    Both are fake Lisa! A good tip is if they don't even get the name of the bag right then it's fake but not always true. Plus the green bag's leather looks weird, font on the tags are not correct and the rivets don't have notches in them on the handles. Plus the hardware color is wrong.

    ahh, but that is how I get deals on LV

    figured they both were, but thought I'd ask ... plus we didn't have an authenticity thread!

    Yeah, it's not always true that when the style name is not right that it's fake but most of the time.

    So glad we finally have one of these threads going! What do you all think about this?

    2005 Pre-Fall Authentic Balenciaga Mangenta Mini First - (eBay item 190143469684 end time Aug-27-07 12:17:43 PDT)

    And - just an opinion question here, but what would you make as your highest bid considering it's such a teeny bag (but oh so cute!)?

    Oh, and this one (mind you I have NO business looking at either of these, but what can I say?):

    100% AUTHENTIC BALENCIAGA MINI TWIGGY IN METALLIC RED - (eBay item 270158608475 end time Aug-31-07 00:56:48 PDT)

    I would say both of these are really but get second opinions. I was looking at the Magenta Mini, too, but decided it would be way too small. I think it retails for around $695 so depending on the condition depends on how high I would bid.
