Thanks!!
That's usually true but there are still plenty of fake leather bags, including the older "classic" Coaches from before 2000. The Signature bags are cheaper to make, but with either kind you really have to know what to look for. Please be sure to ask the posters here to look at any Coach item you're thinking of bidding on.

and whether it's authentic, while you're at it. :)
The style # is 2764 but it's hard to say if it's genuine with such small photos, although it probably is.

I bid on this bag (and won) on a whim, and now I'm worried that I made a mistake. Can anyone tell me if it's authentic? Thanks. http://************/64lvfn

do these look legit? I emailed for more photos, and should get more of the black one tomorrow.

what is the rule with leather.. do most leather have a signature lining or does it depend?

thanks again!!

Default Authenticate for a newbie please :)

can anyone authenticate this? I'm new-ish to Coach, and am not familiar with this style, since it doesn't seem current, but I like it.

It looks like one of the limited edition evening bags with the white dust bag. Very cute! I am not 100% because of the metal Coach hangtag. That doesn't look right to me. Maybe Hyacinth can confirm?

I am neither one, but I think it looks fine. I saw these frames in green at TJ Maxx a couple of months ago on clearance for $19.99. These look just like those and I don't really see anything off.

The case and cloth aren't Coach though. The seller states that, so as long as you are aware of that and are cool with it, I think you are fine.

How about this one? This one has the scarf. I'm trying to win one for my mom and I'd rather it come with the scarf. TIA for all your help.

I'd really like to see a closer photo of the creed but other than that, I don't see any problems, the dustbag is one of the limited edition bags and Coach used metal hangtags for some of its bags. Metal would probably look much better that leather on a Lurex bag.
