Hello! Please authenticate this Swagger 27 for me. Looks just fine to me EXCEPT upon arrival I noticed the Coach plate in front is upside down. :sad: Did I get a random error bag, or is it not genuine? I'm happy to post any other requested pics- just let me know what is needed. Thank you!

I recall a couple of years ago that someone posted a similar mistake. I'll see if I can find the post.

While I think the bag seems okay, I'd return it. If you're like I am, you might try to sell it when you replace or get tired of it. IMO, trying to explain to a buyer that Coach made a mistake is a hassle I wouldn't want to deal with.

ETA: Here's a post where they misstamped the month code upside down:

Here's a whole thread that talks about the logo being attached incorrectly. I also saved a picture.

It was on a batch of Madison Sophias if I recall. I remember seeing them at the outlet. There were several, which seems more likely than just seeing one.

Comment: creed does not look right. F5(?)E-9135, made in United States.

It doesn't look right because it's not right!

Report away.

Thank you!
In looking at my own records, I found that mzvintageaffair3 had this same fake removed on April 9, cache of the listing below.
