I can't figure this one out. Nothing screams fake to me so based on no other evidence I'm going to go with authentic.

I have a question about where Tory Burch is made. I own a couple items that were purchased at Nordstrom or at the outlet that say made in China. I recently purchased a York passport continental wallet that says made in Vietnam on the tag. The wallet looks legit but I wasn't aware they were being made in Vietnam too. It made me question the authenticity, should I be worried?

Made in Vietnam is fine for the York line and certain shoes as well.

Hi..
I've read the rules here..and i know i don't have 25 posts yet since i don't really talk much in any other forums too.

I have been eyeing a tory burch robinson two ways crossbody for a long time..and found the preloved one that is very good deal (the seller is from instagram).
And since the counterfeit ones are flooding the market, especially in my country, I'm in a desperate position to know is this authentic one..
I hope you can help me.

Here are the details:
Style no: 11169702
Item name: Tory Burch Robinson Two Ways bag
Color: Black GHW

The pictures are in the attachment..
If in case you need more pictures to help you authenticate this bag, please do inform me.
Thank you so much in advance..

Aaww..really? It's a fake one? I'm soooo sad..
Can you help me point out which "thing" that make it fake?
I'm really clueless and need to explain it to seller to get my refund (because i've already bought the bag)..
Please.please..and thank you so much for helping me autheticate it in the first place..

Hi @harlem_cutie thank you for being soo helpful, just a little update, I've informed my seller about this problem, and she already agreed to refund my money.
It's just that i'm still curious, which point that is very crucial that says this bag is fake. I'm sorry, not trying to be pushy, but if that point is something that you don't want all the scammers to know, then let it be.
I'll just come back here, in case I need your help in authenticating any other TB bag...
Thank you sooo much. GBU

@fab2fab thank you for your kind response, i tried to believe that mine is authentic, since I thought it's very well made, neat and all, but for this time, I think i need to believe in @harlem_cutie

The tags are wrong, also the lining is off. Normally, I would say it was poor QC and ended up in an outlet but this has too many red flags to ignore. The Robinson line has many, many fakes so I'm always extra cautious with them.

I am auper bummed! I got the bag and LOVE it but something seems off. The guy had good ratings and has a return policy so I thought it'd be real? It doesn't have a clear tag.... is that odd? And should there be engraving? The middle pocket is padded and not attacked. And there was wrapping on one tag but he said it was used? I'm worried he posted a real bag and sent me a fake? Who knows... I'm hoping I'm wrong bc it's gorgeous. He had three of them listed.

second link looks good but come back and post when you receive it. It's harder to authenticate since it doesn't have engraved hardware.

Hardware is not always engraved, and the padded middle compartment is not attached to the bottom. The piping looks good though, I would say it's ok.

I agree with @fab2fab, this looks fine to me. Yorks are being discontinued, at least the current version, so the seller could have sourced this from anywhere. My best guess would be a customer return to a retail location as that would explain the partial wrapping.

It's got a couple of very minor cracks where the buckle meets it (doesn't look bad and doesn't look like it'll tear fast) that's how I was able to get him down low. I use my bags for a bit then put them up so I'm not worried about it. Just made me think maybe they discounted it and he grabbed it? You guys know more then me! Lol

Why do some have engraving and some don't? And do Yorks not have clear tags?

I can comment on the engraving, and this is a pure speculation on my part and my opinion, not a fact that I know: speaking from 10+ years in cost accounting for consumer manufacturing companies, it would be more expensive to source engraved hardware. So my speculation is that the change is for cost cutting purposes.
