Is there a "made in" tag inside the bag? If so, please post pictures of both sides of the tag.

Although I don't see any red flags, I'm concerned. Generally when items are MFF (made for sale at the Coach outlet stores), it's fairly common to be able to find other examples of the same item.

However in the case of this style, I'm not finding a single other (domestic) example and can only find a few from Japanese sellers.

The problem is that in the last few years, there's been a proliferation of fakes from Japan, and a lot have been very close newer styles.
Hello thank you for replying here’s the picture of the made in tag it shows its made in vietnam

Good evening, authenticators! I took a chance over the summer and purchased several bags for a song at a local “clean out the bag hoard” sale. I’d like to authenticate them as I work through cleaning them up.
As always, many thanks for your time and knowledge! Happy Festivus!
