Good morning, authenticators. I am interested in this bag--I'm not sure why the distressing is so attractive to me. I was disappointed to see the mentions for this seller on TPF. Therefore, requesting authentication while I try to make a decision.

Thank you all so much in advance. I have two others to post, those because I think they're fake.

I think this one is fake. Hoping to alert the hive to report and have taken down.

I've learned the hard way that this color is not authentic, in addition to the T month code.

ETA: The last one must have been removed as I cannot locate it. It was a 'leather' duffle with a nubuc style number #4950 and lining but a genuine leather creed. Gone.

Would love an opinion on this. It’s a Facebook purchase (I have not paid yet) $40. Thank you in advance!

Hi. Got this satchel or messenger bag (not sure what to call it) 2yrs ago. Just need it authenticated. I can’t locate this anywhere online, as it may be fake, just want to know. Apologies if this is in wrong thread. Thank you.

Nope, not gone but fake and will be reported and hopefully gone soon.

It's authentic and was made in 2007.

It's authentic, made in either 1995 or 1996 (can't read it too well).

ETA: I sure wouldn't call that bag "MINT!" That listing is NAD (not as described) waiting to happen. This is from the description: "No odor or tear with normal signs of wear. Untouched, In it’s original state."

LOL!

If the bag shown in your pictures is the bag you have in your possession, it's authentic, made in 2013.

While you can get an idea about a bag from a comparable listing, it can be a dangerous way to authenticate. There are fakes that seem to "match" correct styles. Also, if both are fake, it's not helpful.

The serial number is a valid format but the font used isn't. The problem with the hardware is the back of the turnlock. We never use that alone to determine a bag is fake because hardware can be replaced. It is illegal to sell fakes so I would try to return it.

Thank you!
