Found at my goodwill.
Here's 5.
I'm so sorry for posting separate.
I tried to get pictures of everything but it's not allowing me to upload some of them for some reason.
Thanks again so much for your help!

1- Sorry, fake. Invalid serial number font, and the serial number indicateds it was made in 1994 but the #6953 hobo wasn't even introduced until 2001

2- genuine, probably a 4111 Cafe bag from the early 1990s

3- genuine, probably a Basic Bag

4- genuine, not enough photos to identify

5- genuine, maybe a 9937 Ritchie Bag from 1995

And PLEASE post them one at a time. Not only won't you be allowed to post more than a certain number, but then if the pics get scrambled or out of order we may not be able to tell which ones belong together.

SO awesome! Thank you so much! I think I didn't pretty well. :) I was thinking the first was a fake, but wasn't 100%. At $3 dollars a piece, can't really complain. Lol 4 was the one it wouldn't let me upload more than what I did for some reason. I'll try to upload more in the identify thread tomorrow.
And, i didn't thnk of that! I was worried it was going to clog the feed. Thank you again! You're awesome. Have a Wonderful Weekend!
 
Hi all, I had purchase this on an impulse, but I searched the serial number and I keep reading that the prefix J8H tends to be fake. I just wanted to verify before i request a cancel . Thank you!

I'm not able to open the listing. It's saying it was removed. But your pictures show that the bag is fake.
