Vert Anis or Vert Cru? Help Identify

Considering that it's stated as brand new, it's not much over retail in the US. Just get it authenticated. It is watermarked as "Italy Station" with the item in HK. I recall some discussion about the Milan Station in HK selling BOTH fakes and authentic. I have no idea if this is the same place, different place or what. Tread carefully, as you say, it's a lot of money. You should be able to hunt down a VA bag this time of year. Have your SA keep and eye out. Better to purchase from H or a trusted reseller.

oh, and yes, vert anis for sure.
