I got offered this Leather bag. Can anybody tell me anything about it? And if it's an authentic SS bag?

"Much that once was, is lost. For none now live who remember it."
As the others have stated, an absurd stamp.
To be sure, there was an SS garrison in Arolsen. That is not the issue. The issue is the nature of the stamp, itself.
I assume someone came up with this stamp to "gin up" common items as SS. Arolsen had several high profile SS units including Germania so it figures that some faker would try to capitalize on that history. This is why I don't collect SS. NH
As has been said above, "service + city name" is a nonsensical marking.
Also, note that the fakers weren't even aware that "Waffen-SS" is hyphenated.
