Was there anything specific that looked fake to you? It would help if you could point it out. I'm not familiar with this style but nothing obvious is jumping out at me.

Nothing in particular. I just wasn't familiar with the style and thought it was a fake Parker or something. Then when I saw that the seller had a bunch of other designer bags, I figured it was probably authentic but wanted to double-check here with you all. :smile1:

Thanks to cz22 for authenticating.

They DO make diaper bags, just keep looking. But there are also a LOT of fakes. And many fakes sellers do claim their bags are authentic - sellers can and do LIE.

And if you paid $30 for a bag in the Bahamas, it's not a real Coach, which I'm sure you've realized. I hope you're not still using it. Carrying fakes just provides free advertising for an industry that ignores envronmental regulations, ignores laws written to protect factory workers, employs illegal child labor which is basically slave labor, and funds street gangs, organized crime and international terrorism.

The making and selling of fakes is not a victimless crime, no matter what its apologists want the buying public to think. Many people think all they're doing is saving a little money, but it's not that simple.

The bag I bought in the Bahamas was for a friend, which I knew was a knock off. But I will honestly admit I didn't know the harm of buying a fake until a couple of weeks after I got back. To this day I haven't received or purchased a fake. The funny thing is, within the hour of me posting about is the bag a fake or not, the seller removed the item. Weird huh?

I don't see any problems with it, but a close, clear picture of the creed would help. And please follow the posting format in the first post of this thread. It makes things so much easier!
