Default Saw a maybe purse today and wanted some input....

So do all these purses have black lining and a silver tag on the inside? Are those the defining characteristics?
I saw a bag today at an upscale consignment that had off white interior and the silver tag.

Be very careful because I have heard some girls that have found bags at consignment store and they end up being fakes. Really I would need pics to say for sure but I have never heard of or seen a BBag with white lining. Not all styles have the metal tags inside so there are many ways to authenticate a Bbag. If you have pics or can sneak some feel free to post them so I can take a look.

I'll try. The bags are behind glass and the woman is kind of scary. But I don't think she would have a problem since I said I wanted the bag, but wanted to make sure it is real. I'll go back this weekend.

Thanks~ And she wanted a lot for it. What a dissapointment. I think she wanted $850 and this is a ritzy place. I buy a ton of Chanel, Calvin, Theory, etc from there.
