Here MK is literally everywhere, i'd even say it's 50/50 with LV by a mass number, e.g out of a hundred there would be 30 LV, 30 MK and about 20 Chanels, rest 20 will be a mix... that's my feeling... a bit of Coach as well, but i am not that close to other contemporary brands to spot them in the crowd
now i am curious how true this statistics is, will count them next time i am in the mall :biggrin:

Earlier this year, my local Saks Off 5th had some Bbags (and BV bags too). Example, Rose thulian Day for around $1,100, curry city for around $1,500. Less expensive than retail but more than what can be found on the secondary market.

I believe G21 hardware was phased out in S/S 2012 so your bag would have the smaller G12 hardware if it's from that year. I know that there were blank zipper heads in 2010 with the introduction of rose gold but don't know re: 2012, perhaps someone else could weigh in. There are many different qualities of fake B bags, for peace of mind you may want to post the appropriate photos on the authenticate this thread and have the gals take a look.

My 2 cents - my 2 Day hobos from 2012 have "Lampo" stamps, one is regular hw, another G12 rose gold

Hi everyone! I'm on this forum from time to time for the past few years... I wanted to say HI because I've got my sights set on a Bal Papier A6 or a First or a City Small. . . for an everyday fall/winter bag. Now I'm saving my money. Normally I would shop the Real Real but with all the talk on here about fakes, I'm setting my sights on My Theresa, Yoogi's Closet or Neiman Marcus.

Let the savings begin! I already have a 2015 Bal Hip Crossbody from Neiman's, a Bal wallet from Yoogi's Closet, and Bal lock sandals from My Theresa from this past summer. I can't get enough Balenciaga and I love seeing all your inspiring purchases!

Hi. Just wondering why someone would buy a purse and not use it for almost 10 years and then decide to sell it? I can understand a year or so without using it but nearly a decade? Sometimes I wonder about if a seller says "never used", is that the truth? Thanks in advance for your input.
