thats exactly what i thought. i'm the one who posted that auction in the first place,
as an example of a bad creed. for me, the creed is the first thing i look at when trying to authenticate a bag. i'm sticking with my way,
because in EVERY single fake bag i've ever seen, the creed is off.
the "o" and the stitching are always off.
i don't see any reason that a bag that is being newly made in china should have a part of the stamping off.
it would seem that a stamp that matches all authentic coaches would be sent to the factory.
i might be able to see the stitching being a bit off, since it is a new factory and all,
but definitely not the stamping on the creed. that should be 100% aligned and matching up to all other creeds.
JMHO. :shame:

See, that's what I thought too. Is it possible to get a definitive answer on this question? Experts, anyone? What is the answer to this?

Here is what I found, this was in the "Answers to Authenticity Questions" Thread. The actual post was by "OurLittleSecret" on Page 8. Sorry, I can't seem to figure out how to give a link to this particular post, so I'll have to copy and paste.

Is this definately the case? Therefore, the bag we were looking at before, the O in No. is too big? I thought I had it all figured out, but now I'm really confused.

I have a question about the o. Is the o always that small. The o is the same size as the N on this bag. Are the corners of the bag suppose to line up in any way? This looks real but it is made in Turkey. There no periods at the end of the sentences. Do the creeds made in Turkey look different than the ones in China? They have good feedback but I am not sure. Does anyone have this bag and can compare it? Thanks for any info.

Hi Janice, I have this bag but in the black/black signature... The bag is absolutely identical EXCEPT for the creed. On mine, the O is definitely a major difference, and the spacing is different on the creed. You would think this would be the same? AND mine was made in CHINA. Oh, and mine DOESN't have the Coach stamp on the
"ring" (not sure what to call it.... So, I guess I can't tell you with absolute certainty that your bag is a fake.. but certainly leaning that way. BTW, I bought my bag at the outlet for less than he's selling it for... HTH... but probably not.:sad:

It's AMAZING how authentic this bag looks. Minus all the details you mentioned. The "made in Turkey" was a weird, I don't think I've seen a creed with that before.

thats so weird. i thought uncledearest ALWAYS had authentic stuff?
maybe even he got fooled on this one?

upon further inspection, the embossing on the hangtag is a little bit unclear at points. [2nd picture after the "award"]
its hard to tell what the stitching is like around the creed, because its black thread.
now i'm not sure about this one....geez. if it is fake, it definietley the best i've seen yet. thats scary.
that "o" just doesn't sit right with me.

any experts? :shrugs:
