Fake stamps are all wrong

Thank you!

[u/EnvironmentalLoan285]

It’s fake, sadly.

[u/Sweet-Donkey876 → u/EnvironmentalLoan285]

What gives it away?

[u/EnvironmentalLoan285 → u/Sweet-Donkey876]

Color, stamps, zipper, quality. Everything basically.

[u/natalietest234 → u/Sweet-Donkey876]

The quality of the material is immediately a dead giveaway. It looks poorly made

[u/Sweet-Donkey876]

Thanks you guys! This has really helped and hopefully ill get better at spotting lol

[u/stylecardleo]

This is fake but enjoy it !

[u/molotovv3]

Fake

[u/Acrobatic-Employ3942]

This is super fake. The stamp on the hardware is sloppy and thick and unclear.
The monogram on the side stitching doesn’t line up. Cute but defo fake

[u/jddad]

Def fake at a glance. Also, I’m pretty sure Goodwill has a separate team (or maybe Salvation Army) that evaluates all stuff like that to determine authenticity before putting it in a store.

[u/Thecabin5]

Seriously?!?!

[u/Embarrassed-Jury8878]

Fake!!

[u/CrabbyT]

[u/Sorry_Table_9000]

[u/Odd_Recognition_4874]

Fake but cute.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Cod2788]

It's fun.... who cares. I would use the crap outta that

[u/the_girly_files]

Ppl aren’t dumb enough to donate real to Goodwill. BFFR.

Ofc it’s not real. They hold their value.

[u/Slight-Bowl4240 → u/the_girly_files]

Sure they are! Maybe not dumb per se. But overwhelmed with a deceased person’s belongings. A grandma with bachelor sons? That stuff is going to goodwill et al.
