I am still in search of the perfect diaper bag for me. I think I want the Kate Spade Messenger bag. I bought a KS tote last year from ebay and it was fake. I don't want to go thru that again. I found this one on ebay and I want to know if it looks fake. The seller said it has one pocket on the inside.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2345749921&category=15558&rd=1

The measurments of the bag look big but maybe she is wrong.

Actually- I don't care if its fake at this price. i just don't want it to scream "fake!" Know what I mean?

If you have Kate Spade messenger bag, can you look at this and tell me what you think. Thanks so mcuh for helping~

Sorry Daniella-I don't have an KS, but I was hoping to see if anyone had any tips as far as avoiding fake KS diaper bags..,

Thanks to a previous poster about fake Kate Spade bags, here are 2 great links about how to spot a fake.

Unfortunately, I still can't tell if the one I want is fake. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

I hope I am not too late! That bag is definitely a fake. My KS messenger diaper material is thick and would never bunch up like that. There are no pockets are the side just one large one held with velcro on the back. Inside there is a cell phone or bottle pocket, two other pockets against the front, and the changing pad does roll up and tie or attach with velcro. The label should always be sewed on on the outside, the inside, and on the pad. No one would ever sell a KS for that price.

I find that people are pretty honest when you email them a question so ask if it is authentic. my guess is that it is absolutely a fake due to price and that fact that they did not mention it was genuine. personally, I would not but it b/c you don't know what you are getting. type in auth or authentic in your search and you 'll probably see an authentic one to compare it to

Thanks-
I contacted the seller and she said that she bought it at a garage sale. She said that it has the USA label on the inside.

I looked at her seller history and she has never sold another Kate Spade bag so at least she is probably telling the truth about not knowing whether its fake or not.

I may still buy it since it's so cheap and I can't find another messenger bag that I like. Do fake Kate Spade bags look fake or just when you inspect them? I don't want it to look really fake.
