DO NOT BUY FROM feetboutique !

She has all fakes, including a fake kate spade handbag that is copying a Coach legacy stripe bag! KS doesn't make legacy stripes! The fake Tory Burch is listed as simply black leather handbag.

Authentic or report?
Seller:Sabrinachantel

extremely rare vintage Coach monogram mini circle skirt baby blue 31" across

("Coach" on the label seems squished to me. Pretty sure I have better serger skills than this.)
It's a common fake label I've seen on clothing items - baseball caps, ties, etc. and now a fake skirt.

Did you notice the text on the content/care tag?
100% acrylic? I think not!!
"High class lady.
Very unique design."
And for cleaning instructions, at the top of the tag, it says "dry clean only." Down below it tells how to machine wash.

A friend gave me this small pouch and told me that she had gotten it a long time ago (she didn't say when or where) but had never used it. She knows that I like classic Coach bags and thought that I might be able to use it.

I was pleased to accept it and put it away for awhile, but I got it out today and it suddenly occurred to me that it might be fake! There is no tag or creed patch (but you don't always find them in SLGs) but the edging is sloppily trimmed in one area and some of the stitching is erratic.

Also, the hangtag looks a little funny to me. The lettering seems a bit too large and the cartouche is slightly slanted - but you do find genuine coach items with flaws occasionally, so I don't know. The zipper is stamped YKK but I know that's not conclusive. Please take a look and give me your opinion(s). Thanks in advance for your expert assistance!

I'm not feeling confident. The Coach imprint is a tiny bit too far from the edges and the back of the turnlock has indentations.

Please post a picture of the inside and lining.

I have the same reservations. I'd like to see the lining but the indentations are pretty damning.
