^^ Well just because it's a fake doesn't mean it has to be horrible leather.

Didn't say they're all horrible. But you'll be hard pressed to find a fake with exquisite leather. Also, the size of the zipper pull tab on the VD actually looks more authentic than the one on the while. Overall the VD looks more real, not only based on leather. Despite fake bags being capable of nice leather, I've never seen them on par with that of an authentic Bbag.

wow I would have never guessed that it was fake I am glad you are getting your money back! The studs an leather look good, once you received it did you know it was fake or only after comparing it?

Wow! If I bought this bag in a million years I would not know it was fake!!!! I can't believe how good they get. You know what makes me really mad is that Balenciaga is an Art. And it can be duplicated so easily! I always thought that only looking at the leather I 'll be able to tell the difference, apparently not.Thank God you are getting refund! Actually , there is a chance that the seller bought the bag thinking it was auhtentic....'caus she did not know any better....

I agree with gro. I didn't find the listing but based on this photo the black thread on the interior tab looks gnarly. I really wish we could see the front and back of the interior tab because I've never seen a fake that's gotten that perfectly right.

So sorry Chesh :sad:. This is pretty spooky because I admit the leather does look quite pillowy and nice. Based on the side by sides alone, I'd have guessed the VD was the real one! that's how good it looks.

Wow. Font on tag is legit too. Chesh, wait for more feedback and info to come in before sending back. It would be great to get more comparisons on possible changes from one season to the next based on the disparities you noticed. I'm strongly leaning towards VD being authentic. And if it's still not, all of us authenticators are in dire doodoo:push:.

I think OP said the rivet is dead on but she already sent the bag back to the seller to claim her money back.

oh noooo!!! now we'll never know if it was real or not. i'm thinking it is an authentic VD bag - i've never seen a rivet faked OR the font faked ever!! and that color of leather looks exactly like Bal leather, exactly!

hopefully gina/GRO can give us some comparison pics as well... :nogood:

sorry to hear too! and a real thank you for posting up the pictures..makes me really realize there're real good copies out there!
this makes it even harder for people outside US to buy from ebay..coz by the time the bag arrives with us, it's gonna be hard for a refund already given the timeframe..that is for a person like me who has to ship to my brother in US who knows nothing about balenciaga..*sigh*

Glad you spotted it & getting a refund thought!!
