This isn't a coco cabas, it's the black vinyl cabas per the photos.
He wants to do it outside of ebay b/c that saves him/her the selling fees. Pay with a credit card if you decide to do this. He's offering to send you the bag before you pay? That sounds very odd and unusal. The hologram sticker goes to an authentic bag. It's up to you how you want to proceed, but I'd be leery of these odd requests especially from a low feedback seller. I can't tell you what to do, but if the deal goes south you will have been a willing participant in breaking ebay's rules so you won't be able to complain to them if this guy sends you something other than an authentic bag (as shown in the photos.)

Comments: I know I had this autheticated, but Sophie advised me to ask the seller to take more pix to make sure the bag is indeed in his possession.
So I have attached more pictures. Kind of nervous cuz he has low feedback.
And to top that off, he wants to do it off of eBay.
But he is willing to send me the bag while I put the $ on hold through paypal till I have recieved it. Any opinions on that? Is that dumb? haha

Opps! I thought the vinyl cabas is part of the coco cabas..
Thanks pursepushin! I don't think I want to take the risk although I do want the bag badly. =\
I will give this a little more thought.

2. turn off flash

3. using flashlight or sunlight, point directly to the sticker

4. adjust lense to focus
Thanks Burberryprncess.. Will post pics when the seller send me additional pics. Have a good one :)

I was referring to the color of coco in the cabas line; I guess we were just talking at cross-names. No big deal. I will tell you that once I did buy a bag I wanted very much from a seller with 0 feedback. I asked her a lot of questions and got a lot of photos before I gave her the money. It turned out fine. You have to go with your gut on these things.

Someone else asked about this bag above and I stated that it is FAKE.
Please use our new posting format for future posts (see page 1 for details.)

Hi, I really wanted this bag but the seller stated on her listing that the authenticity card & dustbag was misplaced. Let me know your opinion first, I don't want to take the risk. Do you think this is authentic?
Thanks in advance
