Thank you so much for the heads up! Out of curiosity, how can you tell the Soho bag is a fake?

The creed is wrong. Specifically the plant code doesn't match what the creed wording says about where the bag was made.

Thank you for the explanation!

It's authentic. The style is "HML" large hobo, either "Hamilton" or "Hamptons" and afaik, the actual collection hasn't been determined as no one has been able to find a Coach catalog with the actual name.

ETA: I will add that my belief is that it's Hamilton and NOT Hamptons.

Just as "Sabrina" refers to boutique styles and "Ashley" is the similar MFF version, I believe that "Hamilton" is the MFF collection of similarly styled "Hamptons" bags.

Not an authenticator, am just here to say “wow, that’s not thrift pricing at all!” especially before the discount.

The bag is authentic.

I find Saver's prices are all over the place.

I was at one yesterday and saw a leather wristlet (MFF) in the locked case for $39.99. (At least it was authentic!) There was also a fake station bag in the same case for $79.99.

But I recently found a genuine Dooney for $5.99 on the regular rack.

You really have to know prices, know authenticity and be diligent.

It's gorgeous though pricey! I looked for one these for a long time. I love the embellishments especially in this color.
