It's fake. 9920 is the style number of the Becket zip. There was a small Willis, called a Winnie, #9023. It doesn't look anything like this one. There are too many mistakes in that creed, including the font and spacing, the large "o" and long underline, as well as the things you mentioned.

Thanks for the input Whateve!

How do you report a fake EBay listing please
Click to expand...

If it's not one of the fakes we've already confirmed here, please post the link and information so others can report it too. The more reports Ebay gets, the more likely it is that the listing will be removed. And Ebay seems to give a little extra weight to reports by the members who have the most experience reporting..

I've been vero for several years. I got disgusted with the anti-seller/pro-buyer policies, rising prices for less exposure and other ebay BS and decided to sell mainly on Bonz. I will occasionally take advantage of an ebay sale but when pictures are stolen, they're usually found on Google and link back to Bonz.

It was very easy to apply and reports are submitted by email.

The best thing about VeRO (aka DMCA) is that a VeRO listing removal for infringement carries a much more serious ding to the thief's account than a takedown resulting from a report of image or text theft. (In one case, the thief was naru'ed when she stole my pictures a second time. There may have been other violations but I'm not told about them.) With a VeRO takedown, you are told when they remove the listing.

I had some serious luck on my side while out looking for bags! I potentially found three that I think are a brown legacy small flap bag, a black basic bag and a sage station bag. Let me know if you all think they're okay :smile1: The basic bag is a little iffy to me because it doesn't feel like most NYC bags and it has a YKK zipper rather than a Talon which I haven't seen before.

They all seem ok to me. Coach was using YKK zippers as early as the later 1980s, and some Station Bags had the creed stamping at the back of the front pocket.

Early to mid-80s on the Basic, late 80s for the Station. Can't answer about the hangtags.

Awesome! Thanks again, Hyacinth! I think I might play it safe with the hangtags and take them off the basic bag. The bag is old enough that I think if anything the tags are newer since they're double sided and don't say leatherware on them.
