The first one is fake for many reasons besides just the one you mentioned, and can't be legally sold or traded in the US. It should just be destroyed if you can't get a refund. Does the creed say "leather WARS"under the coach logo? It might also say"wrinXles". The style .number is completely wrong for the style and date codes, and the hardware is wrong. The font used in the serial number is also wrong for the plant and the year.

The second and third look genuine. The third one is a Soho Leather Tote, I don't know the name of the second one.

Yes, the first one‘s creed does say ”LEATHER WARS”. I will shred and chuck it- I’m not risking my rep to sell anything fraudulent and I thinking the thrift store would just re-sell it honestly. I’ll chalk it up as a cheap learning experience to prevent me from making more (expensive) mistakes in the future! 2 out of 3 I suppose isn’t bad I really appreciate your help!

Can you remove the Coach trademark parts? If the leather is good quality, you could remove the trademarked pieces and maybe upcycle the bag into a new look.

Please don't take it personally that your request was ignored. I don't recommend Poshmark and as such, I don't authenticate listings posted there and usually ignore them.

But because I think I'm the only authenticator who would comment on this bag, I'll do so.

So far, it seems okay but I need a few more pictures. Please request pictures of the front and back of the made in tag, a clear and legible picture of the full creed cropped to just outside the edges of the patch and a picture of the small white label that buried at the bottom left corner inside the zippered pocket.

She did send the additional pictures. Thank you so much for your assistant. Let me know if authentic please. She has been willing to send what is needed.
