Item: Coach 9043
Link: Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/232445182417
Seller: debsw52

Comment: please confirm it's fake. The font looks very different than other authentic bags from the same month and plant.

Good eye! You are absolutely right. Here is what it should look like.
I missed the fake that was removed but be careful of debsw52.

She has at least two other fakes currently listed and who knows how many have been sold. A seller with this many Coach bags needs to verify her items before listing them.

Hello Everyone
This one just came up in a search.

I assume this 4923 is fake because of the lining , but would appreciate your confirming that before I report. Thanks as always for your help!

Please wait for Hyacinth or Whateve.

I wonder whether Coach made a mistake on the style number. While the creed is weird (as are many Sonoma creeds) and the lining is different from what most have, the style looks like what 4943 looks like.

The spacing and font in the serial number match another B5E creed:
