Dear all, I finally have all three spies with me now.
I received the cognac a couple of weeks ago, and collected the zucca and the petrol today.
The cognac and zucca are lovely, but unfortunately the petrol is a fake.
I am so crushed and sad.
The seller put in an authentic receipt from Bloomingdales for a spy bag. But it is so wrinkled and crushed.
However, the spy I received was different from the real McCoy in that:
1. The smell is different. Smells like regular calf leather
2. The braiding on the handles are so rough. The sides of each leather strip is not sealed, instead it looks like someone drew two black lines on the sides of each leather strip.
3. The leather is rather shiny. It has bubbles in some areas and then a whole strip of wrinkles in others.

I've written to the seller telling him that it is a fake and I have also raised a dispute in paypal.
I'm devastated. I am so sad I can't think of anything else.
