This girl continues to list fakes. I can see her being duped once if she bought a fake by mistake but when she has more bags that are questionable you know she's dirty.

AFAIK, Etsy is like Poshmark -- unless you get an honest seller who ends her own listing when informed that she has a fake, listings don't get removed when reported.

In this case, a little birdie told me that ChiChiDivaVintage was made aware that the bag is fake but clearly, she doesn't care about ripping off a buyer for over $100.

You are correct and this is yet another example of an Entrupy mistake.

Goodwill has been using Entrupy for their "authentications" but with Entrupy's record of being wrong (probably) 50% of the time, Goodwill has been selling a LOT of fakes with inaccurate COAs.

(And I now have another set of photos to add to my "Entrupy Mistakes" folder!)

ETA: Goodwill really needs to rethink using Entrupy. I can't count how many Goodwill/Entrupy mistakes have been posted just in the Coach subforum! And I don't want to think about how many other mistakes this artificial intelligence company has made.

LOL! They don't know how accurate "artificial" intelligence really is to describe themselves!

For anyone who's reporting
That "K" plant code has never been used for any USA plant. The K code was only used for a China plant that didn't even open until 1999. The year code in the fake is for 1994.

Another HUGE red flag is that style number 9946 as shown in the serial number belongs to a Nicholas DRAWSTRING, which as the name says was a drawstring bag, while this fake looks like it's pretending to be a City Bag which has a Flap, not a drawstring.

There are other problems with this City Bag wannabee too, like the strap mounting, a strap with the buckle almost in the center of the strap instead of the 12 to 15 inches from the end used on genuine Coaches, so when someone's carrying it, the buckle sits uncomfortably right on top of their shoulder, and the base, but the above mistakes are the biggies.

Thank you Hyacinth and Been Burned. I reported it using the verbiage from Hyacinth. Hopefully they end the auction since there is a bidder.

Thanks!

I wasn't quick enough to get the sellers name as it disappeared soon after I reported it when I was trying to copy the link from Mercari. I was able to grab a screenshot of this horrible creed, so I figured I'd post it as an example. It's the worst creed that I've encountered so far.

I don't mind at all! I knew immediately when I saw the bag that it was fake. Nothing was centered. I wish I could've gotten more screenshots.

Thank you for sharing all of those. LOL! Especially the Korean ones. I have never seen any Korean ones before. I still can't quit giggling over "The variations in the chair are characteristic of full craw leather " That's priceless!
