I am not an expert at authentication but I am on things relating to eBay and I have to tell you that if you are the winning bidder of this auction you are required to pay for it. By placing your bid you entered into a contract with seller and it is your obligation to honor that contract. If you do not pay the seller can open a dispute which will result in you receiving a strike against your eBay account. You will need to pay for the item and wait until you receive it. If it turns out to be a counterfeit as authenticated by one of the experts here, you can then open an "item not as received" dispute and subsequent claim. That way you would be refunded your money and no strikes would be issued against you as a non-paying bidder.
Good luck!

i am also not an expert but i would not pay for item until it has been confirmed as good. If this forum deems it a fake DO NOT PAY contact seller and tell them the item has been seen as a fake and you will not pay. also contact ebay and explain but please do not pay and then spend stressful time trying to get back money

That's why it's important to get it authenticated BEFORE entering into a legally binding contract by placing a potentially winning bid. The seller can still file an "Unpaid item claim" and OP's account will receive an unpaid item strike. She does that again with a different bag and eBay will close her account. As an occasional ebay seller I find it appalling how lightly some bidders, especially here on tPF take these contracts they enter into when placing a bid! Ask the seller for additional pictures if needed, get the item authenticated on one of the many sub forums - THEN place your bid.

Hi, Could you check this bag for me, please?
One of the engraved on the buckle looks like defect ( not deep, not even). It is not because of the photo taken.
The other thing is that the bag is kind of out of shape and the leather is thick.
Do you know how I can put the bag back to shape?

Thank you very much in advance.
Please let me know if you need more pictures.

Item name:Tod's black leather bag

Hi,
Continue the last post.
I also found that the dust bag's quality is not as good as my old one. It doesn't have flannel inside and the picture is not clear as mine,either.
I am kind of worry about this. or maybe it just comes from different year. Keep my fingers cross.
Thanks again.

Authentic.
I've seen the dustbag without felt inside. I think Tods may have produced some 'for outlet only, bags... Long after the Mikey left the boutiques, they were readily available at the outlets for a long time.
