Hmm... never seen one like that. But then again, I haven't been purchasing any Gucci handbags recently either.
As far as the actual bag goes, I don't see any red-flags screaming that its a fake. Is this a newer style? I don't recognize it.

Oh wait... I found it on Gucci's website. It is a newer style. I think you're okay.

Went to Harvey Nics yesterday and checked the Gucci dustbags... they're identical to mine.
Thanks for your help.

p.s. I agree... boys R smelly!

I found this in some old junk and am wondering if it's authentic or not.
The zippers don't have any letters on them and the lock and key work.

I'd just like to know. Any help would be appreciated!
Here are some pictures of the bag,
Thanks!

I was just looking more carefully at the bag and the lining is torn where there might have been a tag inside BUT the lining says "made in china" while the front of the bag itself has GUCCI made in Italy stamped into the leather. I'm pretty sure it's actual leather. Does the china thing give it away as a fake? Seems so to me but, as we all know, I'm no expert. Thanks! Patti

^^^ I looked at your bag... it looks fake to me. I have never seen a style like that in Gucci before, but the font looks weird to me. Plus, as you said, the "Made in China" tag should be a dead giveaway. Gucci is not made in China.

I know. I was thinking more about the seller in general.

im not an expert in authenticating a gucci.. but they do have a gold heart clutch like that. sorry im no help

boysRsmelly · March 13th, 2008, 06:38 PM

I'm guessing its fake based on what is said down in the Q&A about the item... plus I wouldn't trust anything from iOffer anyway. Unfortunately, they are like 100 times worse than ebay when it comes to being littered with fakes.
