How to tell if a handbag is authentic

I am interested in a Gucci bag on ebay from a top quality seller that states the bag is new with tags, controllato card and dust bag.100% authentic will accept returns within 3 days. Im usually pretty good at spotting fakes, this bag looks real..i keep analizing the pics. How can one be totally sure its real?

There is a great website called the purse forum. If you post the ebay link on there in the forum the girls / guys there definitly know their handbags.

I am adding that site to my favorites now!

They said the bag was a fake. I reported the listing as counterfeit. The ad even states new with tags, but he did not have the tags as the seller stated in his email.

So glad he cancelled my bid. Boo hoo thought I was getting a great deal!
