Good morning!
I awoke to a SNAD case today because my "Coach bag is fake since it was made in China."
Help! Please authenticate the listing.
Also, links to Hyacinth's awesome guides would be appreciated so the buyer can learn a bit more for the future.
THanks so much.

The bag is authentic from 2002.

Refer the buyer here. Coach is made in China, Mexico, Costa Rica, Vietnam, Turkey, India, Hungary and a plethora of other countries.

Although there are fakes made in China, this particular bag is genuine.
 
Hello Lovelies. Please help me authenticate

Comments: Never seen a green stewardess but that is why I have you guys!
Did you buy it? It's gorgeous! I've never seen a green one before either but I don't see any problems with it. They made other classic styles in green at that time so it makes sense they would have made a stewardess.

Comments: I bought a bag from this lady. It's an authentic skinny flight. She offered me this one as well but I don't believe it to be authentic. I told her I would get a second opinion. She sent additional pics and the serial is PIT-9953 if you can't see that in the listing. I have gotten/seen PIT bags in the past...none were authentic.

I can't read it in the picture either but based on her description of the number and the fact that the prefix has been seen on fakes, I'd say it's fake.

P1T or PIT is an invalid prefix, making the bag fake.
 
I just received this briefcase and I would like opinions please.
My initial concern was the indentations on the backplate where the tabs are, but I did compare to some other listings on ebay and now think that this particular style of (squared plate) turn lock DID have indentations.
Second is the poor stitching on the leather piece behind the turn lock - but...
you can see from my pics that this was obviously crudely repaired- hence the sloppy stitches?
The creed numbers seem a little large to me?
Maybe I am just being paranoid but would like reassurance either way.

I'm posting the listing, and also adding my own pics.

THANK YOU BB!
The buyer was very apologetic about being so hasty to make judgment and has closed the case.
Appreciate it so much!!
