This creed doesn't state (as many Korean fakes do) that it's a "good bag," but this one is the BEST!

The creed on the fake bag has 3564 as the style number. This is what 3564 is SUPPOSED to look like:

Question, putting aside the fact the creed on the bag on the left indicates it's fake based on info in the Guides here, for the round bag, the creed is imprinted on the bottom? I don't think I've seen that before. It makes sense for a small bag.
Side note, the last time I reported a bag on the GW online for a TX agency, supplying the link here, I recieved a polite thank you and the auction continued on for the bag to sell for over $80 : /
The bag on the right (round base) is authentic. The bag with the J8P prefix is fake.
The whole listing should be ended!
And that's why I'd never buy from an online Goodwill store/listing.
Although their listings state that they're "posted in accordance with shopgoodwill.com's policy prohibiting the sale of counterfeit items," and to contact them with "any questions or concerns about the authenticity of this item," it's impossible to contact them without signing up and giving them all your personal information except ss. number!
I have an account. When I attempted to report a listing in the past, it seemed like my only option was to open a ticket and contact the individual GW agency directly, and I already indicated the response (and lack of action). Since this listing indicates it was, cough, cough, authenticated, I imagine they will do nothing if contacted.
Yup, buyer beware. Lurkers, you are warned.
The posts above were posted on the authentication thread in March, 2019 when NOT RECOMMENDED shopgoodwill DOT com listed a fake that was "authenticated" by Entrupy.And if THAT doesn't tell you about how untrustworthy those Entrupy "authentications" can be, nothing will.
A Google search should have found plenty of info on that fake J8P- serial prefix. And the idjits couldn't even manage to put the right style number on the "authentication" form, it should be 9139. Let's save this one for posterity. Click on the thumbnails.

and a GENUINE J8P- serial number bag from the Costa Rica plant which is the ONLY plant location that ever used that prefix with its "P" plant code in September (month code J) of 1998:

She already sold that Korean fake once (on July 20) but I assume the buyer returned the fake, thus the relisted item.
Good luck trying to get the Japanese sellers' listings removed!Ugh another fake rogue. One of the things that I used to find wrong along with many other incorrect details has now been corrected by the counterfeit makers. They are now using the correct orientation kisslock hardware but I'm not fooled.
