Hello! Sorry I have another item for authentication.

Item: Coach Signature Crossgrain Leather Wallet F75365
Listing number: 272881442076

Comments: I know there’s a gift receipt but I still wanted your opinions. Thanks!

I have similar concerns with this seller and her listings as I do with the one above as most listings use stock photos "borrowed" from the designers' sites and minimal self-photographed images.

You're correct that receipts don't necessarily prove authenticity and it's always a good idea to ask about the item. Many of hozzcloset2017's listings show receipts from the Orlando, FL outlet mall, there are other listing(s) with outlet receipts from other states too. So while it's possible the seller may have traveled to the US and shopped outlets, I'm not comfortable unless many of her own pictures (between 6-12 images per listing) are shown.

Sorry I'm not more helpful but I've seen too many cases of items received not being those shown.
 
3. I'm not confident that the pictures are all her own. There are various backgrounds and photographing styles, not commonly seen with established sellers.

Thank you! This is my concern as well. It’s really hard to shop online here as fakes are abundant just like you’ve said, especially since this listing is so cheap.

I’ll ask for those photo just as you recommended and post here. Thanks!

I’ve asked the seller if the receipt will be included with the item and she said yes.

If I do get the receipt, is it already good? I could return the item or file for resolution if I don’t get the receipt.

I’m wary because this is my first (relatively) big purchase for a wallet. Thanks!

I don't see obvious problems but the receipt doesn't really prove much unless the wallet itself is authentic. (Receipts can be faked or genuine receipts from a different purchase can be used to "prove" authenticity of a fake.) It's the details of the wallet itself that prove whether the wallet is authentic.

I spent quite a bit of time looking at hozzcloset2017's listings and based on the pictures that appear to be her own, I do believe the wallet is authentic. If you buy it, post pictures here after you receive it if you have further concerns.

While I realize most of us aren't professional photographers but sellers need to realize that for credibility and seller integrity, they need to do the work involved in preparing their own listings and that includes taking their own pictures, writing their own descriptions in their own words and taking the measurements of their items. (Actual measurements are important because website measurements often don't match the actual items!)

Thanks for this!

I found her on Facebook as well. She does live in Florida and also runs a personal shopper business where you can order items you want. She seems legit.

Hello everyone hope you all had a wonderful holiday! I was wondering if you all could assist me, i picked this up at the thrift store with intentions on selling it but I'm not sure of its authenticity. Is this fake?

Is there anymore info you require to authenticate this as I have it in my possession now. I turned the pocket inside out and can’t find the little tag that is usually hidden there.
I'm not expert in new styles so I can't authenticate. I don't know if anyone can since this style is brand new. We don't have any examples of authentic bags to compare it with. It seems suspect that someone would already be selling it.

I don't see anything that indicates it's not authentic. It looks good to me.

This bag wouldn't have the little white tag hidden inside since the creed has a serial number.

Thank you both for your opinions. I really appreciate it. I was trying to compare it to my Prussian blue/ black one and my red one but they are both regular size and the blue one had the tag inside the pocket so I figured this one would too. And it wasn’t stamped on the bottom. I know there was another one of these posted in the reveals somewhere but for the life of me can’t find it through the search bar.

I thought there was a reveal of one too. The only one I can find is here: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...i-reveal-thread.856379/page-990#post-31832252 but it is only a single picture.
