Comments: I just received this bag and it just seems... off? I'm now concerned that I bought a 'good' fake. Were there any style variations on this bag? Now that I'm looking closely... the fact that there is a zipper pocket inside and bottom stitching has me very concerned. Thanks for the help.

I'm sorry, it's fake.

Thanks so much and also to Beenburned and whateve! It wasn’t cheap but still a deal imo and I wouldn’t have had the confidence to buy it without knowing I could double back here.
I can recall way back, going to the Coach store in the mall and really admiring the Rogues, especially the sequined ones, but just not being able to pull the trigger, even when they went 50% off.
The irony is that the consignment store I check out in town gets all kinds of Coach and occasionally vintage Coach. I feel like it’s my best hope for a Pony Express or Courier so that’s why I wanted to get there today. When I saw the chalk pebble leather, 1941, honey lining, ox blood handles and brass hardware it was a perfect beautiful storm

I'm late to responding to this post but I took some time last night to scrutinize and compare the pictures of the bag you received to the bag that was listed on Depop by seller penny2005.

I can't authenticate (with certainty) either the bag in the listing or the bag you received but if this were my own purchase, I'd return it for a FULL refund or if a return and refund were refused, I'd dispute the charge.

The bag you received is DEFINITELY NOT the same bag as shown in the listing.

There were minor and subtle differences in various areas of the bag that could possibly be attributed to lighting, angle, etc. but the difference in the number of stitches down the sides of the creeds are different on the bag shown in the listing vs. the one you received.

Wow, I didn’t think to look at that, thank you so much for your time and knowledge! I will definitely try to return/refund.

I think I bought a fake at an "upscale" consignment shop in Wisconsin--the kind of place where bags are treated like gold, and you're only given a few moments to inspect before you purchase. I fear it is the dreaded "Equestrian Drawstring" with the H7B prefix. I want to return, and just need verification that the bag is indeed a fake.

Approx 10" wide, 10.5" high, 3" deep. Interior has one hanging pocket with creed on it. Poor stitching on drawstring ends. Bag feels a bit stiff, but doesn't look like it's been conditioned.

Thanks VERY MUCH in advance for your help with this.
