The item has been removed from Mercari. It is fake. The serial number has issues. Was the hardware nickel?
Wow it has been deleted so quickly, I don’t know what kind of metal it is. And to my surprise, there are so many fake 9027 in the market! I found another rare green one as well and I doubt it is fake cause the seller didn’t offer a creed photo but she says that the number is D6E -9027, is that a certain evidence that shows it is fake?

All THREE are fake.

First one - FAKE. Bad plant code, invalid year code, fake hardware

Second - the creed is unreadable which is because of bad stamping, and several of the creed details including the wording and the Coach logo are wrong

Third - bad zipper installation, non-Coach lining, Coach Leatherware stamp isn't right and is too small.

Were these all bought from the same seller?

More opinions are welcome, it's not often that we see three Foaches from the same source.
Yes, they were in a box lot of about 20 purses and wallets from various brands, all from the same seller. Thank you for confirming my suspicions on those items.
If you ever see that seller again at ANY flea market, garage sale, or anything similar, RUN LIKE HE LL.

I hope you didn't lose a lot of money on them. When a voice inside your head says that "there might be something wrong with this plant code or buckle or turnlock or creed" or something else, listen to it.
Yup, all are fake. I agree with Hyacinth.

That doesn't prove it is fake. They made Willis before 1997, if that is what you were thinking. It is nickel (silver) hardware that wasn't used until 1997. The E plant code is only valid if it was made in Italy. I wouldn't rely on what a seller says the serial number is; I need to see the creed to know if it is fake or not.

Hi I found this said authentic Coach handbag online. No other Coach labels on the bag besides the tag attached and the creed can barely be seen (17 x 14 x 7) (USA PAT 4453294)

Can someone tell me if its authentic or not?

Yes, right, as for 1997, I mean yesterday one of the authenticator told me that the 9027 mini hobo is not made till 1997, I love this style so much So I really want to know more about it and I almost bought this green one, before I got a creed photo it is bought by another person ><
