All 3 of the listings you've posted are authentic however I have a comment on one of the sellers, For the Love of Bags.

Be careful of her listings as some are confusing and some are fake. (The following examples are not necessarily all the confusing or fake listings. I didn't go through all!)

Confusing:
Listings show many bags, none with enough pictures to authenticate any of the bags and it's unclear whether the sale is for the lot:

Thank you! I'll know to avoid her in the future, just in case.
 
Hi, I probably had this bag authenticated years ago. It's been up on my ebay listing for 3 years! Today, it got marked as counterfeit, and removed. Can you take a look and let me know what you think? I think I got it on shopgoodwill in 2021.

It's authentic, made in 2014 and there's NOTHING wrong with it.
Thank you! Here's what the removal notice said: "This determination was made using automation or artificial intelligence. This came to our attention through automated detection." I was looking on ebay at my oldest listings and revising. This one, I moved what was to be the main photo image to one I thought was more appealing. I didn't add any new images, just re-ordered them!

Their "intelligence" isn't so smart!
 
Would love to get this one checked before I consolidate shipping.
The crackling on the creed is making me feel a bit iffy about my purchase.

I am very curious if this is authentic please, I've seen some of these bags with the emblem below the line near the bottom and some above and I'm not sure why that is so I thought maybe this was not authentic. Thank you very much for your help

The bag is fine.

I don't know anything about "moderator approval" but your request was made after 11 PM last night (my time) so I didn't see it until this morning.
