Not sure if this one has been posted but I think this is a fake Legacy Thompson top handle...they have a picture of the drilldown next to a picture of the bag they are selling...and they DON'T match up

I think it looks fine, what do you think doesn't match up? I think they look exactly the same!

The drilldown image sometimes differs from the actual bag that made it to final mass production. I find it very annoying, and I think it might be the case in that auction. If you search for other Thompson bags, none of them look like the Coach drilldown picture.

Thanks, that's great to know! It was hard not to notice the difference with the ebayer placing the drilldown pic right next to theirs, lol. Sure can make someone who doesn't know the Thompson well (like me ) wonder when you start to look at the details...which this forum totally makes you do!
