Your concern is warranted. The bag appears fake. The creed matches the font of other fakes I've seen, and doesn't match the font of authentic creeds from that plant. The back of the turnlock (shown in the listing) indicates it isn't the kind Coach used. The proportions of the bag seem off.

Thank you very much whateve! I've initiated a return request...it's a bit discouraging to see a fake mini willis in person, but it's also good to know that many fakes still can't compare with the real thing.

You're welcome. I'm sorry you are having to deal with this. An authentication prior to purchase would have saved you that ordeal.

Yes I realize that now...will do in the future! Thx again, honestly I didn't think the mini willis would be faked, or at least it'd be pretty obvious, so this'll be a learning lesson for me!

Item number: 331771643804
seller: fairmount4
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/AUTHENTIC-C...643804?hash=item4d3f21879c:g:LnsAAOSwHaBWjK0G

The font doesn't look the same as others from the same year and plant. I'm pretty sure this is fake but would like other opinions. TIA.

Creed from fairmount4 's listing:
s-l1600.jpg


Another same year and plant. Notice the underscore difference, the placement of the "N" in No. and overstamps. Font is slightly different too, I believe:
s-l1600.jpg


s-l1600.jpg

And this listing has the same prefix but looks very different from the listing in question:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gorgeous-VI...699020?hash=item2362475b8c:g:pp0AAOSwgyxWUoNi

But the creed is different from the blue one:

The font is wrong. If you look at the picture of the pocket, do you think the zipper goes all the way across? There could be end pieces of leather, a frame, around the zipper. It's hard to tell.

I can't see the ends. It's as though she purposely cropped the pictures so the ends of the pocket don't show.

I agree with you and Whateve, the font is wrong. I'd also love to see the strap where it's clipped to the bag and the other half of the magnetic snap.
