You're correct in that it can't be authenticated without more pictures. If those are the pictures that "Legitmark" used to evaluate authenticity, that's not a dependable company, IMO.

I got this coach at goodwill and am trying to authenticate it. My main suspicion has to do with the font of the creed patch, but every listing I’ve seen of this purse being sold has the same font as well…
Height: 7in, length: 11.5in, depth: 3in, straps: 9in from top to bag.
Thanks for the help!

Hi there! I took a chance on the handle backpack and now that I have received it- the straps bother me- I do t think it’s authentic. I sent pics on March 20 and was told the creed isn’t clear enough. Can someone help me figure this out. The straps look wonky but the rest looks legit. Thank you to anyone willing to give thoughts….

Sorry, it's fake.

Hi all! Hope everyone is having a safe and wonderful Thursday!
I found a handle backpack 9992 that I am not sure if it’s authentic. The listing number is 256851622699 on eBay. Just wanted to check with you that are much more knowledgeable than I and I have heard these are heavily counterfeited. Thank you for your help!

The creed picture isn't much clearer. From what I can see, I think it is fake. More opinions are welcome.

 

[Craigers]

Sorry, it's fake.

Thank you. I didn't know until I received it because a creed patch photo wasn't posted. I was worried when I saw J8Y-9790 on the creed patch. I'll have to try to initiate a return. Do have any suggestions. Thanks again.

I didn't want to post this right into the Hall of Shame without being 100% positive, found while doing my usual trawl of Soho items on eBay. "7DH-" serial and the creed looks like it says "marxings."

It's authentic. I think it is an optical illusion that it looks like "marxings". The Olympics keychain was sold separately.

I've never tried to initiate a return with Goodwill online. Others on here have. Let us know if they are cooperative. I worry that they think their COA is absolute proof.

And that's why I asked the experts!! Thank you, whateve!
