I love this bag:-) To get verified, you are able to go to your profile and follow the steps to get phone verified, etc. You should see those options there. As you verify, badges will show up by your name for us to see:-) Then you will be trusted more and get ALOT more bidding on your auctions. Now, I have to ask, because you are minimally verified; if I win this purse, you are going to send it to me, right? I want the purse instead of a refund of my credits, lol.
