Thank you. Any help on this.

I can't read the first part of the serial number but if the prefix ends in a 3, it's fake. It looks like"W13-". Do you own this and can you get a clearer picture? I'm not liking what I see so far, and not just because of the serial number, there is at least one other problem. Is this available somewhere online?

I'd suggest avoiding that Ebay seller " alohalis " in the future. It's pretty even money that she knows it's fake and that's why she didn't include the serial number and why she insists " No returns/refunds ".

Here's the pic of the creed and serial, it shows a fake with a "scars, scratches" creed with a separate "Made in the United States" line that had been discontinued by 1997 at the very latest but which is in a fake with a 2001 year code, an "3" plant code that didn't come into use until 1999 and was only used by a China plant, AND an invalid "W" month code.

Hi yes the seller is alohalis. She states that she isn't sure it's authentic so I wanted to check. She emailed me the creed photo . It isn't in the listing. The other photos are from the listing.

Seller alohalis (333) KNOWS it's fake because the listing was already removed on December 1. (That listing had the creed shown in the listing.)

Thank you so much!
It's authentic. What a beautiful bag!
Use caution with seller laurieriales1. She's a mixer.

These were sold fakes.
Someone paid $85: https://poshmark.com/listing/Authentic-Classic-EastWest-Compartment-Bag-5f6ea788941f17fabc842043
Someone paid $100: https://poshmark.com/listing/Authentic-Classic-Coach-Court-Bag-5f6ea17ee97e487052c5ce01
 
Oh my god :( do you think the purse I bought (paid $100 /cry) might be also a fake one? I know the lady has confirmed for me but could you please double check it for me? Thank you so much!
 
Follow up from GW Abilene. Disappointed that the ticket was closed until I reopened it by asking when I Can expect a refund, appears return was coming but nothing to my bank acct today
