Collecting Authentic purses from different countries is a hobby but unfortunetley there are some people out there that try and sell fake purses, please be aware of what your buying and know that I only purchase authentic product.There are so many fakes out there but you can always tell buy some of the scripting and look of the item. Most authenic product purses have there name ingraved on the ring holes that hold the straps. Watch for these things and you will be successful. Good luck
