You shouldn't have misled us by posting a link to a place you didn't buy it from. What type of store did you buy it in?

Oh im sorry about that... when i asked at this group, i haven't tak some photo of my bag.

Have you already purchased it? When you get the bag, come back and post your own pictures of the bag you receive. That's the only way to accurately assess an item when a listing uses stock images.

Here is the tag.
Oya, i've asked the seller before, and they said that the bag that they have are from the Factory

There are big problems with the price tag. The description and the UPC code point to a factory bag called a mini Ruby crossbody in midnight navy. The style number for that bag is 34604. The style number on your price tag is inconsistent with the rest of the tag. It doesn't even look like a Coach price tag. The font is off. There is something seriously wrong here.

If the style number on the creed had an F, it would match the style number on the tag, but it doesn't. Plus this isn't a factory style so it shouldn't have an F. The fact that they put a fake price tag on the bag points to some kind of fraud. If this happened to me, I would return it.

So, they must matched between the number at the creed, and the style number at the price tag...

Thank you very much... i will return this bag

That's not necessarily the case also in this instance with a brand new style, I don't know.

I've seen cases (in the US) where they'll replace the boutique/full price tag with an outlet one (made at the outlet store). But in those cases, the creeds are also stamped with an outlet bullet.

To demonstrate the differences between the fake tag and what it should look like, I've attached some pictures showing comparisons.

The counterfeiters have figured out what the style should look like and they've copied it. Many of the listings show the Coach stock photo so of course, the images will look the same.

But also, because the fake makers are getting better at copying, their fakes are better at fooling buyers. But in just about every case, they make some mistakes.

There might also be mistakes in stitching, hardware, linings, fonts, etc. but since there aren't enough listings of the same style with actual pictures of the bags, we can't see those differences.

However, with the fake tag with the incorrect information and wrong fonts, it's pretty clear that the bag the tag is on is fake.
