My Megan came in that my husband found for me!
Pretty sure it's a fake. But that's okay! He tried and I love him so very much for it. She's gonna need some work. Which is also fine. Lol
I'm pretty sure he got it from Poshmark but I don't have the link.

I think the bag is pretty, and I love the lines on the end, but I’m new to the vintage game and haven’t seen it before. The blue zipper on the inner pocket has me suspicious that it’s been used/abused. Let me know when you can!

If the leather quality is good and its sturdy, and pretty, I'd still carry it.

From what I can see, it is one of those made in Korea fakes. I need more pictures to confirm. It doesn't seem right to let the Poshmark seller get away with selling a fake.

Even when fakes look right, the leather isn't the same quality as Coach and likely will never respond to conditioning like a Coach.

I keep trying to upload the ones that I had taken but it isn't letting it go through. I'll keep trying throughout the day.
I'm about 99.9% sure it's a fake.
And it's really okay. He said it wasn't much and he was so excited that he found one for me. I'm really okay with that. I don't want to bum him out more. I hate when people sell fakes as well, but it's mainly for my husband's sake now more than anything. Lol

If the creed says made in Korea, you can be sure it is fake. I'm only seeing 5 numbers of the creed. If that is all there is, it is fake.

Yes, that's all there is.
I don't think I'm even going to mention it to my husband. If he doesn't ask, at least. Lol I love him too much to hurt his feelings. I'll ask him how much it was(doubt he'll tell me) and if it was below like 20, then I'm not going to worry either. Lol
Thanks so much for your help though! :)

Yup, the serial number is 101-73. I can't read the "made in Korea" though but it's definitely fake.

jdal622 , his heart was in the right place!
