder if many people know how well these bags hold their value, especially if they are in good condition with all of their original parts? Your designer handbag collection, can actually turn into a valuable heir loom for your daughters, just like your husbands tool collection can be, to your sons. So many of us have thousands of dollars worth of designer bags that is valuable enough for your kids to put a down payment on their house! lol! May sound far fetched, but seriously, those bags could help them one day! Is best to leave them original. If I like a bag enough but the strap is too long or short, I will get the bag, but just order a separate strap that fits me better. I keep the original strap in my closet, in case I decide to sell it later, it will still be in it's original condition. I buy chain straps that are interchangeable that I can use on any one of my bags.
Looks good and appears to be authentic. That does have the outlet type of signature lining. It is kind of weird that the 'Michael Kors is cut off on the clasp like that, in the second photo. . I would think that would be more uniform and complete, at least finishing the word Michael. Let me look a few things up. I will get back to you, but everything else looks good. Do you have the style name for this wallet? What is the title of the listing?. Also, where are you purchasing this from? Who is the seller?Got the rest of the photos

Ya. I am requesting the pic that cdtracing requested. Just to make sure everything is alright. Once I get it I will post here for cdtracing's kind review and comment. Thanks again
The hang tag in the pic is backwards, plus it is not hanging right on the leather leash. It should be centered on the middle of the little metal piece that is made to fit inside the loop of the leash. That is common and easily corrected. Other than that one little thing, I am quite sure the bag is authentic. Once cdtracing verifies you will have all of our opinions. So far you have two out of 3 of us regulars, so it's looking good for you! lol!
After further review, I am not so sure about this wallet. I found that this must be the mini wallet, as most of the regular wallets do not have the leather trim on the edges. I also question the way the leather overlaps in the second photo and I am not liking how the MK s are placed on the PVC. My biggest concern is that I can't find any with the snap on the back and how the Michael Kors is completely cut off, not even completing the word Michael. I find this to be unusual. Wallets are not my area of expertise so I will turn this over to either Jojo21 or Cdtracing . Please wait for their response.
According to the date code, it is an older model at least 5 years old, so I have nothing to compare it to. I have also not seen a date code start with the letter combination of 'GJ' before. I did an extensive search and could not find ONE with that snap on the back. This wallet has many good signs of authenticity and if it is a fake, it's a very good one, however, there are questionable signs that need to be addressed. At this point, knowing where it is from would really help. Could you please tell us where you are purchasing this from? Why do I have a feeling this is a facebook purchase?
If Jojo21 or cdtracing, or any one else here isn't sure, like me, you might have to get an evaluation from *****************.com. I do not feel comfortable telling you this wallet is authentic.
