Is it common for fakes to have legitimate looking tags and even care booklets?

However, I have this item. I purchased it at a boutique before the actual release, so it's highly unlikely to have been a return. I didnt get any of the outer plastic packaging since sales associates usually remove that. But I also did not have it come in a gift box. Ive had items before come with designated gift boxes so I have my doubts that the gift box is particular to this item. The inside was packed tightly with tissue paper as well.
My cherries are aligned a little more than an inch from the zipper. The lining should have white cupcakes with oval tops and a base with straight lines except where it cups the oval. It is hard to tell from your photo whether they are cupcakes or abstract shapes. (I know the smallness and odd shape of the item and the reflective lining make it difficult to capture.)
The tag on the left uses the wrong font for KS tags. And the numbers on the serial code arent aligned like my tag. Also KS boutique items will have a quirky saying, this tag does not.
My inner tags do not overlap each other, and the white tag with product code does not have any black mark at the bottom like the left.
I hope this helps in your assessment.![]()
Found this cool bag at a thrift store and i was wondering if it was real.
