The Spanish firm – a favourite with Premier League stars – says its  Women’s Barbes Medium East-West Shopper Bag is made from calfskin and boasts two top handles, two removable straps and two inner pockets. 

The online version, from Homewares Direct, is almost twice as big and is four-star rated. 

One shopper said: “They look almost identical. It’s staggering the difference in price.”
