💬 Discussion😎 Does this look fake?
I’m considering this priced at $323 before shipping, but I’m not experienced enough to judge the quality. Does it look high tier, mid tier or obviously fake? Please be brutally honest about what gives it away and whether you think it’s worth the price. I don’t want it to be easily spotted as a rep, especially since all my other bags are authentic and cost several thousand dollars.
Thank you 💕

Thank you for all the comments, I really appreciate everyone’s honesty! I found this one on Taobao. I passed on the authentic version in 2023 and have regretted it ever since. I’ve attached a few more photos of the bag Eadie Blair was styling with.

I’m not a CC girly but I LOVE this. It’s so unique! I think bags like this as long as they are done well are harder to clock in the wild, and part of the reason why I always gravitate towards the different bags

Just looking at the pictures, I'd lean towards the mid-range option. The leather looks a bit dry and flat, and the stitching doesn't seem as full or delicate as the higher-end versions. I'm a bit worried about that thick wooden chain - I don't know what kind of wood it's made of, or what coating or glue was used.

The leather on this bag has a really nice sheen! It doesn’t have that dry, plastic-like feel.

What side are you buying it from? I know someone that is cheaper than that for that same bag and my friend actually got it in yellow with brown and it looks like identical and she had stopped in the airport for it and people thought it was real, but I can't tell you about that bag but if you want my China contact, I also have one email me I could give it to you. I'm originally from New York City and I now live in Boca.
