did anyone see this auction? seller said they would send me more pics, and of the lining, tag, etc. but nada. i can't tell if it's fake from that pic!

look at shipping. it's coming from Miami, not Hong Kong! lol
plus i wonder how the head of the zipper came off, without breaking teeth?! might be hard to fix, too.

Hi,

can you please help me authenticate this Lesportsac Tote? I wonder why the Lesportsac stripe around the bag is missing when the same model on the website has it ( and it also has black handles while the one I would like to buy has the brown ones). I thought all Lesportsac Totes have this stripe but I also found the same model in Bicycle design which doesn´t have it. So I am confused and need your help, please. Here are the pictures. ( I also included the pictures from the website).

Thank you very much in advance.

i got this today, and while it looks good, it does not have the riri m6 or anything stamped on the underside of the zipper head. :( also, on the black strap, it has the words le sport sac repeating along the strap. these are signs that it is fake, correct. my 1st tokidoki, and a fake! :( what should i do? my contact with seller i asked for the info on zipper head. she said she did not see anything but she said this is definitely a real le sport sac tokidoki bag. she was nice and told me all of the characters that were on the bag.
i really think she did not know it was fake.

what should i do? i paid $71 for it.

i could not edit my post, sorry.

i wanted to add, that i contacted seller just now. i like the bag, but i bought it thinking it was authentic and it is not. i would not mind it being fake, had i actually known it WAS fake. plus i would not have paid this much for a fake.

thanks! that is what i was going by for my thoughts. (albeit too late)

if i get it right, it's supposed to be the lesportsac logo (looks like little zipper heads with lesporsac on them. this is just the words lesportsac repeating. then the riri is missing on the zipper head. that is supposed to be the main thing to look for. then no made in china tag in pocket, and no stretchy cord. it's fake, right? :(

yes, if no riri under zipper head, must be a fake. sorry! on the real thing, LESPORTSAC is printed repeatedly on the strap.

the lining is yellow, they got that right. i think this is one of the AU fakes that looks pretty real. the main things are : no riri on the underside of zipper head, no made in china label inside zipper pocket in purse, no qee or chain, no carbiner (or whatever, stretch cord with attachment).

i just wanted to update! the seller has contacted me, and she REALLY did not know that this is a fake bag. we worked out an arrangement, and i'm happy with it. i know from now on, i must check for that riri on zipper head, above all else, before i bid! lol

thanks to everyone, for the help! :)

It's a flower pattern "Le SportSac"

Here is the link on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290435881220&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

It has the YKK on the zipper head, what I'm worried about is the inside it is just white has no embroided tag. The only tag is at the very bottom, it's your average clothing type tag that says "Le Sportsac Carefully made in the U.S.A".

I loved this bag because of the vintage feel to it, I really hope it's authentic! HELP!!! :(.

there's no embroided tag on the inside of the classic lesportsac bags. i don't recall this style and if it was made in the USA, it could be 12 - 15 yrs ago...
