Sites such as Ebay are now absolutely flooded with imitations and they are becoming more and more difficult to recognise. As it were, it is now more of a case of spotting the authentic bag rather than the fake so read the following carefully; with your utmost attention and matchsticks in your eyes - no blinking!1.) Firstly, there were ONLY ever 5 limited edition colours produced which are as follows:UK Brown - Medium shade (could be described as earthy or pale chocolate)USA Blue - NavyAsia Grey - CharcoalJapanese Green - Dark greenBreast Cancer Awareness Special Edition (Lavender Trust) - Pastel pink/mauve (Only 200 pink ones were produced so it is not likely that you will get your hands on one unless you are willing to pay a very steep price.Any other colours or shades of the above ARE imitations so avoid like the plague! 2.) If the advert states that the bag is "I'm NOT A Plastic bag" or Anya Hindmarch 'Inspired' then it is NOT an authentic bag.3.) A genuine "I'm NOT A Plastic Bag" has no pockets e.g. for mobile phone and is open top with no zips, poppers or fasteners of any kind whatsoever.4.) Your bag should look / be described as the following...As the item is handmade the measurements (cm) given below are approximations although your item should not noticeably variate.Please pay very close attention to detail as you may need to rely on ONLY ONE of the following signs to determine if a well produced imitation is just that.a.) Handmade from high quality cream cotton canvas with large "I'm NOT A Plastic bag" stitched lettering across the front in one of the colours from above and trimmed in a matching shade. (See Section 3 and Section 4 for a detailed analysis of the stitched lettering although I would advise reading through this section first).b.) The Anya Hindmarch London designer logo (bow with A and H in each loop) should be approximately 2cm wide and 1cm tall. The logo should be stitched approx 1 inch from the top of the bag to the center of the bow (or 2cm from trim to top of the bow and set centrally between the handle eye-holes. ...From a genuine grey version WATCH HERE for a chance to buy the actual genuine grey bag in these images! Many of the first imitations to hit Ebay had an inflated bow logo appearing to be approx 2-3 times the size of that on the originals. Once you have seen the comparison it is easy to recognise an inflated bow even from poor quality pictures... The above is a fake bag determined by the enlarged Anya Hindmarch logo. c.) The sides, back and bottom of the bag should show only plain cream canvas apart from the visible colour trim and the silver eyes on the back where the handles loop through. The bottom is lined with a form of strong card or plastic and covered in canvas.d.) VERY IMPORTANT - The inner lining should display the following two printed slogans exactly as described in detail below. The replica bags are now look so similar to the originals that just one of the points highlighted in these guides may be your ONLY way to tell if the bag is genuine. Genuine bags (as shown left in grey) will always display both the slogans Initially it was only authentic bags that had these markings but is seems that most of the replicas are now displaying them too although not necessarily as described here so pay VERY close attention to detail. ANYA HINDMARCH (on reverse of bag front) just over 2cm from the bag top, in capitals and centrally set between the eye-holes as shown below. LONDON Want to buy this actual bag? WATCH HERE!
