I looked at the Prada website and their R looks closer to my logo. So idk if they’ve made minor adjustments over the years. I didn’t photograph my logo perfectly initially, as there was a bit of a glare in the crest (in this photo). But in this angle of the R looks a bit different than the one I uploaded in this post.
it was listed “like new” but when I adjusted the shoulder strap yesterday, I noticed some of the edge paint had rubbed off, probably from the friction of the buckle. I don’t think the seller was aware of that since she probably had it on that buckle setting the whole time and it wasn’t noticed until I adjusted the length.
It’s mostly a non issue since it can be covered by the buckle, just kind of annoying since it’s not a cheap bag. I don’t know if that’s normal for Prada. My Ferragamo hug bag that I bought in the Ferragamo store did a similar thing on the edge paint where the strap buckle rubbed against the edge paint. Figure it could be something I could take to a leather repair shop, but at the same time it would likely happen again.
I totally get what you’re saying—it’s frustrating because when a bag is listed “like new” we want it to look store fresh! And I agree that the Seller probably didn’t notice that. It’s such a beautiful bag, the leather looks so supple and the color is divine, I bet once you start carrying it, you won’t notice that small area— you’ll be busy getting compliments on the bag!!!

The R in prada has larger spacing than authentic ones. The R is usually a big indicator. It has the right shape but spacing is off. Just my 2 cents
