Soooooooooo......another update of the counterfeit bag from andine. I jjust st received an email from customer service stating the following - maybe there is hope yet? Did the other buyer who lost the case send the bag to customer service?

Thank you for sending us your photos. We understand your frustration and want to provide you with the assistance that you need. We'd like to investigate this case further. Attached to this email please find a shipping label to send to the item to our office, where we can further investigate in person. We have a team of specialists handling these types of cases. If the item is not authentic, we will return it to the seller and process a full refund back to your original method of payment. However, if we determine that the item is authentic, we will return the item back to you. We kindly ask that you please ship out the order at your earliest convenience.

Thank you,
Hey there! So sorry about andine and PM being a PITA. PM doesn't really know much about vintage Coach and what's fake and what isn't. I did send the bag to them eventually after lots of emails with photos and links to authentication thread here and they still didn't budge. In my case they refunded me as a one time courtesy but still claimed the bag was authentic. I can't recall which post number it was. I did not accept my order unlike you. But bottom line is, it's still illegal to sell a fake and PM should protect you as a buyer as per their policy.

Starting post 16853.
 
Has a station bag ever had the creed stamped into the front pocket? Note the bullseye mark on the left.

Will you post more pictures?

Yes, in goodwill now so hope they're visible enough
I know you're at the store but I didn't want to give misinformation.

While I thought the bag looked good, I did more research to confirm.

Here's an older post with the same question. @whateve commented right after the following post:
