On the 2006 first bag, is it possible for the number on the front plate to differ from the number on the back of the leather tag? Front: N 3903 Y, below: 115748. Imprinted on the back of the leather tag: 103208•213048. Every authenticating tutorial claims the number on the front plate must ALWAYS match the number on the back of the tag. ANYONE???

Hi! Im so confused about the tag on a velo bag Im interested in purchasing. It looks different from some others and Im not sure Im reading it correctly. Seller says its a 2012 ultraviolet, but UV was a 2013 color. Can the tag point out the this is actually a 2012 dark violet? please help! I really appreciate any input!

Tag can't really tell you much about color or season, unless it's a silver tag with more information on it.

Best way to compare photographed colors is to compare the zipper tape to the two colors it might be. Photos of the zipper tape are less prone to variations from lighting etc., Good luck!

A First should not have 115748 anywhere on its tag. I've been seeing some bad 06 fakes lately. Be careful.

I posted the bag in the "authenticate this bbag" thread but no one was able to confirm authenticity :( I cant tell if the seller is just confused or lying. It is beautiful tho!

Doesn't seem right to me. I can't check the AT thread until tomorrow. If possible post there for help with photos.

Thank you. The seller begrudgingly sent me my money back. He implied that I was crazy and then proceeded to tell me his wife owned 3 authentic LV's. The important thing was that my money was refunded. I could never find any evidence to prove the bag was authentic and neither could he.

It's been awhile since I have been on this forum but I am wondering if anyone can help me with finding something I saw ages ago. There was a list or lists of serial numbers/style numbers (the ones engraved on the older silver plates inside the bag) that helped plebeians like myself determine year and season. Does that post still exist? The reason I am looking is because I want to sell a few Bals and not all of them have their original white cards with that information. Embarrassingly, I am also missing exact color names for two of them. Is any of that information included on the actual bag or do I need to post pics asking for help in another color related section of this forum? Thanks so much for any help!
