I think that this style bag is SOOO cute but wondered if these might be real or not. I have seen this bag IRL at the TN outlet back in Jan but it was in all black. I think that it looks absolutely darling in the khaki but wanted to make sure it actually came in either gold or white trim. Also - anyone own this bag and like it?? Thanks ladies!!

The one from the second seller is DEFINITELY fake, and I'm not sure about the first one either.

What do you think? (Bought on ebay) I found it on the DD, but I understand that doesn't necessarily mean it's authentic (??)

There are a few problems with the creed patch, and the few details I can see don't look right either. Were these the pictures from the auction? And can you post the auction number or link, and a picture or pictures that show the hangtag and one end of the strap where it attaches to the bag. The ones here are too out of focus to see any details.

And can you look closely and tell me how the word "States" in the creed patch is spelled?

Thanks!

"States" is spelled "STATES"

Sorry about my poor photos. I think these may be alittle clearer. Thanks!

I have this bag...it's from 2000. The handle is stiff and stands straight up. the closure is magnetic and forms almost a potato chip look to it, if that makes sense. See if you can get a picture of the creed and I'll look at mine to compare. Based on the pic on ebay now, I'd steer clear.

Yes, A potato chip describes it perfectly! I purchased this bag on ebay. My camera is not very good and I can't seem to get a clear photo of the creed, but I'll try again.

PS. The No is M9D 9180

Well, it seems to be a genuine Whitney Hobo bag, although the extra dash in the creed after the "No" still worries me a little, and in the original photo it looked like "States" was misspelled. But it's not the kind of bag that probably would have been counterfeited, because of the unusual way the strap attaches to the bag.
