Chloe 'Silverado' Bag

[vintage_princess]

Thanks for the pics, klow-chloe. I like the two-tone better, the dark brown is too dark for me.

^^^ eww. overkill.

 

[vintage_princess]

Is that last one new? I saw a fake one just like that on ebay!

The new navy blue looks quite interesting me thinks..hmmm...

I can picture myself rockin' it.

Thanks all since I won't be able to get the original brown so I think I'll settle for the two tones one.
Here are some of the python bags which will be available at Luisaviroma sometime in June.

I'm sorry, but these bags have got to be fake. The workmanship is so poor that they cannot be authentic.

Hmm it does look fake, doesn't it? But the pic is from Luisaviaroma since they sell the authetic stuffs as we know... I don't know why it look soooooo fakey.

Hmm.. I used to think this phyton silverado is quite hard
to make a good fake but here are the pics I saw from
a website which sells knock offs.. made with real phyton skin!

This fake look nicer that the authentic ones that I posted - imo. Where do you get the pic from which website - thanks.

 

[the_dark_angel]

This website is not written in English!
It says it was made in Italy by real python skin
so need to order 2 months in advance and its price is like..
er.. 300$?

Wow...Looks good!!! Oh dear...

Those fakes do look good - unfortunately, someone will soon be selling them on ebay as the real thing.

 

[pucci_mama]

I dont think they look good at all!

 

[PrincessImp.]

Unfortunately, they do look pretty convincing!!

Hi there. I know that it is illegal to sell python in California and Neiman's, etc. don't carry them. But does anyone know if you buy it from another state, can you ship a python bag to someone living in California? Are there penalties? Thanks.

I was having the same problem, but I was able to order a pewter one off the Neiman's website and have it shipped to me in CA without a problem. However, all the SA's at out of state Neimans wouldn't put my name on a waiting list unless I gave them a shipping address outside of CA. They don't care if it's charged to someone in CA as long as it's not shipped here. Not sure about penalties... : /

 

[BAGCRAZY]

That's great that you could get it through the website at least. Wonder if it's just CA or other states have restrictions too.

as far as getting a python bag shipped to California, my advice is to try -- you never know. there seems to be no problem ordering a python bag on-line -- I've done it several times with Neiman's, Bergdorf's and Barney's without an issue. also, Nordstrom doesn't seem to mind shipping to California -- I've had a couple things sent from the store in Ohio. and the rep from Devi Kroell said they will gladly ship bags to California so long as they're for personal use. so there are a lot of ways around the prohibition.

Got these pics from ebay can someone please tell if this is authentic. The seller claims that this is the original brown. Something about the look inside of this bag does look off.

 

[cougess]

It looks authentic, but it also looks very similar to the pictures of the fake bag that were posted a few posts earlier (a light tan color). Did you check out the seller's "handling fees"? He wants $5 for every $100 in price - that along is enough to make you wonder about his credibility. He also seems to have a lot of disclaimers on the page. Has he said told you where he purchased the bag from?
