Hi, how about this one. It has the questionable prefix J8Y.

I don't believe that listing is authentic. It has the strange J8Y font and prefix and the border in the corners (esp. lower left) below the serial number.

The same seller, orange-yellow also sold this one with the infamous J8H prefix.

I agree it is fake. I also see the borders on the serial number.

I was just about to submit this for authentication.
I purchased it in a group and will be asking the seller to refund me for
the bag, so I wanted confirmation since
I felt it was fake.
I've found that the J8Y prefix is almost always fake - at least I have not
seen an authentic one.

Do you think these two are okay?
What is the black one called, or the style number if you know?
(I found the little "anchor" impression on the trigger clasp!)
THanks mucho!

You can't base authenticity solely on this, but the coach stamp on the hang tag is crooked, I have never seen that before, and that it is big mistake for coach to make! But wait for other opinions! Good Luck
 

It's hard to tell just from those photos. Even if it doesn't have a creed patch we'd still want to see the inside and what the lining looks like, and also the inside of the price tag showing the name, style number and factory codes. If you can get clear photos of those elements, we can take a closer look.

In this case, I'd definitely want to see the inside of the tag as much as I want to see the interior of the bag. It looks like a MFF embossed top handle pouch, but I don't recommed

Although I think it's rare to see fake factory tags, this one appears (in the first picture) that the tag is blank on the inside, unlike as I believe it should be.
 
Can someone look at this one? TIA

It's authentic.
The first one looks fine.

The second one from Bonz seller designerdiscouheaven needs a picture of the creed.
 
I am re-uploading all 4 photos in one post after a kind member guide me through the steps. I bought this Madison Phoebe Small Leather in black with light gold. Please help me to authenticate. Thanks!

I already told you I thought it was authentic here: http://forum.purseblog.com/coach-shopping/authenticate-this-coach-818914-641.html#post26021972

If you bought it on ebay, you should always post a link to the auction. It helps us to evaluate the seller as well as the bag.
