1, 2 and 4 look ok.

There's no way we can authenticate #3, especially since the Willis is a highly faked style, without a clear readable photo of the creed and serial number.
 
Can someone please authenticate this? I picked it up at the thrift store, thought it looked good, got home and now I think It's fake.

Thank you!

It IS fake - a predominantly C pattern or Logo pattern bag should never have C- or Logo-pattern lining. And half the serial number is missing. Coach serial numbers are NEVER only 5 digits. There are a LOT of other problems too but those are biggest.

Get your money back NOW. Thrift stores are NOT exempt from state and federal anti-counterfeiting laws.

Thank you Hyacinth!
Sorry about #3; some tabs I keep open to ask about authentication after I've received a picture from the seller or they update the listing. As always, thank you for your efforts, they are greatly appreciated.:D
