Thank you so much. I hope I did this correctly.

It looks Good. Not quite "vintage" yet, but will be in about 2 years.

Nice! Authentic.

Nice! Authentic.

Thank you! Now the doomed hunt for a navy double strap...

We've seen that "Poppy" one before but I can't find the post (or maybe it was a PM that I deleted later?). That exact charm from exactly the same seller" lostdaydreambeliever " and a matching Safety Pin charm were added to my photo files under "FAKE Details" on Nov.22 2016.

The big problems - very poor quality and color "Swarovsky" crystals, and the Coach script name doesn't have that small loop at the top of the "o" like all other Script charms do except for some of the Pave and leather versions where it just would have been too hard to use it. And the shapes of ALL the letters in the Script charm are slightly "off".

Here are pics and thumbnails of the previous listing for the keychain and safety pin, plus a real Coach script charm with the loop.

ETA - and here's a listing by the same seller for a Script charm that has the right details and font:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-Large-...209377?hash=item1ec2340aa1:g:upgAAOSwopRYiUv1

She had at least 6 or 8 in different colors so I'm not even sure if they're genuine, but at least the font is right.

I didn't post it yesterday when her listing came up but my own records for LOSTDAYDREAMBELIEVER go back to mid-2014 when I first reported fakes from her and have seen fakes 12 more times since.

I don't recommend a seller who clearly doesn't verify authenticity of her items prior to listing.

I'm curious about this listing. The seller complained on ebay's member-to-member support board about a Coach bag that was removed.

I didn't see the original listing but I think it's the one she relisted and is also selling on Poshmark.

My concerns:

• Bean bag creed
• Illegible serial number
• spacing on creed doesn't appear correct as compared to authentic bean bag creeds
• hardware appears to be a mix of gold and silver
• creed appears too high on pocket and too close to zipper

fakefakefakefakefake.

Correct on the wrong creed spacing, also "Leatherware" is almost invisible on the real Bean Bag creed stamps. And biggest Gotcha of all is that Station Bags don't have zippers on the inside pockets.

Looks like "someone" removed the listing right after Fashionclubgurl and Albertabrightalberta posted at Ebay. Hope that means the seller " lizzmarie7 " is going to follow Ebay's rules in the future

They both look ok. Sometimes the creeds on early Station Bags were stamped in the big gusseted pocket instead of the small inside one - very early versions didn't even have an inside pocket.

It's good but it's not 1980s as described by the seller. I can't read the year code but I think it's 1996.
