The seller needs to either brush up on her math or on her proof-reading skills.

I missed the first listing but I found that the seller, deedeesdeals88 had previously listed the bag. There's no creed photo in this listing nor does this one mention Korea so I'm not sure how you knew it was made in Korea. (In fact, the item specifics state that it's US made.)

And in case that listing poofs too, here are the pictures and description:

MEDIUM SIZE BAG-7 BY 10 1/2 INCHES

THE INSIDE IS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH ONLY A FAINT SIGNS OF USE AND NO SMELLS​
I PURCHASED THIS AT A THRIFT STORE THEN PUT IT AWAY IN A CLOSET AND FORGOT ABOUT IT. (I FORGOT BECAUSE I PURCHASED SEVERAL COACH BAGS THAT DAY) THIS WAS AT LEAST 8 YEARS AGO,THE RECEIPT HAS THE DAY OF ORIGINAL PURCHASE ON 09/30/05. 2005 OR 1905? SO EITHER THE BAG WASN'T OUT ON THE STREET VERY LONG OR IT IS IN GREAT SHAPE FOR A BAG BEING 19 YEARS OLD!​

That is the same item but the one I was looking at had a picture of the creed and it was a 5 digit number, 101 something. It said Made in Korea.

I posted this in the hall of shame but it is still listed, though the auction has ended(twice).
Unfortunately I bought it without looking closely because the price was so low I jumped on the buy it now.
Then after checking it out I realized it was a fake - so I asked the seller to cancel the transaction
and the reason.
She just relisted it anyway, insisting all her Coach bags are real - and someone else bought it.
Please report it (if you deem it a fake of course!) It is still showing as awaiting payment in my acct- otherwise I will end up paying for it and getting it and THEN having to file a dispute, which is ridiculous.
THANK YOU!

These are the factory versions of this style. Maybe you think they look different because they are missing the horse and carriage?

Yes, because they are missing the carriage in the logo.
Because I have seen the same model in stores with a different logo.
But I'm not sure if coach ever came out this in the logo without the carriage?

Definitely fake - no serial number, cheap thin hardware, the strap is thin, cheap and badly sewn, the lining looks like a washcloth, the creed stitching is sloppy, there are run-together words in the creed, the font used in the creed's Coach emblem is completely wrong, the C pattern in the second picture isn't centered, the strap buckles are much too wide for the straps and not a style used by Coach, and the strap mountings shouldn't be falling apart like that. The style is fake too and was never made by Coach.

THESE SHOES HAVE TO BE FAKE TOO - and I don't know a thing about Coach shoes but these look like K-Mart $20 specials.

What about her Completed "Chanel"?

I'm kind of enamored with this bag ...

Item Name: Unsure ... seen it labeled as a field bag or messenger bag but I don't know if that's correct.
Dimensions (in inches): height=7.5, width=8.75, depth=2, strap drop=19.5

Looking for authentication and name of this one!
