Default Bride Seats, Fake vs. Real

I'm not too sure if this is the right place but, I wanted to pick up a Bride seat from a shop, the guy only wants $250 or so and I don't know if its fake or not. Can some one please help me out. Thanks.

Oh I also went on the site, and it said suede / alcantara and cloth are fake. So what kind of material is it supposed to be. I don't know what alcantara is. Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks

I'm on my phone.. It doesn't let me search for some reason.

How do you know the guys just can't be dumb or something? He just does motor work and all that. He doesn't sell parts or anything. It came out of a customers car. He didn't know how much to sell it for. I told him I'd give him like $250-300 to see wut he said.

Can some one just please tell me what the difference is. Thanks

I think the placement of the bride tag is a way to tell....and if the word "Bride" is straight or not, because I have seen some that tend to curve.....

Fabric is the easiest way. Fake are suede/alcantara

yeah the fabric on the fakes are really really soft. almost like the kind of fabric where if u kept touching it it fuzzes up. suade = fake as well. for the the mesh on the replicas are a dead give away
