Would someone please kindly take a look at this Goodwill listing?

Item: VNTG Coach Brown Leather Crossbody
Listing number: 143156689
Seller and site where listed
Link: shopgoodwill.com/item/143156689
Comments: What style is this? Wider than Court, different strap attachment than Avenue?
Thank you very much!
I don't know the style but the bag is genuine.
 
I bought from my local goodwill store not sure if it is real or not was wondering if you could help me with that. I paid $ 15.00 for it.


VERY bad fake! Get your money back!

Normally we require a FULL SET OF PHOTOS as listed in the IMPORTANT _ READ ME post at the top of every page in this thread, but this is such an obvious fake that those 2 are all we need. EVERY DETAIL including the creed stamping, lining, serial number and
wordsinthecreedthatallruntogetherlikethis in those photos is wrong.

For any and all future authentication requests please read and follow the instructions in the top post or we won't be able to authenticate anything.

Are you aware that it's small briefcase, not a handbag? Look at the measurements. It's also going to be much heavier than a purse.

It looks like a Letter Brief, style 5270 from around 1990-91
