Does this official looking site (with official looking URL) belong to this hall too?

They don't provide any of the photos needed by an informed buyer, plus the prices are extremely low. It's really hard to tell.
Their e-mail URL in their Contact area doesn't go to this site. They are based in Hong Kong, not the UK. The descriptions are a mish-mash of odd English -OR- they are taken directly from the real BV site (just compared this). The photos are taken from the original BV site. The prices are too good to be true.
It reminds me a an innocent hornet's nest - just fine, as long as you don't touch it.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Did you happen to read any of the reviews, they are very strange indeed!
Seriously thinking this is a fake after searching on the web for some hours...not an expert

I don't think this is fake

I see you've posted a request in the Authentication thread - let somebody respond to you before you assume this is fake.
A particularly awful example - I've reported it. Seller tells me there are no tags in the bag at all. PLEASE, everybody, get this off the 'bay...

ETA: OMG! Great seller took the auction down after I told her what she 'didn't' have! Wow, first time for everything, yes?

Yikes, there are quite a few people watching this horrible fake BV bag. I asked the seller to post pix of the heat stamp and tag. No response. Please get this off the bay by reporting.

Yes, we're all waiting for her to post or send those pictures--I asked her two days ago. She's responded to other questions, but not request for pix!
I thought it was off, but I'm not that experienced so thanks for posting it here. I've reported it, too.
The listing was ended by the seller "due to an error in the listing." Yup, she finally figured out it isn't authentic.
