I am not an expert, but I know enough to understand that the luxury goods sold at flea markets are counterfeit, guaranteed. Look at the zipper on the left. The stitching is obviously uneven. You've been had.

I don't work for RL himself, but I've purchased and owned enough of his things over the years. I suppose that counts for something.

"Polo" doesn't automatically equal "Ralph Lauren". (Just look at US Polo Assn.) Polo is merely a name of a sport. I can already tell you the iconic Polo Player symbol doesn't match up.

I think it's a generic Polo sporting bag that doesn't have anything to do with Ralph Lauren.

Honestly? Probably less that you paid for it. It's a cheap imitation.

Yep. Worthless.

Agreed. Knock-off. Not even a legitimate line. "Polo Gentleman"? And it appears to be a ladies' handbag .

It might not be a Ralph Lauren bag but it is reasonably well made and presumably made of leather so why not just use it as an everyday bag.
