1- genuine, but there might be some damage on the strap right above where it's buckled if you bring up a close-up of the first photo.

2- genuine, but the hangtag isn't original, it's probably from a Sheridan or Dakota. If the "original dustcover" is the brown fabric under the bag in the second picture it might be a real Coach dustbag but it's not the same age as the Willis.

3- the creed photo is completely unreadable so I can't authenticate it.

There is a creed photo in the photobucket link for the third one but the number is cut off. It's a made in Turkey creed.

Perhaps, I'm being crazy. But it seems as though sellers blocked people who are in the purse forum, especially if you name is the same. Coincidence?

Its seems more prev on posh!

I think that posh itself could be blocking people from tpf rather than individual sellers.

On the ebay subforum, there's a long Poshmark thread and I've posted some recent comments about being unable to ask questions there. I don't know if Poshmark suspended me or if they've blocked my ability to comment and ask questions but if it's the latter, it's probably because they don't like people who point out fakes.
I should add a bit more information. IMO, Poshmark is doing something that is unethical and irresponsible.

As Whateve said, in many cases, Poshmark is blocking members from commenting but they're making it appear that the sellers are doing the blocking.

That's downright dishonest of PM to put the blame on sellers when those sellers aren't blocking the members.

IMO, if PM wants to suspend or warn members, POSHMARK should do it and notify those members. If you're blocked or suspended, you aren't told; you just find out when you try to ask a question.

The wallet looks fine. And although I don't see any red flags on the bag, I think you're missing (i.e., not finding) the white production tag.

Did you stick your hand way down and feel around the inside of the zippered pocket? You might even have to pull the pocket inside out to find it.

I did do that and found nothing. :-/
It does look exactly like my other Edie though (same quality leather, etc.), but no production tag... Are they ever missing altogether? Thanks again!
I've never heard of the tag being missing altogether but I don't have the bag and can't confirm that it should be there. (Is there one in your other bag?)

Since you have both in hand to compare and feel comfortable that they match, I think that's good.

As I said earlier, I don't see any other problems.

I found it! It was just where you said and I only found it when I pulled the zippered pocket all the way out. THANK YOU, BeenBurned!! So does it look okay now?IMG_1511147492.650068.jpg
