Please help me with antique tribeca gold question...
I bought an antique gold tribeca tote from outlet last week, but I am getting concerned about its authenticity. Ii it possible that I bought a fake from outlet? The creed inside the bag is totally unreadable, I am not sure if that is because of the shiny patent leather but I have never seen one like this before. For you ladies who own this bag is that how the creed looks like?
Although unlikely, it's possible that they took a return of a fake at the outlet, but the only way to confirm or deny is to see pictures.

Please post clear pictures of the front, back, sides, hardware, interior and the creed. Use the macro function, especially for the creed. You might have to experiment with lighting and flash to get good pics.
 
OK, ladies...I am thinking I konw which way the answers will go, based on what I have gleaned over the past couple of days, but...

Thanks! I actually wondered if it was supposed to have a signature lining. I appreciate your help. This is a great forum!
This lining is correct in the listing above. There may have been an older version of a similar bag with signature lining.

In the wake of recently buying a fake bag on eBay I am inspecting and comparing all my bags. I have a similar question to one asked a little while ago. I have a brown patchwork bag F0793-40914 which I bought at a COACH Factory store a couple years ago and everything looks absolutely perfect about it, except for the creed. The stitching around the creed isn't quite perfect, the words and spacing are all good but it looks a little "puffy" and is hard to read. The serial number is spaced funny too, and the o after the N is more in the center of the N than at the top. My question is, should I suspect this bag based only on the creed being a little off? Like I said everything else looks and feels very genuine about it.

Thanks ladies.

P.S. I just received the fake bag that I accidentally bought, and have reported to eBay. In person, it is the fakest thing you have ever seen!! The seller is still sticking to his story that it is genuine too. So he is either naive, or a jerk. Ebay isn't being very helpful either--they are recommending that I ship the purse back for a refund, not even addressing the issue of it being a fake. I haven't decided if I am going to burn it or ship it back to him with a long list of everything that is wrong with it.

Again, I am so very greatful to have found this site. It (you) will save me from a lot of disappointment.
