IT'S FAKE! GET YOUR MONEY BACK. The entire serial number is wrong.

Please also remember to include the seller's name in all requests - seller is "
Vinavintagefinds "
Sorry, this was my first time posting! Will take note next time.

Thank you for your help, I was a bit confused as to why the serial number didn’t line up with the usual series number. Thought it was just my eyes. Thankfully I didn’t buy it yet!
 
I did not see a response to my request quoted below. I think the Creed tag and the word Coach above it looks wrong. (Photo attached) She does name the store where she bought it which sounds credible. It’s a good deal, with a wallet, and I’d like to be sure of it before I pull the trigger. THANK YOU for this wonderful service. I love reading this thread. 28518798-2F5E-4B60-BE7C-D6FB55D1EA7C.jpeg

Comments: Would a knowledgable Authenticator look at this bag for me? It’s pretty but the Creed tag looks sketchy to me!
 
Ohhh yes, I would love to know. I have another "Bone" bag and it don't want them to look brand new, but also I don't want them to look like they've been roughed up and put away wet :angel:
White is really hard to rehab. They usually look better in photographs than they do in real life. White and light colors weren't dyed through the leather like other colors. They seem more like the color was painted on. The color doesn't come back with a rehab. Any kind of scrubbing will remove more color. You can bleach stains but it has no effect on wear. It is very possible that shoe polish was used on it at some point. I don't think you could improve it much with rehabbing unless you are willing to dye or paint it. It is difficult to get dye to adhere because of the painted coating on white bags. You have to make sure that coating is worn down enough to get the dye to work. Painting might work better.
