i live in korea, and asia is the land of kock-offs. especially LV.
you should be able to recongize if it's real or fake from the quality. does it look like genuine leather, or does it look cheap? does it look like the leather is actually dyed, or like it has been painted on? (scratch it a little bit). what about the smell? real quality leather has a distinct smell, also, the buckles and zippers- are they heavy? they should be heavy and the craftmanship should be perfect..
if you want, go to a department store and check out a real Prada bag...by looking at it and comparing it with yours, you should be able to tell if yours is real, or not.

i am pretty sure that it is fake. I have read many other questions here that ask if their handbag is fake and many of the answers are "yes if it has a tag made in china" if yours has that then i am 90% sure it is a fake. but it is a gift so it really shouldn't matter unless you are embarassed of wearing a fake which i would be. Please don't tell him! I went to the website and saw the same thing. Usually big brand names like Prada don't sell their stuff online but they do usually show their items. I guess Prada is "too good" to do even that lol.

Then it's probably fake. If it has a "Made in China" tag it's fake, because name brand items don't get made in China, no offense to Chinese people. Prada handbags are probably made in Europe. Though I have to ask you, if he wouldn't tell you how much it costed, then how do you know he doesn't know he wasted a lot of money? I mean, if he didn't tell you, then he must know it's fake too. Did he say it was made by Prada? Is there a logo on your gift that proves it's real? Ask yourself.

hey sweetie
i'm sorry but i do believe you don't have a real prada. i bought one at saks and it comes with an authenticity note in a little black envelope. all prada bags are made in milan, italy and would therefore not say made in china unless it was a knock-off. well enjoy and appreciate your gift<3

The spelling is fake, that much I know. If you have a hadnabg I guarantee you the spelling is fake, and who would ever want to buy something that the spelling is fake tell me that. And if the spelling is fake who knows what kind of authenticity the actual hadnabg is good for. Lots of luck anyway.

There's no evidence it's "real," nor any "proof." You can test the validity of thousands of statements made in the bible, though -- and quite easily. For example, Matthew 22 quotes bible jesus as saying that with a tiny bit of faith, you can command a mountain to move and it will do so, and nothing will be impossible to you. Has anyone, with ANY amount of faith, ever been about to move a mountain on command? Nope. Are things that are impossible to everyone else (such as levitating yourself 20 feet in the air with no mechanical aid) impossible to people with "faith," no matter how much "faith" they have? Yep. That statement fails every test it's ever put to, so it cannot in any way be "true." There are thousands of other such testable claims in the bible, and every one fails every test. That's ample evidence it's not "true" in any sense.

It's really hard to tell. Your best bet is to take it to a prada shop and ask. I've never seen one in person so I wouldn't know.

It's a gift. The price tag is irrelevant. You simply say thank you.
