It's listed as grey. I don't have the bag but it looks very pearly!
I'm asking her if it is silver or more matte!

Yeah I've seen black bags look like they're a totally different colour because of lighting.
wouldn't it have silver hw, if it was holiday metallic? (faded) grey/anthra is 99%
Hey all 
hope everyone's enjoying the weekend.
Is this bag a 2005 Chocolate Day? I asked the seller and she said she wasn't sure, chocolate is how she described the color but didn't know it's official name. She added some daylight pics for more clarity.
Any help or opinions appreciated!

I do not think this is dark enough for a 2005 chocolate. I'm thinking it's much newer, maybe 2009 or 2010. It may be 2009 chataigne (chestnut) or 2010 castagna. I also do not think the last numbers on the back of the tag coincide with 2005, but sometimes my memory fails me, lol.
Maybe this will help...here's a picture of my 2005 Chocolate City and 2009 Chaitagne Weekender. Your bag in question seems to skew more light brown rather than chocolate.Thanks for your help @cbarrus! I had seen other styles that were Chocolate and they look almost black. I needed some experienced Bal eyes for reassurance.
Lol I know how you feel
That helps me so much @samfalstaff, thank you! Now I can really see the difference. Like milk chocolate and dark chocolate - both delicious lol. I am on a quest to find a Chocolate Day
Btw your bags are divine
love seeing your posts!

love seeing your posts!OK I'll put in my two bit's worth. Note the fade on mine compared to the mirror. The zipper tape on the eBay bag is too dark for chataigne and it's not castagna, there would be a colour code on it if it was. The zipper tape on mine looks a lot like the eBay bag. It's not charbon because it's too warm, not ashy enough. Cafe is really dark. I think it's possible it could be chocolate but trying to tell a shade of brown from photos is hard, especially when you don't have all of the possibles lined up in the same light.That helps me so much @samfalstaff, thank you!

That's a good point about the fading. My chocolate City shows no fading at all when compared with its mirror.
Thanks! I understand the struggle. I've been on the hunt on and off for a year now trying to find a mogano Day.That helps me so much @samfalstaff, thank you! Now I can really see the difference. Like milk chocolate and dark chocolate - both delicious lol. I am on a quest to find a Chocolate Day

Thanks for those comparative pics and comments @muchstuff, very helpful and informative.
That is honestly why I was so confused by the pics in the listing - they all looked so different for the same bag. I searched the Bal library, looked at other Chocolates from different websites, checked tags, etc. and still felt unsure (I will check zipper tapes too in the future). Besides being inexperienced, I'm beginning to understand why it's such a challenge to determine the color.
Side note: those deep rich Chocolates are just gorgeous - kryptonite to me!
