Sellers are supposed to say in the listing that the item's authentic even though eBay requires everything listed to BE authentic. Ebay's just covering its butt against legal action.

And I've found that the more emphasis a seller gives to the word "authentic" in an auction, the more likely it is that the item's a piece-of-trash fake. The word "authentic" in the top line of a listing is a big red flag.

Are Planners/Agendas faked at all? I haven't found anything regarding this in any posts. If so what are the telltale signs to look for?

Can an item be an authentic Coach if the words on the creed aren't spaced all that well like these ones? These are both from Bleeker leather large flaps.

Are both bags the same color? If they are, the wording on both creeds should be the same. Can you post both auction numbers or links?

How ironic. The first link has been removed from eBay, but the 2nd one is still there.

I have a question. Why don't the top handle pouches from the outlets have a creed patch on the inside? Aren't they considered purses, too?

No, pouches are considered accessories most of the time, and often don't have creed patches or serial numbers.

Yes, some styles do. I do not know which one exactly, I am sure someone here knows that.

In fact, sometimes Coach calls them makeup pouches/cases.

From what I know the signature stripe totes have the gold patch and a lot of the legacy bags.

Thanks! bought a couple of signature stripe purses off eBay and they came with gold creed, so was a bit worried. Other than that, the purses look ok.
