Thank you in advance. I ready through all the Turkey posts I could find, and I feel like this creed serial number is just enough off-kilter to be legitimate but the spacing on the creed itself looks a little too cramped? I can't find an authenticated example, so I am asking for authentication. Thank you for your time :)

It's authentic. It's a Laurel bag #4112 from the early 90s, part of the Lightweights collection.

I bought this mahogany vintage Coach Ergo from a seller in Auckland, New Zealand for $580 NZD (dream bag!). Was devastated to find out it's a fake Coach as I'm not one to ever spend this much money on something like this :( Can someone please confirm this is the case? Apparently, the font is wrong for plant D according to Vintage Coach EyeCandy Facebook group. Thanks so much!

I'm so sorry but whoever let you know it's fake was correct.

Was the seller in Auckland an online seller? Is there a link to a listing?

Can you get a refund? If the seller isn't agreeable, perhaps you used a credit card to fund the purchase and can file a dispute.
 
Hello!
I purchased this little Coach bag a while back at a small local thrift store. It’s approximately 5” x 9” in size. I would love your opinion on it.
Thank you!

Hi!
  • FOR ITEMS NOT LISTED ONLINE:
    Item: Black pebbled leather duffelette
    Where purchased or how obtained: FB Marketplace (listing no longer up)
    Comments:
It's about 12" tall, 9" at the bottom and 14" at the top, and 3" in width. The seller said it was style 21373 but I can't find much about that online. The lack of serial number made me suspicious, but I think it was bought in 2016 when they didn't do that? I couldn't find the white tag either. Embossing seems a little shallow. Quality wise it seems nice to me but I'm definitely a beginner. Thanks for any insight :)
