Good morning ladies . If you could please take a look at this Murphy bag . Thank you so much! https://depop.app.link/vdFRyrXJMbb

I don't recognise the style at all. Not only is it impossible to authenticate, but there's a good chance it isn't genuine.


I DO NOT RECOMMEND buying that bag.

ETA - I have a vague recollection of someone asking about a similar bag with an Italy creed somewhere, maybe even at the Fashion board at Ebay. IIRC, one or two authenticators felt it wasn't genuine while "someone else" kept insisting that it was. I don't think the matter was ever decided, and as happens so often, "someone" may have thrown a hissy fit and the thread might even have been removed. I'll have to see if it's still there when I have some spare time.

Based on the comment, it sounds like "someone" was also referring to a post on TPF.

Hello, I don't believe this bag is a Coach. Can anyone confirm that? Thank you!

community.ebay.com

ETA: I have several fake Italy creeds in my records, each different from every other!

The bag shown looks fine but IMO, Depop is a lot like Poshmark in that sellers don't have to worry about the consequences of listing fakes so many sellers mix. (In fact, siesssss has a fake Kate Spade bag.)

Caveat emptor on Depop.

Hi, Can you please check the authenticity and name of this one, please? Not sure if it's a Dinky tote.

Thanks!

Please authenticate these coach bags. I purchased 2 Vintage Coach Dinky bags. They were both made in NYC.

Hello all! I’m new to the forum, but I’ve long been admiring vintage coach bags. After embarking on my first successful rehab (Whoo hoo!), I’m looking to start dabbling in collecting and rehabbing more seriously.

I love the shape of the Willis bag, and I’d like that to be the next bag I add to my small collection. Would any of you be willing to take a look at these bags and tell me if they’re legit? And maybe more importantly, if they’re not legit, can you help me understand why so that I can know what to look for in the future? Thank you in advance!

I purchased the items a while ago at different times from the goodwill. I don’t have the link since it was some time ago.
Thanks

The first 2 are authentic.

#3 from tpzwholesaler on Poshmark is fake as is this one from the same seller:

And in fact, tpzwholesaler on Poshmark is also known as evanmcgavin on ebay and all 3 of those fakes were reported and removed from ebay in the past few days.

is the same bag as the one asked about at Ebay on the same day but not the same as the hobo-style bag from yesterday's post. Even the creeds are different.

BUT - take a CLOSE look with your Elf Eyes and tell me what you see when you look at the Coach stamp on the outside of each one...

Oct 23, 2020 fake posted here and at Ebay that "someone" insisted was genuine:




and the hobo-style asked about yesterday





Now add some musical background in your mind. How about some classic Sinatra, his great hit "New Vork, New Vork"?

FAKEFAKEFAKEFAKE !!!!

Nope, you aren't going crazy.

There are certain discussions (read: arguments or debates) that stick in one's memory. And for me anyway, I also recall certain key words that help in the search!

Ya Done Good, BB!

I briefly thought of rubbing "someone's" nose in it but decided to be more civilised than he usually is. But I reserve the right to change my mind. Now we can add "New Vork" to those keywords if we need to find this discussion again.

Again. many thanks. I've been on a soup-making binge all day so haven't had a chance to check in. Hope you had a lovely holiday.
