I bought 2 $300 bags in Paris last year. That is tops for me! Normally, around $100 is as much as I would pay, and $75 would be average.

I have a coupon for Colehaan.com but it's not on sale yet and unsure if the coupon would even work with a sale item. Some do some don't. I'm going to keep an eye on the purse and wait for a sale.

I use to buy my son Nike shoes when he was in school because he was so rough on them like most boys are. That way I wasn't out buying shoes every 2 or 3 months. Sometimes it is better to pay alittle more for better quality.

Plus it seems to be easy enough to close. Which would help to stop a pickpocket seems to be a few acting like them here of late. Thinking they are smooth operators. They should be getting toothpicks instead and cleaning their teeth if you ask me.

Prada now makes stuff in China can you believe that!!! Started in 05 wow. I just bought two woman's wallets for 4.00 at a yard sale and was saying what a nice imitation they were well of course they are nice imitations because they are made by Prada themselves. wow.

She wanted 3.00 a piece but I told her I would give her 4.00 for two and she said yes. She never said a word to tell me they were real ones and that Prada now made them in china the cheaper brands that is. Maybe she didn't know the history like myself she kept giving me this look maybe she did and was just being nice how sweet if so.

Both wallets were brand new even. What a bargain and I didn't even know I was getting one. aww

Some of the Prada Sport line is Made in China, but most of their stuff is not. Just because it says made in China doesn't mean it's real and if you got them for $2.00 apiece they are most likely fake.

If you want to know if they are authentic post pictures of them here:

I bought them at a yard sale this morning not sure if they are or not. Still nice tho. I will post later on when I get a chance ok. Hopefully I can get a good picture of them.

I think you are right as I get a good luck at it it's not the micro stuff I don't think it looks more plastic to me. I'm think just and imitations as I thought from the begin however nice to learn something new.
For 2.00 no complaints tho.

I'm not an expert on leather but I would say it's not leather any place. It doesn't have the look of leather.

She was not tring to deceive me I can say that for a fact. She had a purse up front a green one with a handle messed up and she never once said they were real. She as asking 4.00 which wouldn't indicate they were real. And it was a neighborhood yard sale so more inlike they are not real. But It is fun learning.

I've only bought any of my high end purses at Department stores or boutiques because I wanted new ones, so I KNOW I'm not carrying a fake, but if there is a bag you want online post it on the appropriate board on The Purse Forum. They'll know if it's fake or not! I used to authenticate over on the Chanel board under the same name.

The one she had that looked messed up was more inlikey the real one. lol No one giving it a second look. Maybe.
