Reported again! Do you know how to report an etsy listing? I can't seem to figure it out.

https://www.etsy.com/listing/385516950/coach-brown-legacy-shoulder-bag-1990s

Seller: SheSellsResale

Says original owner in the listing... She should know it's fake then, right? [emoji23]

ABSOLUTELY. Of course she could just be a chronic liar and cheat. Like when she says "No rips tears or smells. Comes from smoke free home. Clean inside and outside. Interior tag is worn otherwise good condition." And the inside pocket looks like complete SHYTE.

Sometimes we like to give someone selling a fake the benefit of the doubt, but when someone blatantly lies like that, then it's time to say
DON'T BUY FROM " SheSellsResale "

BTW, when you report it you might want to include the link to the Daria48 Fake Coach Numbers List that's been posted at Ebay for years, that serial number TN-9085 is right near the top and has been a known and verified "Always Fake" number since that list was first posted at the old Ebay Forums almost 10 years ago:

I'm not seeing anything wrong with this listing. What makes you think it is fake? It isn't a varsity rogue, it's a swagger. Seller also has a varsity Rogue listed. I'm not an expert on these newer styles so I might be missing something. I don't think there are enough photos to authenticate either bag.

Sorry I posted two links, the first link is for the varsity rogue. I own the exact same handbag. On the third photo that shows a close up of the hangtag, the stitching on the hangtag is atrociously uneven, and the photo that shows the price tag has a different format than the real rogue price tag. Furthermore, both of the photos she posted for the swagger and the rogue are photos that originated from the Chinese auction site taobao and the original seller was selling them for about $100 a piece.

The second photo in this listing is the cover photo the seller used. This listing is selling for about 600 yuan, which is less than $100. There are quite a few more from taobao with the rest of the photos.

Does Taobao even have an effective way of reporting fakes? I don't see anything on the translated page that looks like a reporting link. It looks like you have to be a member of Taobao or Alibaba to even get into the reporting site, and to also be the intellectual property owner.

Did the seller change or remove some photos? I'm not seeing a close up of the hangtag and the photos I'm seeing for the varsity rogue have a different background than the Chinese site, plus the handles are wrapped in her photos but not on the Chinese site. All of her Coach purse listings have different backgrounds, but the Swagger background is used again for a Vera Bradley. She may be stealing photos from various sites because she is too lazy to take her own pictures.

She originally had this listing with a stock photo from Coach: http://www.ebay.com/itm/new-with-ta...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Did Coach make two variations of the varsity rogue?

She changed her photos because I contacted her prior to posting on here. I wanted to give her a chance to remove the listing before reporting her since she seemed like an otherwise reputable seller (thousands of 100%) positive feedback. I probably shouldn't have told her what I thought was wrong with the bag (stitching on hangtag and wrong format on price tag) but I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt and thought she may have been duped by another seller. Clearly I was wrong because she posted another set of photos of the same bag except this time she specifically avoided photographing the hangtag up close and the price tag so other people cannot recognize that she's selling a fake bag.
You can still tell though because all the new rogues employ a new type hangtag (a tag made of a thick rectangular cardboard material attached to the bag by a black piece of string). If you search for coach rogue on ebay, many other sellers have photos of the new type of hangtag used for coach rogues. I confirmed with my sa at the local branch and she also said she's never seen a coach rogue with the original small price tags used for other coach bags. Also, coach never puts that ugly yellow duct tape on the feet of their bags. Many of the fake coach bags on taobao, however, also have the ugly yellow duct tape on the feet so I don't think that's a mere coincidence.
Further, if she's confident in the authenticity of her bags, there would be no reason to change her set of photos and specifically avoid photographing the parts that I raised questions about.

Not that I know of, taobao is not really known for protecting copyrights. More than 95% of stuff sold on there is fake. Plus sometimes it's incredibly hard to tell what's fake and what's real because the counterfeiters would often steal photos from elsewhere of authentic bags.
