Hmmm...now I'm interested in what they told you. Do you mind sharing? If you don't want to post it publicly, maybe you could message me the reason?

They asked me to send pictures of the lining and they forwarded the pics to "relevant department". No reply yet after sending the pictures, so now I'm waiting. I'll let you know what they say.

I assume that the mysteriously vanished tag means that my Re Edition isn't made in Italy (all my other Prada Nylon bags are) but I don't really care about that. But I do want to know why the tag is missing:confused1:

I just bought a classic nylon black one. I am excited to receive it. I got it at quite a deal as new without tags so we will see. I’m gonna ask about authentication later when I receive it to make sure I wasn’t scammed but since it was on eBay if I provide proof I should be refunded. I’m happy though because I really wanted a new handbag but some of them were coming off too high even second hand and I decided this purchase was acceptable and very versatile I think I’ll love it! I’ve been wanting a smaller bag for everyday :)

Prada finally answered and their explanation was... Well, they really didn't have any explanation. They basically told me that the tag is indeed missing and in their opinion it's not a problem. They assured me that the bag was checked by their quality control before shipping and there are no flaws. Which is kinda true, the only thing "wrong" with it is the missing tag.

According to Prada customer service they have over 400 manufacturers and some products are made in Italy, some in other countries like Vietnam, Japan, India and China. Which of course we already know.
So in other words they don't have a clue where my Re Edition 2005 was made lol!

Lol...I don't even know what to say to this. At least you know that it's authentic. However, you might have a hard time trying to resell it if you decide to one day.

I can't absolutely verify this, but when Prada started farming out their manufacturing to China, rumor had it that the Prada boutiques were VERY aware of the "Made in China" stigma. More than once someone has posted the same thing you posted: no Made in [wherever] tag to be found and the story was that the SA's were removing the Made in China tags to also remove that stigma. Sleezy, but believable.

I'm sorry they were unhelpful like this. I would've ask to exchange, or just return and re-buy should they not oblige. If your color happened to be the re-nylon ones that were recent, then highly likely they were made in Italy.

The nude is such a pretty neutral! I'm normally not a huge fan of beige purses but the tone of the prada is really fresh. I just opened my blue one and OMG YOU NEED!! the blue is really limited so I def recommend getting it if you love!!

The lv is also cute but I heard more people prefer the prada over it. There's a bunch of videos on YouTube comparing the two :smile:

Is this the desert beige or cameo beige?

hey :smile: what are your opinions on the beige colors?

do you like cameo (first picture) or deserto (second picture) more?

I have the feeling, that cameo is more pinkish & deserto is more greyish-yellowy?

Thank you

I got the re-edition 2005 in cameo beige. I had the choice between the two and the deserto was just too light for me. Yes, cameo is more on the pinky side and deserto is more gray.

They are no longer being produced. My SA sourced the world for mine. It was one of the last ones available and this was back in April/May. She told me she located it in Japan. I just lucked out. Mine is also the crossbody one with the silver chain. I'm not sure about the shoulder version.

Thanks! I like the cameo beige color so much more than the new beige color. I may have to find a different color.

Just bought my first ever Prada bag! I’m obsessed! I love how casual this bag is, I don’t have any bags that aren’t leather so I’m looking forward to a nylon bag being more carefree.
I’m shocked with how fast I got it too! I ordered it on Sunday night and it arrived this morning!
(I live in Ontario, Canada and it looks like they ship from Toronto - for my fellow Canadians out there!)E5E94889-10F1-4693-8E24-FAA94A582789.jpeg
