It wasn't the extra dash I was concerned with but the "1" in the creed. There aren't enough pictures to tell if there are any other problems with the bag. Should she wait until she gets the bag?
I feel like a complete (insert your own word here), but after thinking about it all night, I decided to message the seller and end the transaction. I am just not comfortable with the probability of it being fake - while I know there's a good chance it's *not*, I'm still so new to this that it's sort of outside my comfort zone. I would rather walk away from a real bag then take a somewhat decent chance of getting a fake right now. If I had caught the extra dash in the creed tag I probably would not have bid anyways, but I messed up and didn't see that until the auction ended.
 
It's fake.

Coach didn't even make a scribble wallet in the style shown. They made a zip around style, #40420 and a coin key case, 40421.

The pattern is misaligned and improperly centered, the colors run together and the interior construction is wrong for any Coach wallet. The colors are wrong too.

These are the styles of the scribble wallets. Note the pattern placements/centering.

Here's a better picture of 40420:

Can we please see the inside part of the wallet showing the credit card slots and ID window? Thanks!

Going just from memory though, I don't think that fabric was ever used in a Checkbook wallet, only in a few smaller styles and in a Ziparound. It also seems odd that the C pattern isn't centered correctly. My first reaction is "fake" but I'd like to see the inside without the checkbook cover.

Been reading for a while, just registered. Would appreciate if someone could check out this Ebay listing for me.

If authentic, any info on the bag would be appreciated. Looking for a brown coach bag. I currently have a Navy colorblock Rory which I love. I just received a Floral Kara from FOS for summer, want a brown bag to add to my small collection of bags. Thank you!

The Slim Duffle Sac also looks ok.
