Hi! This is posted in a Facebook group a friend of mine admins, and none of us are really good with the older bags. These are all the photos I have - can you take a look and let me know what you think? Thanks!

Actually, if you look at the second (middle) picture posted by Canderson22, it does show Goodwill's watermark.

And IMO, it looks like the person in the private Facebook group wasn't too honest.

She carefully cropped the Goodwill watermarks before submitting them to Canderson.

If I adminned this group, I'd ban the member! And thank YOU Catbird for recognizing the pictures!

Can anyone tell me what the name of this bag is? It was purchased from the Coach outlet in Sept 2015, but I don't know the name of it.

Hey I just got this at a Thrift Store cheap and I was wondering if it was real! The label says Coach 12963
Thanks!

It's fake.

I don't know whether your thrift store claims not to allow returns but it's illegal for them (and anyone else) to sell fakes and they should take it back. Even if they don't offer a refund, they should allow an exchange.

I also have a couple of bags in my possession for authentication.

Coach Pink Leather....?
No creed patch or style number but perhaps this falls into category of smaller items without creed patch? I would guess MFF. (sorry for the poor lighting-- it's not this dark but rather a nice medium pink)
Measures 12" long x 6 1/2" tall x 3 1/2" deep

 

[missbaltimore]

And this one;

Coach Swagger 9820? Color Tabac?
Measures 11 3/4" long x 7 1/4" tall x 4" deep.

It's not MFF. If it was MFF, it would have a dot on the label. I remember these from a few years ago but I can't remember what it was called. I don't see any problems. More opinions are welcome.

Great-- thanks for the quick response. And thanks also for the information on the label i.e. dot vs no dot-- I didn't know that. As a friend of mine likes to say, every day is a school day!

Remember to include the seller's name in your request. It helps later to do a search to see if the seller has a record of selling fakes. The seller's name is antiquer1283

I am not 100% sure about this one. The font doesn't match any I have in my files for that time period. I'd be curious to see the back of the turnlock. Do you have it in your possession?

More opinions are welcome.

edited to remove erroneous comment about inside seams.

And finally this one;

The Willis is fine.
