It looks ok to me too, and her other Coach items also look ok

What specific part of the creed are you concerned about not matching? If it's just the first digit, that's not a problem - that's the code for the month the bag was made. If it's bcause one looks "puffier" than the other, someone familiar with that style bag needs to take a look. They were both made in the same factory just a month apart so you'd think the creeds would be identical.

It may just be the quality of the pics, but the script on the creed looks smaller & duller on the 2nd bag. And yes, it does look puffier to me also. Maybe it's ok though?

Thanks for your help on the bag! This one is from a different seller & looks ok to me too--what do you think? Should I also ask for a picture of the creed? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=320259325534

Ok, so I bought this scribble a while back with the help of margaritamix [thanks again!] but now I was having buyers remorse and I just dont love it, so I put it on craiglist. This girl emails me and is like "That is NOT authentic" I told her it most certainly WAS authentic. Let me get some second opinions please!

Yes, definitely ask for a creed pic. The rest of the seller's completed Coach listings look ok.

Default Please authenticate this...PLEASE
Please take a look at this and tell me your thoughts...Seems a little good to be true, but I want to make sure.

http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/clo/706795974.html

I emailed the lady, who was very responsive and sent me via email another picture and a picture of the creed, which seems very authentic, but my concern is that she is selling it soo cheap. I asked if she would ship, (shes 2 hours away) and she said yes and said she can accept money via paypal, google, or money order/cashiers check. She then sent me a paypal invoice.

If I go ahead and pay via paypal, and it turns out to be a fake, am I protected for a refund via paypal or is that only if you get it through ebay? HELP!!!

The photos are really too small to see any details, but if Margaritamix said it was ok, then it's ok. WHY did the girl say it wasn't real? Did she give you any details or is she just one of those who believes some "rule" she's read in an online "buying guide?"

If she's worried about the C's on the right and left sides not being mirror images, they WEREN'T mirror images on the Scribble Hobos. If that's why she thinks it's fake, tell her to look at the other ones on Ebay, or better yet, this one right from Coach's archives:

All she said was "This is NOT authentic" ??? I said YES it is.

I will try to make the pics bigger.

Do you mean that one color lining seems lighter than the other? That could just be from differences in lighting.

I'm familiar with the second seller and would never hesitate to buy from them.
