I actually own this bag without the studs in a pale metalic purple. I bought it at a sample sale a couple years ago. I dont know if this bag is fake or not, but I know that alot of times when I buy from the sample sales they have styles that were never actually mass produced.

Do you know if it is still available to buy?

Sorry you both have been very misled. I have worked for the company for 3 years - this is actually a fake - I'm positive of it. Don't buy it - you'll be sorry. The seller probably took it off ebay because she was scared she would be caught selling a fake - not because she wanted more money!

SORRY!

I am not really familiar with Botkier but that blue bags leather doesn't look right.

The copper and white pics look like they are authentic. It could be because they are two different styles that they have different zippers??

The only I can say this is fake is because the LINING of Botkier is horizontal to the NAME PLATE. Most of my Botkiers have the lining non-symmetrical to the name plate. More diagonal to the name KWIM???

I actually emailed the seller to see if it was still available, because I really like the bag. I didnt want to buy it though if it was a fake, so I asked her to send me a bunch of pictures. She emailed me back and even sent me a ton more pictures and a copy of her sales order from neimans. BUT when I offered to buy it for $200, she told me that she would no longer consider selling it for less than $350 because she felt really shortchanged. What the heck does that mean?

Still $350 is a good deal on a one of a kind bag, and even at the sample sales they are still around $350 - $400. Should I buy it?

If LVlover100 was right, and the bag was definitely fake, this means people can fake sales orders now too? This is very scary and upsetting :sad:
