Ok, here it is. I hope it's real. I already got some comp on it now.
Authentic.

Late last year my outlet was selling ;arge, purple, dotted op art sophias and some of them had the logo affixed upside down. They were not marked as "irregular" or "defective" or "final sale". They were mixed in with the perfect purple sophias and were being sold at the same price! When I brought it to the attention of a manager, she knew all about it and said it was a "special bag!" I was shocked! :wtf:

I sent an email to customer service and got a non-response that they would look in to it.

Here's the thread about it:
http://forum.purseblog.com/coach/i-am-concerned-coach-knowingly-selling-flawed-bags-652059.html

Thanks for the info. I looked at that thread and now I am fuming! What happened to "superior craftsmanship" and "commitment to enduring quality"?
I suspect that the "mistake" bags are all from one factory.

If I were the seller and if I'd purchased for resale, when I caught the error, I'd have returned the bag. I certainly wouldn't attempt to sell it and as a buyer, I wouldn't buy it either.

Sheesh! Sellers have enough problems selling authentic bags, both because of all the fakes as well as all the BS misinformation in so many guides. Selling this bag is looking for trouble!

The seller of the one on ebay said she didn't get it at a factory store. She bought it at Parisian Department Store, which is apparently upscale. You would think a department store would return defectives to Coach, rather than selling them. The Chinese Coach workers, who probably don't know which side is up, must have made so many with the upside down logos that it would have cost too much to scrap them or repair them, so somebody made a corporate decision to sell them to protect the bottom line.

Unfortunately, this lack of quality control is happening more and more frequently. There have been several threads about people seeing bags with upside down logos being sold in boutiques and department stores.

Coach Signature Stripe Diaper bag 15188
Seller: mybestfreindscloset22
Item # 360368037520

I've noticed this Coach diaper bag style has two numbers 15188 and 17443. Are they the same bag style?
Both are probably okay but both sellers should have pictures of the creed in their listings.
