That seller on Pishmark has relisted that bag as a dupe...Classy.

I wonder if they'll cancel/suspend her account for listing it multiple times even after it was removed.
 
It's authentic. Back when it was made, they didn't use computers to make sure that all parts came out exactly the same color. Different types of leather took the dye differently, which is why the trim doesn't match the bag exactly. There is also an anomaly in the creed number - where the dash should be, there is another digit. It's a compartment bag #9850 made late 80s or early 90s.
Thank you!

Item: Authenticated Vintage COACH messenger bag purse handbook red # o31-1022
Listing#: 194143392
Seller & site: Goodwill Industries of Greater Detroit
Link: https://shopgoodwill.com/item/194143392
Looks like a Red Station Bag - but has the Bean Bag error in the Creed. It was upside down in the listing so here is a pic right side up.
It looks authentic.

Thank you, it is hard to tell I have a fake bean bag creed bag I got years ago from a thrift and the red station bags creed looks nothing like it. But you know once bitten twice shy. Oh well, if real it will go for crazy money anyways.
The fake bean bag creeds generally don't get the number font right.
