If by known store, you mean a well known national store, then that is your safest bet.
Way too many illegal copies being sold online. That may be why you are seeing such good prices. Very good chance that what you are being offered is not a genuine Prada bag. A mainline department store or major chain boutique will have less chance of being fooled by a counterfeiters.
Same is true for some of the smaller, locally owned shops and boutiques. I wouldn't spend big money on such a product unless I really knew what the genuine article looked and felt like.
You remember seeing all those Gucci bags flooding the streets? Most were clearly not Gucci.

It really depends on how well known plus when you see the bag u like there must be a bag description that tells you the size exactly, and yes you will have to pay for shipment. Most on-line stores (USA) will not ship internationally, check first.
I have bought on-line but clothes only and from well known stores. Bags well although I trust these specific stores, I can not be certain of the bag description and color so I would rather see it myself specially when the item is that expensive.

i would honestly try to buy it in a store, maybe a nordstroms only because of the shipping. prada bags are usually made pretty well, at least decent, but with the shipping, that gives it a chance to get a little messed up and that isnt worth the money you are paying for it. prices are usually the same too but you obviously have to pay for the shipping.

Prada... ladda... money. Why would you purchase an expensive handbag if you need other people to shop for you? Just go on line and make the purchase - use your credit card and once you have taken possession of the item and find it is not to your liking, then return it for a full refund.

To assure authienticity purchase from a store, if you know what store has the one you want, see if you can just simply phone your order to have it shipped. It will be well worth it in the long run.

You should just buy from a known store. It's more secure and you don't have to worry about your bag being damaged while being delivered to you.

I would buy it in a store. If you do, there is no risk of it being fake, and you don't have to pay for shipping.
If you are buying from online, buy from a reputable place not "smart deals.ja" or something
